FAQs:
What is Invisalign®?
Invisalign® is the process of wearing a series of clear, removable aligners that gradually straighten your teeth. No brackets or wires, and none of the restrictions that come with metal braces.
How will Invisalign® treatment straighten my teeth?
Your Invisalign® Dentist will create a unique, digital treatment plan that maps out the exact movements of your teeth. Your Invisalign® clear aligners are then designed to apply the right amount of force to the right place at the right time based on your plan. Your Invisalign® Dentist will be with you every step of the way to monitor your progress and ensure your aligners fit correctly.
What are the benefits of Invisalign®?
Invisalign® clear aligners are virtually invisible — people may not even notice you’re wearing them. You can remove them to eat and drink or to brush and floss. There are no metal brackets or wires that could irritate your mouth or break.
Unlike other brands, Invisalign® clear aligners are made from patented SmartTrack material, which is more comfortable and provides a better fit. Invisalign® aligners are also trimmed based on your gum line for comfort and appearance. As the most advanced clear aligner system in the world, it has successfully improved over 10 million smiles.
Since having my braces removed, my teeth have shifted. Can Invisalign® fix this?
Yes, Invisalign® clear aligners can treat nearly all common teeth-straightening issues, from simple to complex. Many people who formerly had braces choose Invisalign® treatment as the discreet solution to improve their smile when they find that their teeth have shifted back.
I have veneers or crowns. Will Invisalign® clear aligners work with them?
It depends. Talk with your Invisalign® Dentist about the dental work you’ve had done, including veneers and crowns, and he or she will evaluate your individual needs.
Can anyone tell that I’m wearing the aligners?
Invisalign® aligners are virtually invisible. Others may not even notice you’re wearing them, making Invisalign® a seamless fit with your lifestyle.
Can I take my aligners off whenever I need to?
Yes, you can remove your Invisalign® aligners for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. You can take them off for special occasions, like a wedding, job interview, or for playing your favourite sport or instrument. Just remember to wear them 20 to 22 hours a day to get the best results.
Are there any restrictions on what I can eat while in treatment?
None! Invisalign® clear aligners are removable, so there are no food restrictions at all (hello popcorn!). With traditional wires and brackets, there’s a long list of foods you unfortunately can’t enjoy, as they can damage or get stuck in your braces.
Is Invisalign® treatment painful?
Invisalign® clear aligners move your teeth by applying gentle, constant force, but some people do feel temporary discomfort for the first few days of wearing a new set of aligners. Typically, people describe it as feeling “pressure” and it’s normal — it’s a sign your Invisalign® clear aligners are working and transforming your smile.
Please see your Invisalign® Dentist if you have any concerns or experience continued discomfort.
Sometimes when I remove my aligners, my teeth feel loose. Is that common?
Yes. As your Invisalign® aligners gradually shift your teeth into their proper position, your gums are re-forming around each tooth as it moves. Be sure to talk to your Invisalign® Dentist about any concerns.
Will Invisalign® treatment still work if I only wear my aligners while I sleep?
You need to wear your Invisalign® aligners 20 to 22 hours a day to get the results you want.
Will wearing Invisalign® clear aligners affect my speech?
It may take a couple of days for your tongue to get used to having your Invisalign® aligners in your mouth, and you may have a slight lisp. But this should disappear quickly.
Will I need to wear a retainer after treatment to prevent my teeth from moving again?
Most Invisalign® Dentists recommend that anyone who has completed orthodontic treatment, whether with braces or Invisalign® treatment, use a retainer to prevent teeth from gradually shifting back toward their initial position.
