The Invisalign process: What to expect

Our dental office provides personalized care to ensure you have the ultimate orthodontic experience. With years of providing Invisalign treatment, we ensure each patient enjoys a customized approach to their unique needs. From the consultation until your aligners come off, you’ll feel confident and comfortable in your treatment. 

Ready to straighten your smile with Invisalign aligners? Here’s what you can expect. 

1. Initial consultation: Your treatment begins with a consultation with Dr. Brown. The doctor will discuss your smile concerns, goals, and treatment process. The dentist also uses digital X-rays, scans, and photos of your mouth to determine your eligibility for Invisalign. Typically, Invisalign is suitable for correcting mild to complex orthodontic issues, including gapped, crowded, and misaligned teeth. 
2. Digital impressions: If you are eligible for Invisalign, the dentist captures 3D scans of your teeth with a small, wand-like intraoral scanner. There’s no room for manual impressions, which are messy and uncomfortable. After your scans, the doctor uses advanced technology to map your treatment plan, predicting when and how your teeth will move at every treatment stage. 
3. Starting treatment: Once we devise your customized plan, we’ll send it to our Invisalign lab to fabricate your aligners to the exact specifications of your teeth. When you receive your aligners, wear them 20-22 hours daily, removing them when you want to eat, drink, brush, and floss your teeth. You’ll progress through treatment by graduating from one set to the next every two weeks. You’ll notice steady progress toward the perfect smile with each set of aligners. During treatment, we’ll schedule check-in appointments to monitor your treatment progress. Unlike metal braces, Invisalign check-ups are few, ensuring you enjoy your straight smile with fewer interruptions. 
4. The big reveal: Although every patient’s journey is unique, many people complete their Invisalign treatment within 6-18 months. The exact duration depends on factors like the complexity of your case, how consistently you wear your aligners, and your specific treatment goals. Once your aligners come off, your teeth will be beautifully aligned, enhancing the appearance of your smile and the overall function of your bite.
5. Retainer use: After you finish treatment, we’ll give you four sets of personalized retainers to maintain your beautifully straightened smile. Retainers help lock in your results to prevent an orthodontic relapse, and are recommended for nighttime use indefinitely. 

Invisalign is the most advanced clear aligner brand, transforming over 18 million smiles globally. Invisalign isn’t just popular—it’s powered by decades of research, data, and cutting-edge technology. The system’s adaptive design and digital precision make even complex tooth movements possible.
