Invisalign®

What Can Invisalign Treat?

In general, we can use Invisalign aligners to treat the same orthodontic issues that braces normally treat. Our dentists may recommend Invisalign treatment to correct the following:

• Crowded teeth
• Crooked teeth
• Gapped and spaced teeth
• Specific problems with the bite, such as an overbite, open bite, underbite, or crossbite

What Are the Benefits of Invisalign

This treatment is often a good choice for adult patients and others interested in a virtually invisible orthodontic treatment. In addition to being discreet, Invisalign aligners are very comfortable because they are custom-made from smooth, thin plastic. The aligners are also removable, allowing you to easily remove them as needed to eat, brush, and floss. 

What is the Process?

 If you’re interested in Invisalign treatment or finding out more, don’t hesitate to contact us today. 

Consultation with Our Certified Invisalign Providers

The first step towards a straighter smile with Invisalign is a consultation with our team. During this visit, Dr. Tomlinson or Dr. Farnsworth will examine your teeth and jawbone to determine whether you’re a suitable candidate for Invisalign treatment. We’ll check for any underlying dental conditions, such as gum disease or cavities, and advise you accordingly. We’ll also discuss your appearance goals and expectations and answer any questions you may have about the treatment.

Custom-Made Invisalign Aligners

The next step is to create a custom-made set of aligners. We will use advanced 3D imaging technology to create a digital model of your teeth to produce your aligners. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign aligners are clear, smooth, and comfortable. You’ll receive a series of aligners that we specifically tailor to your teeth, and you’ll need to wear each set for approximately two weeks to achieve the desired results.

Wearing the Invisalign Aligners

After receiving your aligners, it’s time to wear them! Wear them for at least 22 hours daily, removing them only when eating or brushing your teeth to ensure optimal results. Be sure to clean them regularly and store them in their protective case when unused. Following our dentist’s instructions and attending scheduled check-up appointments is essential to ensure the treatment progresses well.

Progress Check-Ups

Dental appointments are essential during Invisalign treatment as they help monitor progress and ensure the treatment works correctly. Our dentists will check your progress during these appointments and provide you with the next set of aligners. We’ll also discuss any unusual or discomforting issues and strategize how to address them.

Final Treatment and Retention Phase

Once you’ve completed the entire course of Invisalign treatment, it’s time to congratulate yourself! You’ve accomplished a remarkable straightening without having overly noticeable equipment on your teeth. At this point, our dentists will evaluate the results and may recommend a retainer. This is to hold your teeth in their new correct position and prevent them from returning to their old position. Our dentist will also advise you on the appropriate retainer to prevent any relapse of alignment issues.
