What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is a thin transparent plastic splint made of special material that is used to correct teeth that do not stand straight.

It can be used to treat crossbites, diastemas (spaces between teeth), scissor bites, open bites, crowded bites, and rotated and misaligned teeth.

Advantages of Invisalign:

It is transparent and can be used in social contexts without noticing that there is a rail. There is nothing that rubs the cheek or lip that traditional braces can do.
It is easy to brush your teeth and keep them clean throughout the treatment period as the splint is only removed when brushing and at meals.
A treatment that can usually be predicted, i.e. that you can predict what the intended result will be before you start the treatment.
The splint given to the patient can either be worn for 1 week, 2 weeks, or 3 weeks. This is determined by the dentist in connection with the planning.
Each treatment plan is tailored to your unique needs, with both the treatment duration and number of aligners individually customized. Typically, aligners are changed every two to three weeks, and most treatments last between 6 and 18 months.

Consultation: The patient discusses their goals and expected outcomes with the dentist.
Digital Scanning: Teeth are digitally scanned to create an accurate 3D model, eliminating the need for traditional impressions.
Treatment Planning: A customized treatment plan is developed using Invisalign’s advanced software, allowing the patient to preview the anticipated results.
Aligner Production: Once approved, the clear aligners are manufactured and are typically ready for pickup within a few weeks.
Follow-Up: The patient receives their aligners and attends regular check-ups to ensure optimal progress throughout their Invisalign treatment.
Commitment and Usage: For the best results, aligners should be worn for 20-22 hours per day, and removed only during meals and while brushing.
