What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is an orthodontic procedure that uses clear aligners instead of metal braces to straighten teeth. Invisalign is a system of clear braces that cover your teeth and gradually move them into the right position. They are less obvious than typical metal braces because they are clear and can be taken on and off.
Most people wish to improve their smile but believe that metal braces are the only way to do it. There are no metal brackets or wires to distract from your smile while wearing Invisalign clear braces. Your teeth can be comfortable, beautiful, and precisely aligned in half the time it would take with traditional braces with Invisalign transparent braces. Whether you’re a parent looking into orthodontic treatment for your kid or an adult who has been putting off treatment for years, Invisalign is a great option.

Advantage of Invisalign?
Clear braces with aligners, like as Invisalign, provide our patients benefits such as:
- Appliances that are undetectable
- You have the freedom to eat whatever you want.
- Fewer and shorter visits to the dentist
- Treatment that is relaxing
- Home care that is less difficult
- Results that are digitally mapped and predictable
Food restrictions are one of the worst parts about teeth straightening with many orthodontic options. Some of your favorite foods are off limits, which can really ruin a special celebration, anything too hard, chewy, or sticky is off limits! These issues are not a problem for Invisalign. You can remove the trays and eat whatever you want!
Why Invisalign?
1- Treatment times can be reduced by up to 50%*. You’ll be on your road to the smile you want even faster if you change your aligners on a weekly basis.
2- Results that have been proven. Clinical studies have shown that SmartTrack® material and SmartForce® features result in 75 percent more predictable tooth movement.
3- Better fit equals more comfort. SmartTrack aligners are more comfortable, better fitting, and easier to put on and take off than traditional aligners.
4- Effective in a wide range of situations. SmartTrack aligners are more comfortable, better fitting, and easier to put on and take off than traditional aligners.
5- For teenagers, this is a unique characteristic. To help evaluate wear duration, Invisalign clear aligners for teens have compliance markers that fade from blue to clear.
Invisalign is suitable for both teenagers and adults. Overbite, underbite, open bite, crossbite, and overcrowded teeth are all treated with these transparent braces. We can discuss whether Invisalign is the best orthodontic treatment for you after an examination and x-rays of your teeth.
If Invisalign is correct for you, we’ll use the exam, as well as x-rays and a 3D model of your teeth, to create a custom treatment plan for you. The treatment plan specifies how your teeth will shift and how long it will take to achieve proper alignment. The x-rays, 3D model, and photos of your teeth are transmitted to the Invisalign laboratory, which creates your personalized aligners. You’ll be able to see how Invisalign will gradually correct your orthodontic troubles thanks to the 3D representation of your teeth.
You come to our clinic to check for fit and make any required modifications after receiving your first set of aligners. Except when you eat, floss, or clean your teeth, you will wear your aligners all day, every day. Because Invisalign braces are removable, you can take them off whenever you need to throughout the day.
Invisalign is simple to use and blends into your daily routine. You will place the clear braces over your teeth once you receive your aligners. Each pair of aligners will be worn for two weeks before being replaced with the next set. Because your aligners are meant to softly and accurately reposition your teeth, they will initially fit snugly. Your teeth will gradually shift to a new place after a few days. After some time has passed, you will find that your aligners are a little loose. Don’t switch them out too soon, even if they start to feel loose. Wear them for the whole of the two-week period. This allows your teeth and gums to acclimate to their new position. Changing aligners too soon will jeopardize your treatment strategy.
Every six weeks, you will visit our clinic for a check-up on your aligners and the status of your treatment. These exams also allow us to see if any alterations to the aligners or your treatment plan are required.
The fact that Invisalign aligners are so comfortable to wear is one of the biggest reasons to invest in them. Remember that your teeth are changing into a new position, so some discomfort is to be expected, especially with the initial set of aligners. When you first put on a new set of aligners, the pressure you feel on your teeth will gradually fade over the course of a few days. Please contact us if you are experiencing any substantial discomfort or pain. To ensure a correct fit, we’ll schedule a consultation with you to examine your teeth, gums, and aligners.
The usual treatment period for Invisalign is one year, but this varies depending on the patient’s age and unique demands. Because each situation is unique, you’ll be given an estimated treatment time after your teeth are evaluated and digital photos are taken.
Invisalign Advantages Over Traditional Braces
It’s crucial to understand the benefits of Invisalign over traditional braces when choosing your orthodontic treatment alternatives.
These are transparent braces. The majority of people will not notice you are wearing them.
When compared to traditional braces, Invisalign allows for more accurate tooth movement.
With Invisalign, maintaining good oral health is a lot easier. When you eat, clean your teeth, and floss, you will take out the aligners.
Metal braces are far more uncomfortable than these aligners. Your teeth and gums are not irritated by them.
Invisalign allows you to save time. You will have fewer checks with Invisalign than with braces, which require more frequent appointment visits to change the arch wire and make adjustments. Treatment times are frequently shortened as well.
We recommend wearing a retainer after any orthodontic treatment, whether it’s Invisalign or something else. The purpose of a retainer is to keep your teeth aligned. Your teeth may gradually revert to their previous position if you don’t use it. If your teeth begin to shift, you may need to realign them temporarily with aligners. We’ll figure out which form of retainer is appropriate for you based on your specific needs.
