Invisalign

Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that uses a series of custom-made, clear plastic aligners to gradually straighten teeth and realign the smile. Invisalign aligners are preferred by patients for their convenience because they are removable and more comfortable and discreet than traditional metal braces. 

What Is Invisalign?

Invisalign orthodontic treatment consists of a series of custom-fitted aligners designed to gradually move your teeth and straighten your smile. These aligners are removable and comfortable since they have no metal parts. And the best part is they are completely transparent so no one will notice you’re straightening your smile!

Throughout your treatment with Invisalign, you will wear one set of aligners for about two weeks during which your teeth are gradually but steadily moved. After that time, you will then switch to the next set in the series to further move your teeth to the next stage. You should only remove the aligners when you eat and when you brush and floss your teeth. Each set of aligners will move your teeth closer to their ideal positions over the course of your treatment. 

Our dentist in Chandler will see you every four weeks to ensure your treatment is progressing as planned and provide the next set of aligners when needed. Invisalign treatment typically takes 12 to 18 months.

What Orthodontic Issues Is Invisalign Recommended For?

Invisalign is efficient in the treatment of a variety of orthodontic and bite issues, including: 

• Crooked teeth
• Crowded teeth 
• Overbite
• Underbite
• Crossbite
• Teeth gaps 
• Open bite

While Invisalign is an effective orthodontic treatment, it may not be the suitable solution for certain patients. When you come in for your consultation, our dentist in Chandler can help you determine if Invisalign is the most effective option for your concerns. 

Advantages of Invisalign Treatment

The number one advantage of Invisalign treatment is that the aligners are clear. This means patients can get their teeth straightened without anyone noticing. Another major advantage is that Invisalign aligners can be removed before eating, brushing, and flossing, making it easy for patients to do each of these. Patients do not have to worry about dietary restrictions or complicated oral hygiene routines with Invisalign. 

In addition, patients will have to visit the dentist less frequently than they would with traditional braces since Invisalign does not require wires to be tightened or brackets to be realigned.
