How Invisalign Works

The first step of the Invisalign process is the consultation, which is when we will learn all about your dental needs and determine if you’re a good candidate. If you are, then we will take impressions of your teeth so a custom series of clear aligners can be made. Each one is designed to move your teeth a step closer to their properly aligned positions, and you need to keep them on for a minimum of 20 hours a day to stay on-track with your treatment plan. Every 7-14 days, you’ll progress to the next set in the series and, before you know it, you’ll have the straight smile you’ve always wanted!

Who Invisalign Can Help

Good news: Invisalign is quite versatile. So, if you are ready to leave overcrowding and other common orthodontic problems in the past, don’t hesitate to schedule a consultation with us. In the meantime, you can read on to learn more about who Invisalign can help.

Crowded Teeth

If your teeth overlap, food particles and other debris can easily get trapped inside. Don’t worry though – Invisalign clear aligners can guide your teeth into their properly aligned positions, improving your oral health and self-esteem in the process.

Gaps Between Teeth

Are your teeth spaced out? If so, you’re at an increased risk of experiencing common oral health problems, like cavities. That’s why we recommend exploring your treatment options, like Invisalign. If you’re a candidate for clear aligners, then we can gently close the gaps without the metal.

Bite Alignment

One misconception about Invisalign is that it can’t correct common bite problems, like overbites. That’s not the case! In fact, when used in tandem with rubber bands and other orthodontic accessories, clear aligners can correct underbites, crossbites, and open bites as well.

The Benefits of Invisalign

  • Shorter average treatment timelines
  • Fewer check-in visits
  • No dietary restrictions
  • Hassle-free dental care
