Invisalign aligners have changed the game when it comes to orthodontic treatment. It takes a completely different approach to straightening teeth and correcting bites, using a series of clear plastic aligners to gradually shift teeth over time instead of the traditional metal brackets and wires. These custom made aligners are designed to fit each patient's teeth perfectly, offering a comfortable and nearly invisible solution for teeth straightening.
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a revolutionary orthodontic treatment that uses clear plastic aligners to straighten teeth without the need for traditional metal braces. Unlike braces, Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, making them a popular choice for patients seeking a discreet and effective orthodontic solution. Invisalign treatment involves wearing a series of custom-made clear aligners that are designed to gradually shift teeth into proper alignment. With Invisalign, patients can achieve a beautiful, healthy smile without the hassle and discomfort of metal brackets and wires.
Benefits of Virtually Invisible Invisalign
Invisalign is popular with adults and teens because:
- It’s discreet. Even clear braces have a noticeable metal wire. Invisalign aligners are made with thin, clear plastic. Your coworkers and classmates won’t even know that you’re wearing them. Invisalign clear aligners offer a comfortable and convenient way to achieve a straight smile, using proprietary materials designed for effectiveness in fixing various orthodontic issues.
- It’s comfortable. Braces are bulky, with brackets that rub against your lips and wires that poke your cheeks. Invisalign fits right against your teeth for a more natural feel.
- It’s convenient. There’s no special diet or oral hygiene regimen with Invisalign. Simply take your aligners out and eat whatever you like and brush and floss like you normally would.
- It’s effective for straightening teeth. While there are some complicated cases that require traditional braces, for most patients Invisalign is just as effective as braces when it comes to straightening teeth and correcting bites.
Creating Your Custom Treatment Plan
At Mark S. Roisman, DMD, we use advanced technology to create a custom treatment plan tailored to your unique orthodontic needs. Our team will take digital impressions of your teeth and use specialized software to create a 3D model of your smile. This model will be used to plan the movement of your teeth and create a series of custom-made Invisalign aligners. With our expertise and state-of-the-art technology, you can trust that your treatment plan will be designed to achieve the best possible results.
How Invisalign Orthodontic Treatment Works
The Invisalign process begins with digital impressions. Dr. Roisman uses these to create a 3D model of your smile and plan how your teeth should move throughout your treatment. Invisalign is particularly effective for realigning crowded teeth, which can hinder effective brushing and flossing, leading to potential issues like tooth decay and gum disease. This plan is then sent to Invisalign, where your clear aligners are fabricated.
Once you have your aligners, you will switch to the next set about every two weeks, or as instructed by Dr. Roisman. You’ll visit our office every six weeks to ensure that your teeth are moving as planned. When treatment is complete, you’ll receive a set of Vivera retainers to make sure your beautiful new smile lasts a lifetime.
Wearing and Caring for Your Invisalign Aligners
To get the most out of your Invisalign treatment, it’s essential to wear your aligners for at least 20-22 hours a day. You can remove them for eating, brushing, and flossing, but be sure to clean them regularly to prevent bacterial buildup. We recommend using a soft-bristled toothbrush and mild soap to clean your aligners. It’s also important to store them in a protective case when not in use to prevent damage or loss. By following these simple care instructions, you can ensure that your Invisalign aligners remain effective and comfortable throughout your treatment.
