WHAT TO EXPECT WITH INVISALIGN

You can expect a comfortable appliance that will fit with your active lifestyle! Invisalign has developed its technology in recent years to encompass a wider range of cases. Nowadays, cases that would have been considered too difficult and unfit for Invisalign can be handled quite readily! There are some treatment adjuncts to Invisalign that may be used in your case. We call these the 6 A's of Invisalign

1) Aligners - These are your "trays" that are custom made to your teeth. They must be worn 22 hours/day for optimal results.
2) Attachments - These are small tooth colored shapes that are bonded to your teeth. They help the aligners "grab" and position your teeth. They are removed when treatment is done.
3) Auxiliaries - Sometimes, patients are asked to wear auxiliaries such as elastics to help move their teeth.
4) Adjustment - For some patients, it may be necessary to adjust in-between the teeth by polishing with very fine sandpaper
5) Additional Aligners - After your first full set of aligners, it may be necessary to order additional aligners. These are called refinement aligners.
6) Afterwards - After Invisalign treatment, you will be given retainers that must be worn as prescribed for as long as you want your teeth straight.
