Invisalign Clear Aligner Therapy is the Clear Alternative to Braces. With Invisalign the same dental problems as traditional metal braces can be addressed: Overcrowding, large gaps between teeth, crooked teeth, crossbite, overbite, and underbite. Although a major benefit to invisalign versus traditional braces is that Invisalign® trays are almost invisible to the naked eye, and can be removed as needed, making care easier and treatment much more comfortable.
How Does Invisalign Clear Aligner Therapy work?
1. Initial Consultation: Dr. Alonso will meet with you to discuss your treatment concerns. Then, she will analyze your teeth and bite to see if you are a candidate for invisalign.
2. Digital Impressions: We will take a digital scan of your teeth using Itero 3-D scanner.
3. Treatment planning: Dr. Alonso will create a custom treatment plan together with Invisalign that will move teeth to the proper position.
4. Aligner Fabrication: Based on the treatment plan created a series of trays will be created just for you. Typically trays are recommended to be changed every one to two weeks.
5. Regular Check-ups: Our office will schedule for periodic appointments to monitor progress and make sure your treatment is going to plan. At times, adjustments to plan could be needed.
6. Treatment Completion: Once the teeth have moved to the desired position.
7. Retention Phase: Retainers are worn after active treatment is completed. Typically, retainers are worn at night. They are very important to long term success of treatment.
