What issues can Invisalign help with?
Do you think you are too old to straighten your teeth? Invisalign is the perfect choice for removing the social stigma for many teens and adults looking for orthodontic treatment. Invisalign aligners are created from BPA-free, clear plastic, making your treatment nearly invisible. This way, you can perfect your smile even in your 30s, 40s, and even 50s without the embarrassment of metal in your mouth.
Although Invisalign has limitations, our dentist can use the treatment to resolve numerous orthodontic issues. Visit our dentist today if you have problems with:
- Spacing
- Alignment
- Malocclusions like overbites, underbites, and cross bites
- Overcrowding
At one time, Invisalign was only used to correct mild issues and relapsed teeth after failing to wear a retainer. However, it has improved over the last few years and is now a powerful orthodontic solution. Modern Invisalign can address complex dental issues, just like traditional braces. Add-ons like SmartForce attachment allow treatment for complex dental problems that were only possible with metal braces.
How does Invisalign treatment work?
The treatment starts with a consultation with our dentist. We’ll examine your teeth to ensure they are healthy and resolvable with Invisalign clear aligners. The dentist will then take digital scans of your smile and use Invisalign software to devise a personalized treatment plan.
Once you are happy with your simulated treatment plan, we’ll send your digital records to an Invisalign lab to fabricate your aligners. You can start treatment immediately after receiving your aligners. Although removable, the aligners must be worn for at least 22 hours daily. You’ll progress through treatment by graduating from one set of aligners to the next until you achieve your desired goals.
During your treatment, attend routine check-ups with your dentist to monitor progress and make any adjustments if necessary. Continue your daily oral hygiene routine to prevent infections, tooth decay, and other issues. Invisalign corrects issues within 12-18 months, although your dentist will determine the exact period. Once orthodontic treatment ends, teeth begin moving again, so wearing a retainer is essential to avoid an orthodontic relapse.
