The 4 Things To Expect During The Invisalign Process
If you’re seeking to straighten misaligned teeth without ruining your appearance for the next two years with traditional braces, Invisalign could be the solution you’re looking for.
The aligners are not only virtually invisible for aesthetic enhancement but also removable to enable proper brushing and flossing.
Here’s what to expect during the Invisalign process:
- A consultation with a qualified orthodontist
Consultation is a vital part of the Invisalign procedure. It helps your orthodontist determine if you’re qualified for the treatment and know about your objectives and expectations.
- Making of your aligners
Invisalign aligners are custom made for your exact teeth alignment. Your orthodontist will thus have to take multiple impressions of your teeth mouth and teeth to help with the designing of your trays.
- Receiving your aligners
It can take up to two months before your orthodontist receives your aligners from the Invisalign company. You will be provided with several sets of Invisalign trays, each of which you will be required to wear at least 22 hours a day for a period of two weeks.
- Making follow up visits
Over the treatment period, you will be needed to make intermittent visits to your orthodontist for checks on progress. Some orthodontists choose to give you a few sets of trays at a time to compel their patients to go back for checkups.
A few adjustments will be made to your braces if you’re not making the right progress.
