What is Invisalign®?
- Invisalign® is the invisible way to straighten your teeth without
braces.
- Invisalign® uses a series of clear removable aligners (pictured
to the left) to straighten your teeth without metal wires or
brackets.
- Invisalign® has been proven effective in clinical research
and in orthdontic practices nationwide. In fact, over 70% of
all U.S. orthodontists are certified to treat patients with Invisalign®.
How
Does Invisalign® Work?
- You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them
only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
- As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your
teeth will move - little by little, week by week - until they
have straightened to the final position your orthodontist or
dentist has prescribed.
- You'll visit your orthodontist or dentist about once every
6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.
- Total treatment time averages 9-15 months and the average number
of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but both
will vary from case to case.
