Invisalign In Werribee

Who Is Eligible for Invisalign?

You may be suitable for Invisalign if you have:

• Gaps between your teeth
• Overbite
• Underbite
• Open bite
• Crossbite
• Overly crowded teeth
• Crooked or misaligned teeth

While Invisalign is used to treat mild to moderate corrections, it may be suitable to resolve some complex cases depending on the condition of your teeth. Consulting our dentist is the best way to figure out if you’re eligible for this treatment.

Invisalign aligners are not well suited for children since their teeth are still growing and developing. The process will usually take between 10 to 24 months. If you had braces as a child, you can correct slightly shifted teeth in as little as 10 weeks.

How Does Invisalign Work?

With Invisalign, correcting misaligned teeth and jaws involves just three steps. They include:

• Consultation: During this initial consultation, our dentist will comprehensively assess your mouth and teeth to determine your eligibility for Invisalign. We will discuss your smile goals and develop a personalised treatment plan after taking digital impressions and images of your teeth.
• Treatment: Our dentists will fabricate your custom-made Invisalign aligners to begin treatment. Once they are ready, you’ll have to wear each set of aligners for about 20 to 22 hours for 2 weeks before moving on to the next set. You may remove them when eating, drinking and brushing your teeth.
• Follow-Up: You’ll need to visit our clinic every 6 to 8 weeks to review progress. You will receive your next set of aligners during these follow-up appointments.
• Maintaining your smile: Now that you’ve achieved your dream smile, the next step is retain it with good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups. You will also need to wear retainers for a short period once you are done using the aligners. Our dentist will recommend how often you should wear them.

Why Should I Choose Invisalign Over Traditional Braces?

• Clear aligners are virtually invisible, making them an excellent choice for individuals who want a discreet orthodontic treatment.
• These smooth plastic clear aligners are more comfortable compared to brackets and wires, reducing irritation to your cheeks and gums.
• You can take out the aligners for eating, drinking, and cleaning your teeth, which helps maintain better oral hygiene, reduces your risk of decay and prevents any limitations to your diet throughout the treatment.
• They can be removed when playing high-contact sports that require wearing a mouthguard, which is not possible with traditional braces.
• With fewer dental appointments and less time spent in the dental chair for adjustments, Invisalign fits well into your busy schedule.
• Invisalign can effectively treat a wide range of orthodontic issues, such as overcrowding, gaps, overbites, underbites, and crossbites.
