Frequently asked questions

Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that uses clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth. These aligners are custom-made for your teeth using 3D imaging technology. They work by gradually shifting your teeth into their desired position over time. You will receive a series of aligners, each to be worn for about two weeks, that will progressively move your teeth.

The duration of Invisalign treatment varies depending on the complexity of the case. On average, it takes about 12 to 18 months to complete. However, you may start seeing noticeable results in just a few weeks. Your dentist will provide a personalized treatment plan and timeline during your consultation.

Invisalign is generally less painful than traditional braces. You may experience some discomfort or pressure when you first start wearing a new set of aligners, which is a sign that they are working to move your teeth. This discomfort usually subsides within a few days as your teeth adjust to the aligners.

You should remove your Invisalign aligners when eating or drinking anything other than water. This helps prevent staining and damage to the aligners. After eating, it's important to brush your teeth before putting the aligners back in to maintain good oral hygiene and avoid trapping food particles.

For the best results, you should wear your Invisalign aligners for 20 to 22 hours per day. They should only be removed for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. Consistent wear ensures that your treatment progresses as planned and helps you achieve your desired results in the shortest possible time.

Alternatively, they might listen to your story, guiding the conversation with clarifying questions.
