We’ll take of your teeth and jaws, photos of your smile, and impressions of your teeth.
We’ll create a treatment plan and send it to the lab.
There, your information will be digitized into a 3-D model of your case, and your aligners will be fabricated. Each set is designed to gradually move your teeth into their proper positions.
The aligners also have a power ridge that, where needed, puts extra force on certain teeth to encourage necessary root movement.
You’ll wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, and then replace them with the next set in the series.
Treatment time varies, but most people receive 12 to 25 sets.
To help teens remember to wear them, the aligners have a blue dot. When worn as directed, the dark blue dot fades to light blue. Teens, parents, and doctors can tell that the teens are wearing them as instructed.
The aligners have no metal, so they’re more comfortable than traditional braces. They can be taken out for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. You can wear them while playing sports, or brass or wind instruments. They are nearly invisible, so teens don’t have to be self-conscious about wearing metal braces. But, you must remember to wear them almost 24 hours a day.

What material are Invisalign aligners made of? Are they comfortable?
Invisalign aligners are made out of SmartTrack material, a plastic material often made from polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) which is a clear, durable and flexible material. Invisalign is known to be a lot more lightweight and comfortable than traditional braces. The smooth plastic of the aligners eliminates the possibility of your skin, tongue, lips, etc. from getting caught in the metal brackets traditional braces are made from.
Is Invisalign as effective as traditional metal braces?
The short answer is yes, Invisalign are just as effective as traditional braces in straightening your smile. In fact, it is believed in moderate and mild cases, Invisalign actually works better than traditional metal braces as they apply pressure all around the teeth in order to move them, where as traditional braces pull from a specific point on a tooth where the bracket has been attached. It is important to note, that in more sever situations of over-crowding and crookedness, metal braces may be needed to straighten the teeth.
