Our downtown Toronto dental office is proud to offer Invisalign as an alternative to traditional braces.

 

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is a system that allows us to straighten teeth without traditional braces and brackets. Invisalign creates a series of custom fitted removable trays called Aligners which are changed about every  week, progressively straightening, aligning and improving your smile.

The Invisalign Aligners are clear and virtually unnoticeable to those around you.

 

Although they will notice that you smile more often!

If you are looking to straighten your teeth using the latest technology, Invisalign^® is your best choice. Invisalign aligners are often called ‘invisible braces’.[/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”What is Invisalign® treatment for?” _builder_version=”4.9.6″ _module_preset=”default”]Patients who can wear the Invisalign aligners for at least 20- 22 hours a day are eligible for Invisalign®. It is also the most recommended treatment for older teenagers and adults.[/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”What is the treatment process?” _builder_version=”4.9.6″ _module_preset=”default”]Custom aligners are created after taking a mould of your teeth which can be used to create a digital scan or by scanning your teeth directly using the latest imaging technology. These scans are used to create your custom aligners. Aligners are shaped such that they apply pressure in the right places to shift the alignment of the teeth. Based on your orthodontist’s recommendation, your aligners might need to be changed every one or two weeks.[/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”How does Invisalign® treatment work?” _builder_version=”4.9.6″ _module_preset=”default”]These 3 easy steps can put you on the path to your brand-new smile.

The best person to guide you would be your Invisalign provider after the initial consultation. Please make sure to let your provider know of any other dental work you’ve had done.[/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”How will Invisalign® treatment affect my life?” _builder_version=”4.9.6″ _module_preset=”default”]It may take a day or two for your mouth to get the feel of the Invisalign aligners. This depends on person to person and is a temporary effect. Though it is recommended to keep the aligners for 20-22 hours per day for best outcomes, you may remove them for important occasions like weddings, job interviews etc.

However, removing the aligners for the purpose of smoking or using tobacco is a bad idea as the aligner trays get impacted and leads to overall wellness of your mouth and other organs as well.[/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”What happens when I am done with Invisalign® treatment?” _builder_version=”4.9.6″ _module_preset=”default”]

Following an invisalign® treatment, the steps to be followed are:

In some cases, your orthodontist can provide you the next set of aligners after conducting a thorough examination. However, in some cases, if your teeth have not moved enough to fit the next set of trays as part of the treatment plan, your orthodontist can get you the same set of aligner trays to continue the course of treatment which can cost around $100.[/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”How long should I wear retainer after Invisalign® treatment?” _builder_version=”4.9.6″ _module_preset=”default”]It is essential to wear the retainer for around 22 hours a day after Invisalign. This should continue for nearly 6 months – for some people, it might be longer than 6 months. After a couple of months of following the above routine, the patient’s teeth will be adjusted to the new alignment. The orthodontist may now suggest the patient put on the retainers only at night.

It is advisable to wear the retainer as long as the duration of the orthodontic treatment or as prescribed by the Orthodontist.[/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”What material are the clear aligners made from?” _builder_version=”4.9.6″ _module_preset=”default”]Invisalign^® aligners are usually made from acrylic material or plastic and fit firmly over the patient’s teeth.
