Teeth Straightening with Invisalign
Your smile. Is it perfect? Is it time for a smile makeover?A perfectly straight smile projects beauty and confidence. And it’s easier to obtain than you may think.
Braces have historically been the solution of choice for an imperfect smile. However, they are unsightly, inconvenient, and can cause health issues for your teeth & gums. And dealing with them for months or years has become simply unacceptable.
Introducing clear braces from Invisalign, a name synonymous with healthy, beautiful smiles. Invisalign is a series of clear, removable teeth aligners used as an alternative to traditional metal dental braces. Since they’re practically invisible, you can go about your normal daily routine with almost no one even knowing you’re correcting your smile. And the ability to remove your aligners at anytime is an advantage other treatments can’t offer.
Teeth straightening via Invisalign typically takes just under one year to complete. Of course, your total treatment time depends on your particular situation, the more diligent you are in wearing your aligners, the better. Take them out to eat, drink, and brush your teeth. But the more you wear your aligners, the better. You’re on your way to the smile you’ve always dreamed of!
Smiles by Design is a Invisalign Premier Provider.Treatment Process
Your treatment plan begins with a consultation with an experienced Invisalign provider. During that consultation, you and your doctor will discuss the options to treat your particular issue. Once your doctor confirms that your issue can be corrected with the Invisalign system, he or she will write a detailed treatment plan that determines how each of your aligners will change throughout your program. When you begin treatment, you’ll wear each set of aligners in approximately two-week increments. The aligners gently move your teeth into position, and at the end of each two-week period, you “graduate” to the next set of custom aligners.
As you progress through the series of aligners, your teeth will begin moving, little by little. And you don’t have to wait until you complete treatment to see your smile change—you may start seeing positive changes early in the process. You will have occasional checkups with your doctor—often as little as once every six weeks—in order to gauge your progress. And at the end of your treatment, you’ll be showing off a smile you never knew you’d have before you had Invisalign.
