Frequently Asked
Questions
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, custom-made, removable aligners to straighten teeth. It's an alternative to traditional metal braces, offering a more discreet and comfortable way to improve your smile.
How does Invisalign work?
Invisalign aligners apply gentle, controlled forces to your teeth, gradually moving them into the desired position. Each set of aligners is worn for about one to two weeks before switching to the next set in the series, progressively straightening your teeth over time.
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
The duration of Invisalign treatment varies depending on the complexity of your case. On average, treatment can take anywhere from 6 to 18 months, but you may start seeing results in a matter of weeks.
Is Invisalign painful?
Invisalign is generally not painful. Some people may experience temporary discomfort for a few days at the beginning of each new stage of treatment as the teeth start to move. This discomfort is typically described as pressure and is a normal sign that the aligners are working.
Can I eat with Invisalign aligners in?
No, you should remove your Invisalign aligners while eating or drinking anything other than water. This prevents damage to the aligners and maintains oral hygiene.
How often do I need to wear my Invisalign aligners?
For 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.
Will Invisalign affect my speech?
Some people might experience a slight lisp when they first start wearing Invisalign aligners. However, this is typically temporary and goes away once your mouth gets used to having the aligners.
How do I care for my Invisalign aligners?
Clean your Invisalign aligners daily. Rinse them under lukewarm water and brush them gently with a soft-bristled toothbrush and clear, unscented soap. Avoid using hot water, as it can warp the plastic.
How much does Invisalign cost?
The cost of Invisalign treatment is comparable to traditional braces and varies depending on the complexity of your case. Your dentist can provide a more specific cost estimate after an initial consultation.
Is Invisalign covered by dental insurance?
Many dental insurance plans cover a portion of Invisalign treatment just as they would other orthodontic treatments like braces. Check with your insurance provider for details about your coverage.
How do I get started with Invisalign?
The first step is to schedule a consultation with an Invisalign-trained dentist or orthodontist. They will assess your smile, discuss your goals, and determine if Invisalign is the right treatment for you.
