What's the Process for Starting Invisalign?

 

Are you starting Invisalign treatment? 

Are you nervous about this big change in your life?

Invisalign is the go-to choice for many orthodontic patients, and it could be the right choice for you too!

Here's how it works:

• Custom-Made Aligners: your 3-D scan allows Invisalign and your orthodontist to design your first set of custom-made aligners to begin shaping your straighter smile. The bpa-free, non-irritating plastic trays help you avoid some of the discomfort that can be associated with braces.
  
  
• All Day and Night: you’ll wear your aligners all day and night to make the process as efficient as possible.
  
  
• Eating and Cleaning: only remove the aligners when you eat and to brush your teeth. When you brush, make sure you clean you Invisalign aligners, too!
  
  
• Upgrades: every few weeks, you get a new set of aligners which targets a set group of teeth according to the treatment plan devised by your orthodontist. Each set moves your teeth about ¼ mm.

Starting Invisalign? Here’s How it Works

Are you beginning Invisalign treatment in 2021?

Did you choose Invisalign because of its less invasive, more appealing approach to making your smile more beautiful?

Many people choose Invisalign for themselves and their teens because of its invisible equipment, removable aligners that make it easier to floss and brush, and the benefit of no food restrictions that typically come with traditional braces.

Invisalign is the go-to choice for many orthodontic patients, but you still might be wondering… how does Invisalign work compared to traditional braces?

Why Do You Need an Orthodontist?

Straight, beautiful teeth are just one if the outward signs of orthodontic treatment, but there are many other reasons to continue seeing your orthodontist!

Orthodontic treatment isn’t just about straightening your teeth. It also includes:
