We will create a unique, digital Invisalign treatment plan that maps out the exact movements of your teeth. Your personal Invisalign clear aligners are then designed to apply the right amount of force to the right place at the right time based on your plan. We will be with you every step of the way to monitor your progress and ensure your aligners fit correctly.
While each person’s case will be different, the Invisalign orthodontist usually begins with designing a treatment plan and ordering a set of unique aligners. These aligners will be worn throughout the process to adjust the patient’s teeth. The aligners are made from BPA-free, medical plastic which is comfortable to wear and doesn’t irritate the gums and cheeks. Patients will wear the aligners daily and remove them to eat or brush and floss their teeth. As the process continues, the patient’s teeth will gradually begin to move into the right place.
For most people, the aligners will be switched out every two weeks and should be worn for at least 20 to 22 hours each day. The length of the entire process will be approximately one year in adults but may change depending on the severity of the alignment issues being treated.
