What is Invisalign®?

Invisalign is a teeth-straightening procedure using innovative clear plastic retainers. Discreet and removable, they give you more control over your dental health and many people say they feel much less self-conscious wearing them.

You receive several weeks’ worth of retainers at a time, so no need for multiple time-consuming brace fittings. Instead, you actively participate in your treatment by switching out your retainers every 10 days.

Invisalign has transformed teeth-straightening for adults. Call Neighborhood Dentistry PC to find out how.

How will Invisalign clear aligners straighten my smile?​

Like traditional braces, Invisalign clear aligners are designed to straighten your teeth in a relatively short time period. Invisalign clear aligners can straighten your smile in as little as six to 18 months. However, they cannot correct complex dental issues, such as a severe overbite, underbite, or misalignment problem.

What makes Invisalign unique is that its clear aligners are almost entirely invisible. They are also more comfortable than traditional braces and cause less mouth irritation, as you don’t have to worry about metal brackets rubbing up against the inside of your cheeks.

Unlike their metal counterparts, these clear aligners are removable, so you can take them out to brush your teeth, eat, and drink. This means clear aligners are considered to be more hygienic than traditional braces.

What is the Invisalign process like?

Once you decide on Invisalign clear aligners to straighten your smile, your dentist will take a digital impression of your mouth, eliminating the need for messy, uncomfortable physical molds. These digital scans are extremely precise and believed to be more accurate than traditional impressions.

These 3D images of your teeth are used as a model to design and fabricate your customized aligners. After your aligners are ready, your dentist will fit you for your first set. Every few weeks, you will graduate to a new set as your teeth shift. Your dentist will work with you every step of the way to ensure your aligners are making progress.

What is the Invisalign process like?

Invisalign’s success relies on you sticking to your prescribed regimen. You’re a good candidate for Invisalign if you agree with the following statements:

  • You practice excellent oral health
  • You don’t smoke
  • You have all of your adult teeth

If you want to straighten your smile without the hassle of traditional braces, Invisalign may be the right fit for you. Call Neighborhood Dentistry PC to book your appointment or learn more.
