"Invisalign" & Aligner Therapy
Clear aligners offer an aesthetic alternative to traditional metal braces and are suitable for adults!
Like traditional braces, aligners are designed to shift your teeth into their desired position gently. Before starting treatment, we will check your teeth and jaws using X-rays, photos, and digital scans.
With the information gathered, we will provide a diagnosis before designing your smile and treatment plan in the aligner software. This details which tooth moves where and in what order, guiding your teeth into healthy positions.
The actual aligners are created using your initial impressions or digital scans as the starting point.
Clear aligners aim to create a healthy bite by repositioning all teeth, not just the few that are seen when you smile. It is important to remember that moving teeth is a complex biological process and needs commitment.
On average, each set of aligners is worn for a week or two before switching to the next set. The total number of aligners will depend on your specific needs. Wearing them consistently and as instructed will help insure your teeth reach their ideal positions.
Remember, this can be done at ANY age!
It's never to late to feel confident in your smile.
