Invisalign® is a very popular orthodontic treatment which focuses on straightening your teeth over a series of clear plastic aligners that are custom designed and fitted to you. Overall the treatment is fast, comfortable and a convenient alternative for straightening your teeth, since the aligners are virtually invisible and require no obstructive metal appliances.
Our practice has years of experience providing Invisalign® treatment using sophisticated technology to simulate your new smile. See below to understand the full Invisalign® process.
During Invisalign treatment, you will switch to a new aligner every two weeks. This ensures there is no pain or discomfort from tightening or adjusting metal supports. It’s advised to wear Invisalign aligners for at least 20-22 hours per day, removing them only when necessary for daily activities like eating, drinking, and brushing your teeth. The entire Invisalign process can take as little as a few months or up to a year, depending on the severity of your individual case.
Advanced software developed from over 5 million Invisalign cases plans the movements for your teeth. Integrated Dental Care utilizes cutting-edge technology, known as iTero® or Trios Digital Impression System, to model your teeth in a 3-D environment. This indicates what your teeth will look like over the course of your Invisalign treatment.
Using this model, another sophisticated software known as ClinCheck® is employed to calculate the series of movements, forces, and pressure needed to shift your teeth into their desired position with Invisalign. This allows Invisalign technicians to create a personalized series of custom aligners designed to effectively and comfortably move your teeth over the specified treatment period.
A treatment plan that prioritizes aligning teeth in the shortest possible time frame is ideal for patients with mild dental issues or those who have previously undergone orthodontic treatment.
