What Is Invisalign?

Invisalign is an exciting alternative to traditional metal braces that uses a fundamentally different method to straighten the teeth. Instead of brackets and wires, Invisalign relies on a series of clear, removable plastic trays - called aligners - that fit directly onto the teeth. These aligners are almost impossible to see when worn, and they're easy to take out in order to brush, floss, eat, and drink. This means Invisalign comes with a number of advantages over traditional braces, including:

  • Virtually invisible when worn
  • No dietary restrictions
  • Oral hygiene is easy
  • Smooth aligners for improved comfort

The Invisalign Treatment Process

Invisalign is one of the most convenient treatment options on the market, and thanks to advances in Invisalign technology, we can use it to treat most patients in our Litchfield Park and Verrado orthodontic offices. Every patient is different, and the specifics of your treatment will depend on your unique situation, but the treatment process for most patients goes something like this:

  • First, we'll bring you into our Litchfield Park or Verrado orthodontic office for a consultation.
  • During the consultation, Dr. Olson will perform a thorough examination of your mouth and take diagnostic records like x-rays. Based on these materials, Dr. Olson will form a comprehensive diagnosis.
  • Dr. Olson will then create a comprehensive, detailed treatment plan, breaking that plan into 2-week intervals. We'll then have your own set of Invisalign aligners custom-manufactured based on this plan - as few as 12 or as many as 48.
  • You'll wear each set of aligners 20-22 hours per day for about 1 week. At the end of each 1-week interval, you'll switch to the next pair in the sequence.
  • We'll bring you back into our office for a checkup about once every 6-12 weeks.
  • Once you finish your with your final pair of aligners, your new smile is yours to keep!
