What Is Invisalign®?
Invisalign is an advanced orthodontic system that uses a series of custom-made, clear aligners to gradually move your teeth into their ideal positions. Unlike traditional braces, which rely on metal brackets and wires, Invisalign aligners are made from smooth, comfortable plastic that is nearly invisible when worn. Designed using advanced 3D imaging technology, these aligners provide precise control over tooth movement throughout the treatment process.
- Custom-made aligners: Each set is tailored to fit your teeth and gradually shift them into place.
- Removable: Enjoy your favorite foods and maintain your oral hygiene with ease.
- Virtually invisible: Aligners are nearly undetectable, making them a popular choice for adults and teens.
Why Choose Invisalign®?
Invisalign offers several benefits that make it a preferred orthodontic treatment:
- Discreet treatment: The clear aligners are nearly invisible, allowing you to straighten your teeth without drawing attention.
- Comfort: Invisalign aligners are made from smooth, BPA-free plastic and are gentle on your gums and cheeks.
- Convenience: The removable aligners allow you to eat, drink, brush, and floss without restrictions.
- Fewer office visits: With Invisalign, you’ll need fewer visits to the dentist than you would with traditional braces.
- Predictable results: Advanced 3D imaging technology provides a clear view of your expected results before treatment begins.
The Invisalign® Process
The Invisalign process is straightforward and customized to fit your needs:
- 1. Initial consultation: Dr. Finley will evaluate your dental health, discuss your goals, and determine if Invisalign is the right option for you. Digital impressions are taken to create a custom treatment plan.
- 2. Personalized treatment plan: A detailed plan is created, outlining the movements of your teeth and the duration of your treatment. You’ll see a virtual representation of how your teeth will move so you know what to expect.
- 3. Custom aligners: Your aligners are fabricated to fit your teeth perfectly. Each set is worn for about two weeks before moving on to the next set.
- 4. Wearing your aligners: For best results, wear your aligners for 20 to 22 hours a day, only removing them to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
- 5. Progress monitoring: Regular check-ups with Dr. Finley every six to eight weeks will ensure your treatment is on track. These appointments are quick and easy.
- 6. Completion and retainers: Once your treatment is complete, you’ll receive retainers to maintain your new smile.
