What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a clear aligner system designed to straighten your teeth and correct your bite. Using customized, transparent, and removable trays for both the upper and lower teeth, Invisalign gradually shifts your teeth into their desired positions. Each treatment plan is tailored to meet the specific needs of the patient. Once your treatment is complete, you’ll enjoy a beautifully aligned smile and improved bite.
What can Invisalign correct?
Invisalign can address many of the same dental issues as traditional braces, such as:
- Overbite
- Underbite
- Crossbite
- Open bite
- Teeth crowding
- Gaps between teeth
During your consultation, Dr. Trogan will discuss the results you can expect from Invisalign treatment.
How does Invisalign work?
Your first appointment involves taking X-rays and impressions of your teeth, which are sent to a lab where dental professionals create your custom aligners. Once your clear aligners are ready, you'll wear them for 20-22 hours a day to achieve the best results. You can remove them to eat, drink, and brush or floss your teeth. Every two weeks, you'll swap your aligners for a new set, gradually shifting your teeth into their desired position. The aligners make small adjustments over time, moving your teeth towards the final result.
Dr. Inna Trogan customizes your treatment to meet your specific needs, ensuring you achieve the beautiful smile you desire.
What are the benefits of Invisalign?
Invisalign not only straightens your teeth but also helps prevent dental issues, such as tooth decay that can occur in hard-to-reach areas.
Other benefits include:
- Removable for convenience
- Comfortable to wear
- Easy to clean
- No food or drink restrictions
Invisalign provides effective results, correcting your orthodontic concerns while making it easier to maintain your oral hygiene.
How often do I come in for appointments when wearing Invisalign aligners?
With Invisalign, you only need to visit Dr. Trogan every six weeks for a checkup to ensure your teeth are progressing as planned. Unlike traditional braces, which require more frequent visits, Invisalign offers a more convenient treatment option. The typical Invisalign treatment lasts about a year, though the exact timeline will depend on your specific case. You’ll have a clear idea of your treatment duration before starting your aligners.
