Get the Perfect Smile
Invisalign are aligners that rectify crooked teeth and improper bites. The plastic devices are removable, which means you can continue with regular dental care like flossing and brushing conveniently.
Maintaining them is also easy. At Denwest Dental Clinic, we use clear Invisalign to help straighten your teeth, but we conduct an assessment before recommending the product. You can set up biweekly appointments for us to keep track of your progress and adjust the treatment plan where necessary.
The main advantage of Invisalign is that they do not require changing bands or tightening wires. However, you may feel slight pain when using them because of the pressure they exert as they straighten the teeth. Compared to braces, Invisalign is less painful, and it gets better as you become used to having them. The products also provide discretion as you use them, meaning you can wear one to a meeting or social gathering without worrying about their conspicuous visibility.
Typically, you wear the aligners for approximately two weeks before the dentist switches them for one that suits the current alignment. You may end up using several aligners before getting the smile you desire. Our dentists can help you get custom Invisalign that matches your exact needs.
Since each individual has a different dental formula, the amount of time it takes before seeing results from the treatment differs. Most people will start seeing improvements between 6 to twelve weeks. Please note that it might take you up to six months before results become noticeable, depending on the displacement of the teeth. It requires patience and commitment to achieve the expected perfection. Our dentist will be with you throughout, no matter how long it takes. We can determine the approximate duration when you come in for an assessment.
Despite their effectiveness, Invisalign is not for every person with crooked teeth. Collaborate with us, and we will give you the perfect teeth you deserve.
Invisalign aligners are made of a clear, smooth, and virtually invisible plastic material (usually a patented thermoplastic called SmartTrack®). This makes them less noticeable compared to traditional metal braces.
Each set of Invisalign aligners is custom-made for the individual patient. The treatment plan is developed based on digital impressions, X-rays, and photographs of the patient’s teeth.
The orthodontist creates a detailed digital treatment plan, specifying the movement of each tooth over the course of the treatment. This plan guides the fabrication of a series of aligners.
Patients wear each set of aligners for a specified period, typically about two weeks. Each aligner exerts controlled forces on the teeth, gradually moving them into the desired position.
One of the significant advantages of Invisalign is that the aligners are removable. This feature allows patients to take them out for eating, brushing, and flossing. However, it’s important to wear the aligners for at least 20-22 hours a day to achieve optimal results.
Invisalign aligners are generally more comfortable than traditional braces. They lack sharp metal components that can cause irritation and sores in the mouth.
Patients typically visit their orthodontist every few weeks to receive the next set of aligners and to ensure the treatment is progressing as planned.
The duration of Invisalign treatment varies depending on the complexity of the orthodontic issues. On average, treatment may take about 9-18 months.
Invisalign can be used to address a variety of orthodontic issues, including crowded teeth, spacing issues, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. However, severe cases may still require traditional braces or other orthodontic interventions.
After completing the Invisalign treatment, patients are often required to wear retainers to help maintain the newly achieved alignment.
