8 Facts About Invisalign Clear Aligners

invisalign clear aligners

Invisalign clear aligners were created over a decade ago. They have transformed orthodontics, improving the options to straighten teeth. Dr. Gutierrez is a Diamond Invisalign Provider. This showcases his knowledge and expertise in treating orthodontics with Invisalign treatment.

8 Facts About Invisalign Clear Aligners:

1) Aligners are removable and close to invisible.

Aligners are a clear plastic material. This means most people will never even know you’re wearing them! The ease of removing the clear aligners makes your orthodontic treatment more enjoyable.

2) Invisalign consists of a series of aligners.

Dr. G will instruct you on how often and when to change your aligners at home. Typically aligners are changed every 7-14 days. Invisalign aligners gradually straighten your teeth. Additionally,  you may have attachments to help with efficient tooth movement.

3) Invisalign is affordable & effective.

Invisalign clear aligners will not disrupt your busy schedule. They won’t break your bank either! At KCC Orthodontics, we commit to offering comparable pricing. Invisalign is a great option for both adults and teens.

4) Aligners can be worn during sports.

You can wear your aligners when playing for sport or fun. Aligners may help protect teeth from impact as well.

5) New aligners may feel tight for up to 48 hours.

Initial tightness with the change of aligners is natural. This is a result of your teeth moving into the new position of the aligner. We recommend changing your Invisalign clear aligners at night to ease initial tightness.

6) Good oral hygiene is easier to maintain.

You will remove your Invisalign aligners to brush and floss teeth. This means that regular dental hygiene practices remain the same.

7) No personal sacrifices with Invisalign aligners.

You can continue to eat your favorite foods. That’s right! Go ahead and enjoy popcorn, fried chicken, skittles, and corn on the cob. Because Invisalign clear aligners are removable, these foods are still an option!

8) Treatment time varies.

Aligner count may vary from one Invisalign case to another. The aligner count varies based on your unique treatment plan. Additionally, we expect you to wear your aligners to each appointment. Appointments are vital with Invisalign clear aligners. You’ll only receive so many aligners at a time, receiving more at each appointment.

Dr. Gutierrez was one of the founding doctors in providing Invisalign orthodontic treatment. He commits to providing an extraordinary experience during your treatment.

Our website offers video testimonials from patients and parents on their Invisalign experience. We offer free Invisalign consultations every week. Our Katy ClearChoice Orthodontics team looks forward to meeting you!

Hey there! 👋 Meet our Treatment Coordinators, Nessa, Amy, and Kristy!

As a Treatment Coordinator or TC, these ladies' role is to meet with each one of our new patients!

You can expect them to listen to your needs and desires and then relay them to Dr. Gutierrez.

They’ll gather notes from Dr. G as he determines the correct treatment plan. 📝 Then explain all the ortho terms to you in a way you can better understand!

Our Treatment Coordinators will put together estimated fees based on your unique treatment plan and go over them with you.

Before ending your appointment, you’ll have time to ask questions or express any additional concerns.

At that time you can go ahead and schedule 🗓 if you’re ready to do so!

All of our consultations are complimentary (free of charge!). We can’t wait to meet you!
