Invisalign is the invisible way to straighten teeth. The clear, removable aligners allow you to eat and drink what you want while in treatment, plus brushing and flossing are no problem. The virtually invisible trays have been described by many patients as “sexy” and “amazing.” Invisalign treatment is also more comfortable than traditional braces, with no invisalign aubin grove metal or wires. Invisalign is a great option for adults and teens who want to improve their smiles without having to deal with the aesthetic or functional issues caused by metal wires and brackets.
Invisalign treatment is customized for each patient, with a unique series of clear aligner trays designed to gradually move your teeth into better alignment. The trays are made of smooth, clear material that is comfortable to wear. Invisalign is a fast and effective treatment for a range of bite problems, including overcrowded teeth, large gaps between teeth, crossbites, underbites, and more.
Unlike metal wires and brackets, Invisalign aligners apply gentle but constant pressure to your teeth, which helps to create a healthy, beautiful smile. During the Invisalign treatment process, you will need to visit our office for regular progress checks. At these appointments, your dentist will determine if you are ready to switch to the next set of aligners in your series. This is how your treatment will progress until you get the straight, beautiful smile you have always wanted.
How long does Invisalign Treatment take?
Each Invisalign treatment plan is different, and the length of time for your Invisalign treatment will depend on a number of factors, such as how well you stick to your treatment plan and how complex your teeth are. On average, Invisalign treatment lasts between 12 and 18 months. Once your Invisalign treatment is complete, you will need to wear a retainer regularly to prevent your teeth from shifting out of place.
Invisalign is a cost-effective treatment, with the average cost of Invisalign per patient falling below that of traditional braces. Invisalign is also covered by most medical insurance plans, although it is important to check with your specific insurance provider to make sure.
