What Are Invisible Braces?
Invisalign clear aligners are a treatment to address bite misalignment problems. This process is effective in treating crooked, crowded, and gapped teeth. Invisalign treatment consists of clear graduating trays that are customized to your unique bite pattern and apply pinpoint pressure to gently shift your teeth into the optimal position to create a straight, beautiful smile.
Invisalign treatment is convenient and fits in easily with your daily routine and lifestyle. Since the trays are removable, it requires some discipline to achieve your desired results. The trays must be worn for at least 22 hours each day for full effectiveness. Because of this, we only offer clear aligners to responsible teens and adults who will commit to the treatment.
What Are the Benefits of Clear Aligners?
Invisalign treatment is increasingly popular because of the many benefits it offers. The clear trays are discreet and allow you to straighten your smile without anyone knowing you're receiving treatment. The aligners are made from smooth, body-safe plastic. This means that it won't irritate your cheeks and lips because there are no bulky wires or brackets.
The trays are removable, so you don't have to worry about changing your diet during treatment. You will simply remove your trays before you eat or drink and put them back in once you have finished your meal.
A straight smile is about more than aesthetics. Having evenly spaced teeth makes them easier to clean and care for during your daily oral hygiene routine. This helps to prevent cavities and gum disease and leads to improved overall dental health.
Our Invisalign Treatment Process
The moment you step into our dental practice in Fontana, you discover a team that makes you a priority. We combine years of experience with a gentle chairside manner to create a positive experience every time you visit.
We begin with a gentle and thorough exam of your teeth, jaws, and gums and take precise impressions to determine if Invisalign clear aligners are right for you. Our friendly team will discuss the requirements of the treatment and how long the process will take so you can make an informed, confident decision.
Next, we send the impressions and the information we gathered from your exam to a trusted lab where your custom trays will be crafted. Once we have received your series of clear aligners, we invite you to our office to collect your trays and provide instructions and tips to get you started on your journey to a straighter smile. Once you have completed your Invisalign treatment, you can select the type of retainer that is right for you. We also offer teeth whitening as part of your final treatment with clear aligners.
Invisalign Clear Aligners FAQs
We believe that knowledge is power, which is why we encourage you to ask questions and share your concerns. Our gentle team is happy to provide the answers you need to make an informed decision regarding your treatment plan. Here are some of the most common questions we receive about invisible braces:
The cost of your treatment will depend on the severity of your bite misalignment and the timeline for your specific Invisalign treatment journey. We care about making quality dental care available to all of our patients, which is why we work with various PPO insurance companies and offer payment plans as well as CareCredit®.
One of the many benefits of clear trays is that they are removable. This means you will be able to brush and floss your teeth twice daily without working around brackets or wires.
The length of your treatment is determined by your bite situation and how faithful you are to following the guidelines of the treatment. If you wear your clear aligners consistently for 22 hours each day, then you are on your way to achieving your dream smile in the treatment time we provide. In general, most Invisalign treatments last 6-18 months.
It's important to clean your aligners every day using a soft toothbrush, lukewarm water, and an approved cleaner, like a mild antibacterial soap. Avoid using hot water, as it can warp the plastic and hinder your progress. You can also use Invisalign cleaning crystals to keep your aligners clear and hygienic.
You may experience minor speech changes when you first start wearing your new aligners. However, this typically resolves within a few days as you grow accustomed to the trays.
If you lose or damage an aligner, contact our office immediately. Depending on where you're at in your treatment, we may advise you to wear the previous set of aligners or move on to the next set. In some cases, we may order you a new aligner. It's important to follow our instructions to avoid disrupting your treatment plan.
