There are a
number
of advantages to using invisalign, which make it an ideal choice for a range of cosmetic orthodontic treatments. The first is how discreet they are.
When worn they are barely visible when you smile, and will straighten your teeth without anyone knowing your secret. All they will see is the difference to your smile. Invisalign aligners are very comfortable and convenient. Unlike conventional braces wearing them is as simple as putting on a mouthguard, and they are also easily removable when you wish to eat, drink or clean your teeth. As there is nothing attached to your teeth, there is no extra steps to cleaning your teeth besides removing the aligner.
It takes approximately between 9 and 18 months to create a new smile using invisalign. Getting there takes just four simple steps: you meet with an invisalign provider for a consultation about your treatment. , based on your treatment plan and your dental records, a virtual 3d treatment plan is generated that shows you the expected movement of your teeth from their current position to the desired final position. Once you and your invisalign provider have approved the treatment plan, the aligners are custom-made to fit your teeth. The number of aligners varies for each person. You wear your aligners about 20 to 22 hours every day, except to eat, brush, and floss, or for a specific occasion.
Before a treatment plan can be created, dr ronan perry (our specialist orthodontist and certified invisalign provider) and his team will take an impression of your teeth to check whether they can be straightened using the invisalign system. Once confirmed, a detailed treatment plan will then be developed using clincheck®, a virtual 3d treatment plan. Clincheck shows the series of movements your teeth are projected to go through over the course of the treatment – so you can see how your smile is expected to look at the end of your invisalign treatment before it even begins.
Meet with your invisalign doctor and get a sneak peek at your new smile. By using the itero element scanner, your invisalign doctor can take a fast and precise 3d digital scan of your teeth and map out a custom treatment plan just for you.
Helen redmond “amazing experience with 3dental. Got invisalign which didn't move one tooth. Needed to get fixed braces but it was seamless. Also had my braces during covid pandemic. Although i could go to the surgery for appointments i received a number of calls making sure my aligned were ok and once back open i was seen immediately. I cannot recommend highly enough. ”lyle andre “outstanding service from start to finish, i recently had my braces removed after 2 years with 3dental and i have never been happier with my results. The lovely katrina was my very competent dentist for the majority of my time, katrina made sure any doubts or concerns i had were answered with complete clarity, and never left me unsure as to the next proceeding.
