What is the Invisalign treatment process?

Invisalign provides an alternative to braces for straightening teeth. It is a preferred method because of the appearance, comfort, and ease of care.

Patients often want to straighten their teeth without a visible “train-track” appearance of braces. Invisalign aligners are clear and fitted to your teeth to avoid any appearance alteration.

They also offer the comfort of not snagging on lips and gums like braces can. The aligners sit flush against the teeth with a smooth surface.

Best of all, they are easy to care for! They can be taken out and rinsed off when needed, and they can even be removed for events when you might not want anything inhibiting your smile.

So what if Invisalign is the right choice for you? Knowing what to expect from the treatment is a helpful way to start.

Treatment Process

  1. The Invisalign treatment process starts with a dental consultation. Depending on your situation, Invisalign may or may not be an option for you. If Invisalign is an option, the dentist will then take X-rays, scans, or other documentation of your teeth.

  2. Once your dentist takes scans of your teeth, they will show you the treatment process with visuals and make a plan.

  3. Next, Invisalign aligners are created for your unique needs to be picked up when available.

  4. Once you have your aligners, the more you wear them, the better the treatment process will work.

  5. You will meet only occasionally to determine if the treatment is working as it should. Should new aligners be needed for progress, they are created at one of these checkups.

Overall, the process tends to be more comfortable than that of braces. Visit Cascade Dental Care to learn more about if Invisalign is a good option for you.
