Proven effective in as little as six months, Invisalign is changing the game when it comes to achieving a confident and beautiful smile.
Say goodbye to metal brackets and wires and hello to a modern, comfortable way to get the smile you’ve always wanted in Toronto, ON. Call today to schedule your consultation, or keep reading to learn more about the benefits of Invisalign.
What Is Invisalign®?
Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that uses a series of custom-made clear aligners to gradually shift your teeth into their desired position. These aligners are made from a smooth and virtually invisible plastic material, making them much more discreet than metal braces.
Not only are they nearly invisible, but Invisalign aligners are also completely removable. This means you can easily take them out to eat, brush, and floss without any restrictions or difficulties. Plus, there are no dietary restrictions like with traditional braces – you can continue to enjoy all of your favorite foods while undergoing treatment.
Why Choose Invisalign®?
Aside from the obvious aesthetic benefits of choosing Invisalign over traditional braces, there are many other advantages to this treatment option. Here are just a few:
- Comfort: Invisalign aligners are custom-made to fit your teeth and mouth, providing a comfortable and snug fit. Unlike metal braces, there are no wires or brackets that can irritate your gums or cheeks.
- Convenience: As mentioned before, Invisalign aligners are removable, allowing you to easily maintain good oral hygiene during treatment. This also means fewer visits to the orthodontist for adjustments—typically only every six to eight weeks.
- Predictability: With Invisalign’s advanced technology, you can see a virtual representation of the expected results before even starting treatment. This allows for more accurate planning and makes it easier to track progress throughout the process.
- Faster treatment time: On average, Invisalign treatment takes only 12-18 months, compared to the usual two to three years with traditional braces. This means you can achieve your desired results in a shorter amount of time.
- Maintenance: Maintaining good oral hygiene during Invisalign treatment is also easier compared to traditional braces. With no wires or brackets, you can easily remove the aligners to brush and floss as usual, allowing for a cleaner and healthier mouth.
The Invisalign® Process
So, do you like the sound of Invisalign so far? Great! Let’s dive into the steps involved in the Invisalign process.
Step 1: Consultation – The first step in getting started with Invisalign is to schedule a consultation at our office. During this visit, we will evaluate your dental health and determine if you are a suitable candidate for Invisalign treatment. We may also take x-rays, photos, and impressions of your teeth to create a customized treatment plan.
Step 2: Treatment Plan – Using the information gathered during your consultation, we will create a digital simulation of how your teeth will move throughout the course of the treatment. This allows you to see what your end result will look like before even starting the process.
Step 3: Receiving Your Aligners – Once your treatment plan is finalized, we will send this information to Invisalign. This is where your aligners will be created using state-of-the-art technology to ensure the most precise and comfortable fit.
Step 4: Wearing Your Aligners – You will wear your aligners for 20-22 hours a day, removing them only to eat, brush, and floss. Every two weeks, you will switch to a new set of aligners as your teeth gradually shift into their desired position.
Step 5: Progress Checkups – Every six to eight weeks, you will visit our office for a progress checkup. We will monitor the movement of your teeth and make any necessary adjustments to ensure that your treatment is on track.
Step 6: Completion of Treatment – After wearing your aligners for an average of 12-18 months (varies for each patient), your treatment will be complete and you will have achieved the beautiful, straight smile you’ve always wanted.
Step 7: Retention Phase – To maintain the results of your Invisalign treatment, it is important to wear retainers as our team has directed. This may include wearing a retainer every night or just a few nights a week. This phase is crucial in preventing your teeth from shifting back to their original position.
Am I A Candidate?
At this point, you might be wondering if you are a candidate for Invisalign. The good news is that most adults and teenagers with mild to moderate orthodontic issues can benefit from this treatment. However, our team will conduct a thorough examination to determine if Invisalign is the right option for you.
