Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that straightens teeth without the use of metal braces. It works by applying controlled force to different parts of the teeth during different parts of the treatment, gradually loosening them and then gently guiding them to the correct position. Custom aligners help move teeth to a more optimal position, and it's not painful, but it feels a little uncomfortable. Invisalign is a series of transparent, custom-made orthodontic appliances that cover the teeth and, over time, gently place them in the correct position.
Because they are transparent and can be put on and taken off, they are less noticeable than traditional metal appliances. The x-rays, the 3D model and the images of the teeth are sent to the Invisalign laboratory, where the custom aligners are manufactured. It's best to soak Invisalign aligners in a specialized cleaning solution to keep them clean. Before receiving Invisalign clear aligners, you'll have a consultation with us to discuss your smile goals and what you can expect from treatment. Taking into account mild to moderate malocclusion (defined as crowding and spacing of up to 6 mm, and overbite and overbite of up to 6 mm and assuming one-week use), treatment times vary depending on the type of Invisalign product, the time of use and the complexity of the case, and will be determined by the doctor. With Invisalign clear braces, there are no metal braces or cables that could detract from your smile during treatment.
According to the Invisalign website, the cost of Invisalign treatment is similar to the cost of traditional braces. Although Invisalign is normally painless, you may feel like your teeth are loose while wearing the aligners. Invisalign clear aligners are made of BPA-free plastic and are much more comfortable than traditional metal braces. Talk to your orthodontist or dentist about your teeth, what type of orthodontic treatment you may need, and if Invisalign is a good option for you. If you have a flexible spending account (FSA), you can also use it to pay for some of the costs of Invisalign treatment.
With Invisalign clear braces, your teeth can be comfortable, beautiful and precisely aligned in half the time they would need with traditional braces. While Invisalign aligners may not be completely invisible, these clear liners fit tightly to the teeth and are much less noticeable than the brackets and wires of traditional orthodontic appliances. In addition to placing the teeth in their correct position, Invisalign solves a variety of problems such as gaps in the teeth, overbites and underbites, overcrowding and cross-bites.
