A set of clear aligners are worn during the Invisalign process to gradually straighten teeth. There are no metal brackets or wires on these removable and fitted aligners. They are made of the patented thermoplastic material SmartTrack®, which securely fits your teeth. Since each aligner in the sequence promotes a slightly different position than the one before it. The overall correction improves consistently and gently.
Prior to starting Invisalign, a patient must have a consultation to go over the course of treatment and have their teeth examined. During this appointment, we will create a precise, personalized digital treatment plan that demonstrates to the patient how their smile will change over time. In order to construct an accurate model, we will collect digital scans, X-rays, and photos of the patient’s teeth and mouth after they give their approval for the plan. For the creation of specially sized trays, this information is sent to the Invisalign laboratory.
Invisalign trays are usually provided within four weeks. Once we have taken impressions or scans of the patient’s teeth, we must send them to Invisalign Laboratory along with recommendations on how the treatment should proceed. The company will then decide on the ideal number of trays and send us the specs.
Any adjustments that are required will be made, and the labratory will be emailed a copy. The trays will be prepared in the factory and then uniquely shaped by lab technicians to match the patients’ gumline. There is a waiting period before a patient can start treatment, but this step assures that the treatment will be efficient and comfortable.
The clean, practically unnoticeable appearance of Invisalign is one of its major benefits. Patients can eat and drink without limitation because the clear aligners are simple to take out for mealtime. Since there are no metal wires in the way after the device is removed, wearers may effortlessly clean their teeth. Better dental health and hygiene result from straighter teeth because they are simpler to keep clean. Teeth that are misaligned might collect dirt and bacteria that lead to cavities and gum disease. When left untreated, this may result in a number of issues, including gum disease and tooth loss.
The greatest candidates are typically adults and teenagers because their bones and teeth are completely or mostly grown. Patients with less severe crowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, and cross-bites benefit more with Invisalign treatment. Someone who has significantly misaligned teeth, a bad bite, or large gaps may benefit from a different method of treatment.
