Invisalign is the virtually invisible alternative to braces that helps you feel confident to smile while wearing them. It uses a series of custom-made, clear, removable aligners that gradually move your teeth into the desired position.
How does Invisalign work?
- During the initial consultation, your Wantirna South dentist will discuss the problem you have with your teeth. Elite Smiles will also explore the results you are hoping to achieve. If your condition makes you a good candidate for Invisalign, Elite Smiles will present you with a treatment plan.
- He will take impressions of your teeth, which are then digitised into a 3D image (ClinCheck®). By using this system he can plot your tooth movements with great accuracy and determine what needs to be done to align the teeth correctly.
- Once you have agreed to the treatment plan presented, aligners are then custom-made for you. Each aligner is different and they help move your teeth gradually into their proper position.
- Aligners have to be worn for approximately two weeks before you switch to the next aligner in the series. You only need to take them out every time you eat, drink, brush and floss.
- Your check-ups will be every 4-6 weeks to monitor your progress as well as to receive your next series of aligners.
- After you have completed your treatment, a suitable retainer is inserted to protect your beautiful smile.
The Benefits of Invisalign
- Suitable for adults, the aligner is barely noticeable (invisible) so your smile remains the same while moving your teeth into the desired position.
- The aligner is removable and doesn’t need constant adjustment or tightening like with braces.
- No pain and irritation is experienced, unlike traditional braces, making it comfortable to wear all day.
- Doesn’t interfere with your dental care routine and helps maintain your oral hygiene habits.
