Invisalign for Adults: Improving Oral Health and Well-being
14 Jun 2023

Adults can achieve beautiful and straight teeth like never before with Invisalign, a modern orthodontic treatment option specifically designed for adult patients. Invisalign is an alternative orthodontic treatment to traditional metal braces. It is a series of custom-made, clear aligners, made of special medical-grade plastic, that are designed to gradually and gently move your teeth into the desired alignment. With Invisalign, you can enjoy straight teeth and a beautiful smile that will boost your self-esteem and confidence without anyone knowing you’re undergoing orthodontic treatment.

How Does Invisalign Work?

Invisalign is a form of orthodontic treatment for adults, which uses custom-made, clear aligners to shift teeth into the desired position. It is a unique system that can be used to address different issues including crowding, gaps, overbites, and underbites. The aligners apply light pressure to your teeth, resulting in gradual movement and realignment without the bulkiness and awkwardness of traditional braces.

The aligners are changed every two weeks as your teeth gradually move to their desired positions. During each adjustment, a new aligner is provided to facilitate the treatment process. The treatment length usually takes about 12 months, depending on your orthodontic needs.

Here’s a closer look at how Invisalign works:

  1. Examination for eligibility.
  2. Digital impressions for custom aligners.
  3. Aligner try-on and wearing instructions.
  4. Bi-weekly check-ups and new aligners.
