Invisalign is a series of clear, removable aligners that straighten your teeth without metal or wires. They are made with 3D computer imaging technology and have been proven to be highly effective at straightening teeth and correcting bite issues.
The number one benefit of Invisalign is comfort. The treatment involves the use of clear plastic aligner trays that are customized to fit your teeth. The plastic trays are smooth, making Invisalign comfortable for most patients. Because the aligners are clear, they are nearly invisible. Many people won’t even be able to tell that you’re wearing them.
The Invisalign system works by shifting your teeth into the desired position. To do this, your dentist will map out a custom treatment plan for you. They’ll use images of your teeth and mouth to create a digital representation of your smile. Then, they’ll determine the number of aligners you’ll need and how long your treatment will be.
On average, people wear their aligners for about 22 hours per day. Typically, the aligners are worn for two weeks before switching to a new set. Over time, your teeth will shift. Each aligner is a little different, so they’ll move your teeth gradually.
Invisalign treatment time can vary from person to person, with the average treatment taking about 12 months for adults. The length of treatment will also depend on how severe the misalignment is and the patient’s dedication to wearing the aligners each day.
