FAQ's
Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that utilizes a series of clear, removable aligners to straighten your teeth. These aligners are highly custom-made to perfectly fit your teeth and gradually move them into the desired position, hence offering a discreet and comfortable alternative to traditional braces.
Invisalign functions by using a series of clear aligners that are changed approximately every 1-2 weeks. Each set of aligners is designed to move your teeth slightly, with the goal of gradually shifting them into the correct position. Your dentist will design and prepare a personalized treatment plan to ensure the best results.
The length of Invisalign treatment varies depending on your specific case, but most patients complete treatment in 12 to 18 months. The duration depends on the complexity of your dental requirements and how closely you follow your treatment plan.
Yes, Invisalign is truly as effective as traditional braces for most cases, including correcting mild to moderate alignment issues, overbites, underbites, and gaps between teeth. In some complex cases, your trusted dentist may recommend traditional braces or a combination of both.
Invisalign aligners are prepared from smooth plastic and are custom-fit to your teeth, which means they are comfortable and very less likely to cause irritation compared to traditional metal braces. Some patients may experience mild discomfort when changing to a new set of aligners, but this typically subsides quickly.
For the best outcomes, you must wear your Invisalign aligners for about 20 to 22 hours per day, only removing them for the purpose of eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. The more consistently you wear your aligners, the speedier and more effective your treatment will be.
It is recommended that you remove your aligners when eating or drinking anything except water. Eating with aligners in may cause them to become damaged or stained. After eating or drinking, be sure to brush your teeth before putting your aligners back in.
Cleaning your Invisalign aligners is really easy. Simply clean them with lukewarm water and brush them gently with a soft toothbrush. Refrain from using toothpaste, as it can scratch the aligners. You can also use the Invisalign cleaning system to keep your aligners fresh and clear.
Yes, after completing your Invisalign treatment, you will likely need to wear a retainer to help maintain the results. Retainers are essential for ensuring your teeth stay in their new positions, and your dentist will provide you with particular instructions on how often to wear them.
Invisalign is really suitable for most patients with mild to moderate alignment issues. However, your dentist at Alexander Family Dental will evaluate your specific requirements and determine whether Invisalign is the best treatment option for you. If you have complicated dental issues, traditional braces can be more effective, or a combination of treatments may be recommended.
