Check out these 5 points of what to expect before you decide to try clear braces:
Complete health check – The first step is to get a thorough health check done by your Invisalign provider. They will find out if you have healthy and strong teeth and gums capable of coping with the treatment. If they find that you have poor oral health, they won’t fit these braces.
Scan process – If you have strong and healthy teeth and gums, the dentist will take a detailed mould of the teeth which is then used for the formation of a cast to be scanned onto a computer. This will enable the dentist to create a 3D model of your teeth and gums. This information will help to form the initial stages for proper alignment of your teeth to the final position.
The first set of teeth – After the first set of aligners is ready, you will then see your dentist to get them fitted properly. The Invisalign dentist will make sure that you can wear them comfortably. You will be given advice on how long you will have to wear them in a day, when you can remove them and how to take care of them.
After two weeks – After two weeks of wearing the set of aligners, you will need to change to the next set. This new pair of aligners will be a bit different from the first pair to move teeth in their desired position. You need to continue to see your dentist for new aligners throughout the treatment process.
After six to eighteen months – The procedure for teeth alignment usually takes half the time with invisible braces than with traditional braces. The whole experience will be easy and comfortable.
