How Does Invisalign Work?
Once you decide that Invisalign is the right choice for you, we’ll begin by capturing detailed digital impressions of your mouth to send off to the Invisalign laboratory to craft your aligners. Each set of trays will gently and strategically work to shift your teeth into their ideal alignment while closing gaps and addressing bite problems. In order to achieve optimal results and stay on track with the treatment timeline that we outline for you during your consultation, it’s important to wear your trays for at least 22 hours each day, only taking them out when you eat or clean your teeth. Every six to eight weeks, you’ll visit our office for a quick checkup and so we can provide you with the next set of aligners in your treatment.
Indications Invisalign Can Help You
Many patients are surprised to learn that Invisalign in Aspen Hill is a versatile orthodontic treatment that can address several different issues that range from mild to moderate in severity. Below, we’ve listed a few indications that Invisalign could be the right choice for you.
Crowded Teeth
Using clear aligners, Invisalign will gradually shift crowded teeth to lay flush with each other, eliminating any hard-to-reach crevices that can collect plaque and tartar, leading to the development of cavities and gum disease.
Gapped Teeth
While some patients may embrace the gaps between their teeth, others may find a sense of relief and confidence by closing them using Invisalign aligners. This is also a great way to improve your oral health by making it easier to brush and floss.
Bite Misalignment
Whether you suffer from overbite, underbite, or crossbite, Invisalign trays can target these issues and provide you with an even and harmonious bite. This helps reduce your risk of developing problems such as TMJ dysfunction and teeth grinding.
The Benefits of Invisalign
Invisalign has several unique benefits to offer patients, making them one of the most popular orthodontic treatments among teens and adults. Some of these advantages include:
- Removable convenience so you can continue eating all of the same foods you enjoy.
- Easier oral hygiene maintenance helps you avoid developing issues throughout your treatment.
- Faster average treatment time than traditional braces.
- Discreet, clear appearance helps you avoid unwanted attention.
