Here’s how!
How Does Invisalign Work?
Invisalign LogoInvisalign involves the use of several different aligners custom fit to your teeth. When you begin the process, you’ll visit us to have moulds taken of your teeth that will then be shipped to a highly experienced laboratory. There, your moulds will be turned into a series of aligners that you’ll wear for 22 hours each day.
The number of aligners included in your care plan will vary based on your needs, though one aligner is typically worn for a few weeks at a time before you receive a new one.
Invisalign also requires less visits to our practice, which is great for your pocketbook and schedule. Of course, we’ll always be here for you if you need any advice or are having issues with your aligners.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Invisalign painful?
We’re happy to report that most patients don’t find Invisalign painful at all. When you receive a new aligner, you may notice a bit of pressure during the first few hours to days of wearing it as it will be tighter and designed to move your teeth into better alignment. This should subside relatively quickly. If you find that your aligners are hurting you more than usual, let us know and we’ll be happy to take a look to make sure there are no issues going on.
How long will it take to see results?
A typical course of Invisalign differs from patient to patient, though the average course of care runs roughly 12-24 months. Because each patient is unique, we’ll be able to get a better idea of your length of time when you visit us for your first appointment.
How much does Invisalign cost?
This also depends on the length of your required care plan to achieve the best results for your smile. When you visit us for your first appointment, we’ll go over the financial details with you so you can know exactly what to expect. We also pride ourselves on offering payment plans for patients of every budget.
Who is a good candidate for Invisalign?
A good candidate for Invisalign is someone who wants to correct slightly misaligned teeth, those with minor bite problems, or those with slight gaps. Invisalign typically isn’t the best treatment for severely misaligned teeth or excess crowding. Adults are typically better candidates than children, as a child or teen’s teeth may still be shifting and their jaw still changing.
