Invisalign Treatment FAQS:
Invisalign is an innovative orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners to straighten teeth gradually. These invisible aligners are replaced every few weeks to move your teeth into the desired position. It's a discreet and comfortable alternative to traditional braces.
The duration of Invisalign treatment varies from person to person, depending on the complexity of your case. On average, treatment can take about 12 to 18 months. We'll provide a personalized estimate based on your specific needs during your consultation.
Invisalign is generally well-tolerated, and patients often experience less discomfort than traditional braces. You may feel some pressure or mild discomfort when you switch to a new set of aligners, but it's usually temporary and a sign that the treatment is progressing as planned.
The cost of Invisalign varies based on factors like the complexity of your case and treatment duration. During your consultation, we'll provide a detailed cost breakdown. Many dental insurance plans cover Invisalign to some extent, and we offer financing options to make treatment affordable.
Yes, one of the advantages of Invisalign is that the aligners are removable. You can take them out for eating, drinking, brushing, and special occasions. However, wearing them for at least 20-22 hours a day is essential for optimal results.
