Clear aligners, commonly referred to as Invisalign®, are custom orthodontic devices made from transparent plastic. They fit snugly over your teeth and work by applying gentle, controlled pressure to shift your teeth into their proper places.
You need to wear each tray of aligners for about two weeks before replacing it with the one in the series. As you progress through the aligner sets, your teeth gradually move closer to their desired positions. The process continues until your teeth are beautifully straightened.
Getting clear aligners or Invisalign at Georgetown Sedation Dentistry is a stress-free process for our patients.
The duration of treatment with Invisalign® varies depending on your dental needs. On average, the process can range from six months to two years. Our team will create a personalized plan to achieve the best results for your smile.
Clear aligners are a great option for many, but suitability varies. For example, clear aligners might not work well for fixing severe alignment issues or complex bite problems because they can't apply enough force to move the teeth as much as needed.
Lifestyle matters too – if you're forgetful or often remove them, they may not be the best fit either.
