KATY CLEAR CHOICE ORTHODONTICS INVISALIGN 101

That perfect smile you’ve always envisioned? It’s closer than you think. You’ve heard about Invisalign, the discreet and convenient way to transform your teeth. But maybe you’re wondering, ‘Is it right for me?’ You’re not alone. Many people are curious about Invisalign’s potential, and rightfully so. Let’s break down the essentials of Invisalign, giving you the clarity to decide if this is the key to unlocking your confident smile.

The Basics

Invisalign is an orthodontic clear aligner treatment that is custom-made to your teeth. These clear aligners straighten your teeth and correct your bite! Invisalign aligners are made of SmartTrack, flexible plastic. This proprietary, medical-grade material delivers more predictable tooth movement. You’ll typically switch to a new set of aligners every one to two weeks, gradually moving your teeth into the desired position.

Invisalign differs from traditional braces by being removable and more custom-tailored to your lifestyle. At KCC Orthodontics, our office uses the iTero Scanner to digitally scan your teeth at the beginning of treatment. After careful and customized treatment planning by Dr. Gutierrez, your 3D imaging is sent to the lab. There, your personalized aligners are printed using highly advanced 3D printing technology.

Let’s explore the many advantages that make Invisalign such a popular choice.

The Benefits

One of the most appealing aspects of Invisalign is its virtually invisible nature. Its clear aligners are designed to be discreet, allowing you to maintain your natural appearance while gradually transforming your smile. This is a game-changer for adults and teens who want to avoid the visibility of traditional braces.

Invisalign aligners are designed for comfort, providing a smooth and gentle experience. The ability to remove them for meals and oral hygiene routines also adds a level of convenience that fits seamlessly into your lifestyle. Enjoy the freedom to eat your favorite foods and maintain a healthy smile without extra hassle.

Invisalign can often provide faster results than traditional braces. The tailored approach, combined with the continuous pressure of the aligners, can contribute to efficient tooth movement. Of course, consistent wear and adherence to your treatment plan are essential for achieving optimal results. It’s also important to remember that treatment time is unique to each patient, and Dr. Gutierrez will provide a personalized estimate during your consultation.
