Invisalign
Clear Aligners for a Straighter Smile
Invisalign offers an alternative teeth straightening solution without the need of using brackets and wires. It uses a set of aligners that are created from a plastic which fits smoothly over the teeth. The aligners are made of smooth plastic and are almost transparent. They can be removed during meals and brushing time.
Each set requires at least two weeks to complete and is worn continually. The teeth are gradually pushed into place until they reach the right position. It is an approach that fits seamlessly into any routine. Compared to regular braces, these can be more comfortable.
Completing the full check-up and 3D scan beforehand is critical in evaluating if it is the proper fit and aids in developing step-by-step monitoring during regular appointments.
What to Expect with Invisalign
With Invisalign, the process is quite simple. Once the 3D aligners are created, expect to wear them for 20-22 hours everyday. The only time they will be removed is during eating, drinking (other than water), brushing, and flossing.
Ideally, every couple of weeks there is an appointment to assess the progress and meticulous questions are answered and clarifications given. Full treatment takes anywhere between 6-18 months, but results may vary.
You can still enjoy your meals and maintain oral hygiene due to the adjustable nature of the braces. The majority of people adapt to a brace and an any minimal speech change subsides within days.
A Discreet and Comfortable Solution
Many people prefer Invisalign because it blends in with daily life. There’s also no restrictions on foods, nor wires or metals being poked into your mouth. Since the aligners are contoured to the shape of each patient’s teeth, they fit perfectly and don’t draw attention.
You’ll get a clear plan with before-and-after images before anything begins. That way, you know what to expect from the start. Guidance and supervision will be provided by the team at Manly Corso Dental during each phase to ensure appropriate bite, jaw comfort, and oral hygiene. Patients definitely appreciate how easy it is to look after their teeth during treatment.
