Invisalign


Set of clear aligners resting in an Invisalign® branded case on a blue background.Invisalign is a method that straightens teeth using clear aligners. The technique is primarily employed in orthodontics. The impressions of the patient's teeth are used to manufacture Invisalign in the dental office. Contrary to traditional braces, which utilize fixed wires to straighten the teeth, Invisalign gradually moves your teeth into the correct position using a number of settings. Invisalign can correct various issues such as overbite, underbite, open bite, crossbite, crowded teeth, and gapped teeth. For more details about Invisalign, visit Columbia Dental.

Who is a Candidate for Invisalign?


Anyone who wishes to straighten their teeth and enhance their smile should consider Invisalign. They are suitable for teenagers because they rectify a variety of dental problems. As a result, the teens' dental health and esthetics enhance greatly. They are simple to apply and offer the shortest treatment period than other teeth alignment methods

Invisalign is a perfect option for adults who want a gorgeous smile but don't want to wear metal braces. It is good to note that Invisalign is not ideal for patients who want to straighten their premolars and molars. Your dentist can advise you on the most effective method for aligning your teeth.

Invisalign Procedure


Before beginning the Invisalign process, the dentist will gather more information from you, like your dental history. After that, they will elaborate on the Invisalign process and how the transparent aligners function. In addition, your dentist will carefully inspect your teeth, mouth, and face and capture images from different angles. The dentist will take x-rays and, if necessary, conduct other tests. After that, impressions of your teeth will be used to create your clear aligners.

The dentist may then perform an interproximal reduction, which entails enlarging the gaps between your teeth. Only those with crowded teeth should undergo this procedure. Your dentist will install clear aligners over your teeth. For maximum comfort, these aligners must be fitted appropriately. At first, using aligners may cause you some discomfort, but with time, you will adapt to them.

Your teeth may start to feel sensitive to hot or cold liquids, but this will pass with time. The trays may also slightly affect your pronunciation for the first few weeks. You'll receive advice from the dentist on how to take care of your Invisalign.

Advantages of Invisalign


Having Invisalign has a lot of advantages. The most significant benefit is that they enhance your teeth' esthetics, giving you a gorgeous, brighter smile. Second, unlike conventional braces, Invisalign is invisible. Additionally, since clear aligners are removable, you can take them out whenever you want to eat or brush your teeth.

Additionally, clear aligners are more pleasant since their texture closely resembles your natural teeth. Compared to traditional braces, they also require fewer orthodontic appointments and maintenance.
