Clear aligner treatment
Invisalign Clear Aligners
Invisalign clear aligners can be an option for selected tooth-alignment and bite concerns. A consultation helps determine whether aligners fit your goals and clinical needs.
How we approach it
Start with the diagnosis, then choose the treatment.
Invisalign uses a planned sequence of removable clear aligners to move teeth over time. Suitability, treatment length and results depend on the individual case and consistent wear.
Care may include
- Orthodontic consultation and bite assessment
- Digital records and treatment planning when appropriate
- Invisalign clear aligner treatment for suitable cases
- Monitoring of tooth movement throughout treatment
- Retention planning after active treatment
- Discussion of braces or other orthodontic options when aligners are not the best fit
What to expect
A simple, step-by-step process.
Review the plan
If Invisalign is suitable, we discuss the proposed movements, responsibilities, limitations and expected treatment sequence.
Wear, monitor and retain
Treatment requires consistent aligner wear, periodic monitoring and retainers after active movement is complete.
Questions about invisalign
Common questions.
These answers are general. Your dentist can give you advice that is specific to your situation after an assessment.
Can Invisalign treat every orthodontic problem?
No. Some tooth and bite movements are better treated with braces, other appliances or specialist orthodontic care.
Do I have to wear the aligners all day?
Successful treatment depends on consistent wear according to the instructions provided for your case. Aligners are removed for eating, drinking certain beverages and oral hygiene.
Will I need retainers afterward?
Yes. Retention is an important part of orthodontic treatment because teeth can shift after active movement is complete.
