For any crooked, overcrowded teeth, Invisalign can straighten smiles. Through using gradual movements, the clear aligners bring your teeth into alignment, neatening teeth and filling in gaps. Invisalign is suitable for orthodontic situations with mild to moderate spacing or crowding. There are certain situations for which Invisalign would not be recommended. However, we would be glad to discuss this option with you.
We are a fully certified Invisalign Go provider.
It may take a few days to adjust to the aligners, and you might notice a slight lisp initially. However, you’ll soon be speaking clearly and confidently as you get used to them.
Absolutely! Invisalign aligners are crafted for comfort, allowing you to wear them easily for up to 22 hours a day. They fit securely over your teeth without metal brackets or wires, ensuring a smooth and irritation-free experience.
For the best results, you should wear your aligners for approximately 22 hours each day. You can remove them for eating, drinking, brushing, and during contact sports.
If you lose an aligner, contact us immediately for guidance. While waiting, wear an aligner from your previous set to maintain alignment. Depending on your situation, we may recommend moving to your next set of aligners right away.
The duration of Invisalign treatment varies, typically ranging from 9 to 18 months. Simpler cases may be completed more quickly, while more complex issues may require longer treatment. After your initial consultation, we can provide an estimate of your expected treatment timeline.
Yes, retainers are essential to maintain your teeth’s new positions after Invisalign treatment. Since teeth can shift over time, you’ll need to wear retainers part-time, typically overnight, to keep them straight. Depending on your needs, you’ll receive either fixed or removable retainers.
