ORTHODONTICS

Invisalign

Invisalign is the newest innovation in orthodontics to help patients correct their crooked and misaligned teeth. It brings the same functions as the traditional braces, however, its looks bring more benefit. Patients used to be anxious about metal braces since it can be very striking. Now, with clear plastic aligners, there’s no need to be conscious about metal and wires on your teeth.

Step by step process in having Invisalign

Consultation

Before deciding which treatment you want for your teeth, ask your Oshawa dentist for a consultation first. You should always consider professional advice to ensure that the procedure really suits your dental needs. In our clinic, the dentist will carefully assess your dental issues using the latest technological system and present the most suitable treatment.

Always remember that not all dentists are Invisalign experts. Choose a specialist who has gone through special training and wide experience with the field, just like our orthodontists. During your initial dental visit, our Oshawa dentist will perform dental exams and may take your dental X-ray. This will help him determine what other underlying issues are connected with the irregularities of your teeth.

Treatment plan

After the first assessment, your dentist might recommend for Invisalign treatment plan. Each patient has unique treatment plans depending on your needs. Some may need a total duration of 12 to 18 months to correct their teeth while others may see results in lesser time.

Fabrication

This time, your dentist will take your teeth impression to create a model of your teeth. Your teeth model will be used to fabricate your customized clear aligners. Commonly, patients will wear around 20-30 aligners throughout their treatment period.
