What is Invisalign?
How Does Invisalign Work?
The first step in the Invisalign process is a consultation with a trained orthodontist, like those at Red & Ritchey Orthodontics. The orthodontist in Joliet, Wilmington, Minooka, Morris, and New Lenox, IL, will evaluate your teeth and discuss your treatment goals to determine if Invisalign is right.
If Invisalign is a good fit, the orthodontist will take impressions of your teeth and create a customized treatment plan. The images create a series of aligners designed to move your teeth slightly until they reach the desired position.
Patients wear each set of aligners for two weeks before switching to the next stage in the series. The length of treatment varies depending on the severity of the patient’s orthodontic issues, but most patients complete treatment within 12 to 18 months.
Benefits of Invisalign Treatment with Red & Ritchey Orthodontics
-
- Discreet Treatment
- One of the main benefits of Invisalign treatment is that the aligners are virtually invisible when worn. This makes them popular for adults and teens who may feel self-conscious about wearing traditional braces. With Invisalign, you can enjoy a straighter smile without the visible metal brackets and wires associated with traditional braces.
-
- Comfortable Treatment
- Invisalign treatment is also more comfortable than traditional braces. The aligners are made from a smooth plastic material that is gentle on the teeth and gums. There are no metal brackets or wires to irritate the mouth and no need for painful adjustments.
-
- Removable Aligners
- Another benefit of Invisalign treatment is that the aligners are removable. As a result, patients can take them out to eat, brush, and floss, making it easier to maintain good oral hygiene throughout the treatment process. With traditional braces, food can get stuck in the brackets and wires, making it more challenging to keep the teeth and gums healthy.
-
- Effective Results
- Invisalign treatment is also highly effective at straightening teeth. The custom-made aligners gradually shift teeth into their proper position over time, resulting in a beautiful and healthy smile. In addition, Invisalign can correct many orthodontic issues, including crowded teeth, gaps between teeth, and bite problems.
