What is Invisalign?
Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, clear aligners to gradually straighten teeth, often requiring fewer office visits than traditional braces. Invisalign aligners are:
Transparent – Invisalign aligners are made from clear, smooth plastic, making them far less noticeable than traditional braces. Most people won’t even realize you’re wearing them unless you point it out.
Comfortable to wear – The aligners are made from a special plastic that has smooth, rounded edges, so they typically won’t irritate your mouth and tissues like traditional braces often can.
Customized for your smile – Each Invisalign aligner is uniquely crafted to fit your mouth. Using advanced 3D imaging technology, Dr. Osterman creates a precise digital model of your teeth to design a series of aligners that gradually guide them into proper alignment.
- Removable –Unlike traditional metal braces, you can remove your aligners to eat, drink, brush your teeth, floss, and for special occasions. There’s no need to change your lifestyle with Invisalign!
Why Consider Invisalign
Here’s what makes Invisalign a great choice for achieving a confident, healthy smile:
- With Invisalign, you can have a straighter, healthier smile without all the noticeable wires and brackets of traditional braces.
- Invisalign aligners are removable, making it easy for you to enjoy the foods you love without worrying about breaking or bending your brackets and wires. You can also remove your Invisalign aligners to brush and floss regularly.
- You don’t need to change anything about your current lifestyle! With Invisalign, you can continue participating in day-to-day activities without changing a thing. Invisalign is great for professionals, athletes, brides, and parents.
- Office visits and checkups are easy, quick, and painless. Fewer appointments are required throughout your entire treatment.
How Does Invisalign Work?
When you begin your Invisalign treatment, you will receive several sets of custom-fit aligners. As teeth require constant force to move, Invisalign works best when worn for 22 hours a day. Each set of aligners is worn for only two weeks. After two weeks, you can switch your aligners to the next set and continue straightening your teeth.
