Invisalign® clear aligners offer a modern and convenient alternative to traditional braces, making it easier than ever for patients to achieve a straighter smile discreetly. We are proud to offer Invisalign clear aligners, helping patients enhance their smiles with minimal interference in their daily lives. Invisalign treatment utilizes a series of custom-made, nearly invisible aligners that gradually move teeth into their ideal position. This option is perfect for patients looking for a more subtle orthodontic solution.
The Benefits of Invisalign Treatment
Choosing Invisalign clear aligners at Olmos Park Family and Implant Dentistry provides several unique benefits, including:
- Comfort and Flexibility: Invisalign aligners are made from a smooth, BPA-free plastic material that reduces irritation in the mouth compared to metal braces.
- Removability: Patients can easily remove their aligners for eating, brushing and flossing, promoting better oral hygiene throughout treatment.
- Appearance: The transparent design of Invisalign aligners makes them virtually invisible, allowing patients to feel confident during treatment.
- Efficiency: With customized treatment plans and advanced technology, Invisalign aligners work to achieve results efficiently, often in a shorter time than traditional braces.
How Invisalign Aligners Work
The Invisalign treatment process begins with a consultation where Dr. Amogh Bhalerao or Dr. Margot Metz examine the patient’s teeth and creates a digital 3D image of their smile. This advanced imaging allows for a precise treatment plan tailored to each patient’s needs. Patients receive a series of aligners, each slightly adjusted to move the teeth gradually. Every two weeks, patients switch to a new set of aligners as their smile transforms step by step.
Throughout the treatment, our dentists will monitor progress and make any necessary adjustments, ensuring that the journey to a straightened smile is smooth and effective. Invisalign treatment is ideal for mild to moderate alignment issues, and each patient’s journey is unique.
