The Invisalign system is a series of clear aligners used to straighten teeth.
Will Invisalign treatment fit my lifestyle?
- Time for a snack? No problem. Take your aligners out to eat or drink whenever you want.
- Remove your aligners to brush and floss as usual, and keep your teeth and gums healthy.
- Pop them out now and then for a special night out.
- No need to change a thing. Keep up your day-to-day routine while your teeth straighten.
- Be yourself. Since the aligners are clear, you don't have to hide your smile during treatment.
- Getting picture-ready for a big occasion is easy with Invisalign treatment.
- Appointments work around your schedule, with a quick progress check about every six weeks.
What is the Invisalign system?
The Invisalign system is the virtually invisible way to straighten your teeth and reach the smile you've always wanted. It uses advanced 3D computer imaging to map your full treatment plan, from where your teeth start to where you want them to end up.
From there, a series of clear aligners is custom-made for your teeth, and your teeth only, to move them little by little. You wear each aligner for about two weeks before moving to the next, until your teeth reach their final position.
Your doctor sets your treatment time based on your specific needs.
What are the main benefits of Invisalign treatment?
Invisalign aligners are clear, so they blend right into your lifestyle and everyday interactions. They're also removable. Unlike braces, you can eat and drink whatever you like by simply taking the aligners out, then pop them back in after you brush and floss for fresh breath and good oral hygiene.
And because there are no metal brackets or wires, there's nothing to irritate your mouth. You'll also spend less time in the chair and scheduling visits, and more time doing what you love.
Best of all, the technology lets you preview your virtual results before you start, so you can see how your straight teeth will look once you're done.
