It all starts with the Invisalign procedure which is quite simple.

If the patient can maintain their treatment correctly, typically, your alignment will be completed up to 50% faster than with traditional smile correction methods. 

Invisalign Process

The Invisalign process is one that depends on a three-step process from initial assessment to final alignment. The treatment is designed to produce straight teeth and a better overall dental future. Here are the three steps to the Invisalign treatment. 

Step 1

One of the specialists at Maple Dental Health will take a series of X-rays of your mouth and teeth to help craft your personalised treatment plan with Invisalign. By utilising the Invisalign program, your dentist will then be able to showcase what your teeth look like now and will be able to show you how your teeth and smile will change throughout the process. Once the x-rays are taken, we will then start work on step two.

Step 2

Step two is one of the most critical in the Invisalign process and is where the infamous aligner trays are created and moulded. Aligners are custom designed for your mouth and are made from smooth plastic to ensure your mouth is not irritated or bothered during the treatment. These aligners are not permanent but instead, are designed to be replaced every two weeks for the length of the treatment. 

Step 3

The final and most straightforward part of the Invisalign process is wearing your aligner trays. As noted earlier, Invisalign trays are designed to be smooth and comfortable plastic aligners that are to be worn for two-week portions before being switched out. This means that during a 50-week treatment for a typical patient, they will be switching their trays 25 times during the process. Although this might seem excessive, the process is designed to fix crooked and misaligned teeth over the entire time of the treatment and thus requires slight changes to the aligners throughout. 

As well, as a patient, it should be noted that you are expected to wear your aligner trays always, except during meal times and brushing your teeth. This means for the average patient; the trays need to be in place for up to 22 hours per day and should not be played with or taken out excessively. Failure to wear the trays for the required amount of time can result in delays to your results, and a longer treatment plan.Naturally, as the process is a functional and continually changing, you may get faster or slower results than your initial estimate, but do not fret this is normal. Teeth alignment is a process, and the Invisalign process can deliver your perfect smile in the long run. 

Is Invisalign Right for You?

When you are looking at Invisalign treatment, you need to consider a few things.

First, Invisalign is only designed to fix specific alignment issues. It is incredibly useful in treating gaped or crowded teeth, over and under bits and crossbites. However, if you are dealing with other problems, other traditional methods might be a better fit for your dental care. 

Secondly, Invisalign is not a cheap option, and the price of the technology is often an obstacle for those with limited or no dental coverage. 

Third, Invisalign is an effective treatment for those who are committed, but for the best results, patients need to have their aligner in 22 hours per day. For some patients, this is not possible, but the success of the treatment will naturally depend on your ability to keep to a strict treatment plan. 

Finally, Invisalign was designed to help teenagers and adults treat dental issues without the need for bulky traditional braces, but it is not for everyone. If you are considering Invisalign, it is best to consult with a dentist and complete an assessment to see if Invisalign is the best way forward for your oral health. 

After Invisalign

Once the Invisalign process is completed there is still some work to do. To maintain your smile and perfect teeth you will need to work hard to continue to practice proper oral care, which could also mean that your dentist might supply you with a retainer to wear at night. This kind of treatment is not out of the question and will ensure that the results of your Invisalign treatment are permanent. As well, you should expect to continue to have regular dental check-ups throughout your time with Invisalign and after your treatment. This will ensure there are no issues with cavities or other concerns that may come up. Finally, for those who are considering wisdom teeth removal, it does not matter if you complete the removals before or after your Invisalign treatment.
