A Revolutionary Alternative To Braces

Invisalign

Invisalign is a modern alternative to braces and perfect for you if you want to straighten your teeth. We understand that not all people are happy with the appearance of their teeth, so they want effective solution to straighten them. You are in luck, because Invisalign is a modern approach to straighten your teeth and comes with more benefits than braces.

Invisalign involves the use of aligner trays made from flat, comfy and almost undetectable plastic. This plastic is placed over your teeth in a secure fashion. Here is how it works: when you wear the aligners, they will steadily and moderately budge your teeth into ideal places.

The reason why we recommend Invisalign to our patients is that it uses no metal supports for attachment. It also doesn’t involve the use of wires to tighten it in place. Moreover, you get to replace the aligners after almost every two weeks.

Invisalign Versus Braces

Why wear large metal braces and visible wires on your teeth when you can get straight teeth without any difficulty with Invisalign. Remember, we never recommend braces, because they are visible, ugly, uncomfortable and difficult to clean. Additionally, braces can make your teeth and mouth painful besides discoloring your teeth. Invisalign is a perfect substitute for braces and comes with several advantages. It is comfortable, invisible when you wear it, can be easily cleaned and replaced, does not involve the use of wire and cannot make your mouth sore.

The Treatment Process

The treatment process starts when you choose a dentist who is highly experienced in Invisalign. Remember, you should select your dentist judiciously because you will be interacting with him or her regularly. Your dentist should be someone with whom you can feel comfortable. The good news is that we have highly trained and experienced dentists who can treat you in a very comfortable setting.

Your dentist will take X-ray, photos and impression of your teeth and then a digital 3D image will be developed out of the data. We will use the 3D image to craft a detailed treatment plan for you. We will take into account the accurate movements of your teeth and then tell you how long the treatment would take. Additionally, we will show you a virtual demonstration of how the movements of your teeth will change with each phase of the treatment.

Although every individual has unique needs and teeth problems, the treatment can normally take about a year in case of adult patients.

We will make custom aligners based on your unique treatment plan. The aligners will be comfortable to wear. You will be required to come to our clinic to change the aligners after every two weeks. We will also occasionally examine your progress throughout the treatment process.

At the end of your treatment, you will get beautiful smile that lasts forever.
