Invisalign is a comprehensive alternative to standard metal braces. Invisalign uses a series of clear, BPA-free plastic aligner trays to align and comfortably straighten your teeth.
Invisalign is an effective treatment for many people, from their teenage years through adulthood. During an initial consultation, Dr. Batorfalvy conducts a comprehensive pre-examination to determine whether Invisalign is the right fit for you.
How does Invisalign work?
Invisalign aligners are custom-made to fit the structure of your teeth and mouth. Dr. Batorfalvy uses the most advanced techniques to create an impression of your mouth. Once complete, she designs a treatment plan that uses a series of aligners that incrementally shift your teeth into the desired position, leading to a straight and beautiful smile.
You will commonly use a new set of aligners every couple of weeks over the course of your treatment. Each new set of aligning trays gradually shifts your teeth, bringing you closer to the smile you’ve always wanted.
Your Invisalign aligners are designed to fit snugly over your teeth and are virtually invisible. The aligners are removable, but to achieve the best results, you should wear them for 20-22 hours a day.
What benefits does Invisalign provide?
Invisalign offers a number of benefits, especially when compared to traditional braces. Invisalign aligners are:
- Nearly invisible: Most people can’t even tell that you’re wearing them.
- Comfortable: Made from smooth, BPA-free plastic, they don’t irritate your gums or cheeks the way traditional braces can.
- Removable: You can take them out to eat, floss, and brush, meaning you won’t need to be bothered by any dietary restrictions.
- Easy to maintain: Since they’re removable, you can simply brush and rinse them with lukewarm water to keep them clean.
How long will an Invisalign treatment take?
The length of your Invisalign treatment depends on the severity of your case. Dr. Batorfalvy will work with you to help identify the best option and decide how long your Invisalign treatment should last to achieve an optimal outcome. On average, adults can expect a 12-month treatment period.
