What Is Invisalign?
Invisalign aligners consist of thin, lightweight plastic. They fit over either your upper or lower arch, and patients often wear a set on each row of teeth.
When you purchase Invisalign in Sunbury, you will receive custom-made aligners that fit comfortably over your teeth. They do not feel bulky and won’t interfere with your everyday speech. You will likely forget they are in your mouth most of the time.
You will need to wear these plastic pieces every day and night. However, you can take them out to brush and floss your teeth and eat meals. Patients can also take them out for special occasions.
How Does Invisalign Work?
With Invisalign in Sunbury, you receive multiple sets of aligners to wear over a specified period. The patient will wear each individual set for two weeks before moving onto the next one.
These plastic pieces will apply pressure to your teeth and gradually shift them into the desired position.
The Invisalign Process
Our dental experts utilise Clincheck® Software to plan your orthodontic treatment. This software predicts your teeth’s movement and ensures that you get the desired outcome.
After an initial consultation, we will tell you how many aligners you’ll need. We will discuss how long your treatment plan will be and the costs involved.
Using the images obtained from the Clincheck® Software, we will create your custom-made aligners.
We will get these clearly-labelled sets to you efficiently. You’ll know what sets to wear in what order.
While Invisalign is an advanced technology, your dentist may need to make some adjustments. We will have you come into the office every four to six weeks to ensure your treatment plan is going according to plan. A dentist will record your progress and make any changes to help move your treatment plan along.
Invisalign from a dental provider is safer than consumer mail-order straightening kits. These kits can lead to worsened alignment, gum recession, and loosened teeth.
Who Is a Candidate for Invisalign?
Invisalign aligners are comfortable, durable, and practically invisible. They are well-suited for teenagers and adults alike. The teen-version of these aligners come with indicators that let parents ensure their children are wearing their aligners for the correct length of time.
These plastic pieces are particularly beneficial to those who:
- Play sports and need to wear a mouthguard
- Play wind instruments
- Do not want the appearance of traditional braces
