What Is Invisalign?

a woman puts invisalign inInvisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to shift your teeth into straighter positions. These aligners are made from a smooth, BPA-free plastic material that is virtually invisible when worn. Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign aligners are comfortable, and you can remove them for eating, brushing, and flossing.

Benefits of Invisalign Clear Aligners

Many patients prefer aligners for Invisalign’s advantages over traditional braces, including:

  • Discreet: The clear aligners are nearly invisible, allowing you to straighten your teeth without drawing attention to your treatment.
  • Comfortable: No metal brackets or wires to irritate your mouth.
  • Removable: You can take them out for eating, brushing, and flossing.
  • Effective: Invisalign can treat various orthodontic issues, from mild crowding to more complex cases.
  • Convenient: Fewer office visits are required compared to traditional braces.

Candidates For Invisalign

Invisalign can be an excellent option for adults and teenagers with mild to moderate orthodontic issues who want to improve their smiles. Some common problems that Invisalign can address include:

  • Crowded teeth
  • Gaps between teeth
  • Overbite
  • Underbite
  • Crossbite

The Invisalign Process at Bertie Dental Office and Ridgeway Dentistry

The Invisalign Consultation

Your Invisalign journey at Bertie Dental Office and Ridgeway Dentistry begins with a comprehensive consultation. Dr. Inigo will thoroughly evaluate your dental health and orthodontic needs to determine if Invisalign is the right treatment option for you. He’ll also discuss your goals and expectations for your smile transformation.

Creating Your Treatment Plan

If you’re a candidate for Invisalign, the next step is creating your customized treatment plan. Using advanced 3D imaging and digital scanning technology, Dr. Inigo will map out the precise movements required to shift your teeth into their desired positions. This comprehensive plan will outline each stage of your treatment, from your first aligner to the final result.

Aligner Fabrication and Treatment

Once your treatment plan is finalized, your unique series of clear Invisalign aligners will be custom-fabricated to fit your teeth precisely. You’ll receive your first set of aligners and instructions on how to wear and care for them properly. Approximately every two weeks, you’ll switch to the next set of aligners in your series, gradually moving your teeth into alignment.

Progress Monitoring

Throughout your Invisalign treatment, Dr. Inigo and our team will closely monitor your progress during regular check-up appointments. These visits allow us to ensure your teeth are moving according to plan and make any necessary adjustments to your aligner series. With our expertise and guidance, you can feel confident that your Invisalign treatment is on track.

Invisalign Care Guide

To get the most out of your Invisalign treatment, it’s essential to follow these simple care tips:

  • Wear your aligners for 20 to 22 hours daily, removing them only for eating, brushing, and flossing.
  • Clean your aligners regularly with a soft-bristled toothbrush and mild soap.
  • Avoid eating or drinking anything except water while wearing your aligners.
  • Store your aligners in their case when not in use to prevent damage or loss.
