What to Expect From an Invisalign Treatment: 4 Basic Steps
Today, Invisalign is becoming an increasingly popular and effective alternative to traditional metal braces for correctly crooked or misaligned teeth. These transparent aligners are put on the teeth to straighten them without the pain and inconvenience of metal braces.
If you are considering an Invisalign treatment, here’s what you can expect from the procedure:
1. A Consultation With Your Dentist
The first step to any Invisalign treatment is a consultation with your dentist. During this appointment, your oral healthcare professional will:
- Check your teeth
- Determine if you are a candidate for this treatment
- Discuss costs
- Discuss any questions you may have about this treatment
It’s very important that you are honest with your dentist during this consultation. By voicing any concerns or questions you may have, you’ll be able to make the most informed choice about whether or not this is the right treatment for you.
2. Dental Records Will Be Taken
To start the treatment, your dentist will need to take teeth impressions, do x-rays and take any tooth photographs required to start formulating your records. These will then be used to create digital teeth for the treatment, which will then help determine how the teeth position will eventually be moving.
3. You’ll Get Your First Set of Aligners
Once your impressions have been finalized, your dentist will make custom aligners for you. The number of aligners you’ll need over the course of the treatment will depend on the complexity of your issues.
4. You’ll Need Follow Up Visits
Your dentist will likely want to check your progress every 6 weeks. Depending on how your teeth are moving, you will be given a new set of aligners in accordance with your treatment plan.
How to Get The Most Out of Your Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign is a very effective and convenient way to straighten your teeth. However, there are certain things you must do to get the most out of your treatment, including:
- You must wear your aligners for at least 22 hours every day
- Make sure to brush twice a day and floss your teeth at least once a day
- Change your aligners on time and always in the right order
- Clean your aligners with soap and water. DO NOT use toothpaste on your aligners
- Wear your retainer once your treatment is done, as instructed by your dentist
