What to Expect From an Invisalign Treatment
For a number of years, conventional metal braces were the only solution to realign teeth. However, today, Invisalign is becoming an increasingly popular and effective alternative. These transparent trays are put on the teeth to straighten them, serving the same purpose as metal braces, but without the pain and inconvenience.
Here’s what you can expect from an Invisalign treatment:
Step 1: Initial Consultation
Your Invisalign treatment will begin with a consultation with your orthodontist. During this appointment, they will:
- Check your teeth in detail
- Determine if Invisalign is the right option for you
- Answer any queries or concerns you have about the treatment
- Discuss costs
During this appointment, make sure you are open and transparent with your dentist. By voicing any questions you have, you can be sure you’ll make the safest and most informed choice for your dental health.
Step 2: Taking Records
During this step, your dentist will take teeth impressions, do x-rays, and take any tooth photographs needed to start formulating your records. These teeth impressions will then be used to create digital teeth for treatment. This will help ascertain how the teeth position will eventually be moving.
Step 3: Your First Aligners
Once your impressions have been finalized, custom aligners for your teeth will be made. The number of aligners you will require depends on the complexity of your treatment plan.
Step 4: Follow Up Visits
Typically, your orthodontist will check your progress every 6-8 weeks. Depending on the movement of your teeth during this period, you’ll be given a new set of aligners in accordance with your treatment plan.
