Invisalign® treatment offers a modern approach to straightening teeth through an innovative orthodontic solution. Unlike traditional braces, which use metal brackets and wires, Invisalign treatment involves a series of clear, plastic aligners that are both custom-made and virtually invisible. This treatment is tailored to fit snugly over your teeth, subtly and effectively enhancing your smile.
What is Invisalign Orthodontic Treatment?
Invisalign treatment is a cutting-edge orthodontic system designed to correct your dental alignment with minimal visual impact. Ideal for adults and teenagers seeking a less noticeable alternative to metal braces, Invisalign orthodontics provides a way to achieve a beautifully aligned smile without the typical inconveniences associated with braces. During your initial consultation, our skilled dentist will assess your specific needs to determine if Invisalign aligners are the best option for you.
How Invisalign Clear Aligners Work
The Invisalign system uses advanced 3D computer imaging technology to project the complete treatment plan from the initial position to the final desired position. This technology allows for the creation of custom-made aligners that fit exactly over your teeth. Each set of aligners is worn for about two weeks before moving on to the next set in the series, gradually shifting your teeth into the desired position. Regular checkups, typically every six weeks, ensure your treatment is progressing as planned.
Benefits of Invisalign Orthodontics
One of the primary benefits of Invisalign treatment is its discretion. The clear aligners are virtually invisible, which means most people will not even notice you are undergoing orthodontic treatment. Besides their aesthetic appeal, these aligners are removable, giving you the freedom to eat, brush and floss without restrictions. This not only facilitates better oral hygiene but also allows you to indulge in your favorite foods without worry.
Additionally, Invisalign clear aligners are made from a smooth, comfortable plastic that will not irritate your mouth and gums the way traditional metal braces might. This comfort, combined with the convenience of fewer dental appointments and a typically shorter treatment duration compared to metal braces, makes Invisalign treatment a favorable choice for many patients.
