FAQ

Invisalign treatment is suitable for many people who have mild to moderate orthodontic issues such as crowded teeth, spacing issues, overbite, underbite, or crossbite. However, it's essential to consult with an orthodontist or dentist trained in Invisalign to determine if it's the right treatment option for your specific dental needs.

The procedure for getting Invisalign treatment typically involves the following steps:

  • Initial consultation: During this visit, your orthodontist will examine your teeth, discuss your treatment goals, and determine if Invisalign is suitable for you.
  • Treatment planning: If you decide to proceed with Invisalign, your orthodontist will take digital impressions, photos, and x-rays of your teeth to create a customized treatment plan.
  • Custom aligners: Based on the treatment plan, a series of custom-made aligners will be fabricated specifically for your teeth using advanced 3D computer imaging technology.
  • Wearing the aligners: You’ll wear each set of aligners for about 1-2 weeks, gradually shifting your teeth into the desired position.
  • Monitoring progress: Throughout your treatment, you’ll have periodic check-ups with your orthodontist to monitor progress and receive new sets of aligners.
The results of Invisalign treatment can be long-lasting, but it's essential to follow your orthodontist's instructions for wearing retainers after treatment to maintain the alignment of your teeth. Without proper retention, there is a risk of teeth shifting back to their original positions over time.

Maintaining Invisalign treatment involves wearing the aligners as instructed by your orthodontist, typically for 20-22 hours per day. You’ll need to remove the aligners for eating, drinking (except water), brushing, and flossing. It’s essential to clean the aligners regularly with a soft toothbrush and lukewarm water to prevent plaque buildup and odors.
