The Invisalign system provides clear plastic BPA-free aligners to gradually shift teeth into their appropriate positions with adjustments made by changing the aligners every fortnight. The overall aim is to move the teeth to ensure they are in the same place, giving them an aesthetically pleasing appearance and smile. Patients desiring Invisalign treatment must follow the steps mentioned below to start their treatment:
Patients must visit the Invisalign dentist to discuss the treatment and get the dentist to evaluate their teeth. In addition, they can discuss their treatment goals during the meeting.
If eligible for the treatment, our Invisalign dentist in Clear Lake City, Houston TX captures images of their teeth with the help of a 3D camera intraoral camera, allowing them to view how their smile looks after completing the treatment.
The captured images are for Invisalign’s manufacturers Align Technologies, to custom-create Invisalign aligners for them and dispatch them to the Invisalign provider in Houston for the patient.
