What Are Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are an excellent orthodontic option for patients looking for a straighter, healthier smile without the hassle of traditional braces. While braces rely on a system of noticeable metal brackets and wires, the Invisalign system, and clear aligner systems like it, use a series of clear, thin plastic aligners that sit over your teeth and slowly shift them into their proper place. Each set of aligners are worn for approximately two weeks and are computer generated and custom made to fit your specific smile’s needs, making incremental changes to the alignment of your teeth that culminate in dramatically improved results.
From adult professionals who want to straighten their teeth discreetly to teens worried about the way traditional braces will affect their diet and lifestyle, Invisalign is a good choice for a virtually invisible orthodontic treatment. In addition to being low profile, clear aligners are also removable, so you can eat, brush and floss just as you typically would.
What Can Invisalign Do for Me?
There are very few orthodontic concerns typically addressed by traditional braces that Invisalign cannot also resolve. Invisalign may be the right option for you if you are concerned about any of the following:
- Overcrowding
- Crooked teeth
- Gaps or spaces between teeth
- Overbites, underbites, open bites or crossbites
What Does the Invisalign Process Look Like?
After your initial consultation with our dentist, during which we will help you determine whether Invisalign treatment is right for you, our team will start by taking an impression of your smile and creating a treatment plan. This impression will be used to create your individualized clear aligners moving forward, making sure the fit is comfortable and effective. As you go through the Invisalign treatment, our dentist will invite you back to the office for regular check-ins to receive your new aligners and ensure the treatment is progressing as planned.
