Invisalign in Kerrisdale
Invisalign
Many patients enjoy the discreet and comfortable orthodontic treatment plan provided by Invisalign. Using custom-made plastic aligners, the system slowly shifts your teeth into new positions. This allows you to achieve the straight, even smile you’ve always wanted, all without the need for traditional braces.
The Benefits of Invisalign
- Nearly invisible trays for discreet treatment
- Removable trays for convenient eating and cleaning
- Comfortable in the mouth, with smooth plastic edges and no wires
- Fewer visits to the dentist during treatment
- Can work for adults and teens
What to Expect from Invisalign
Invisalign starts with a detailed assessment to ensure that the treatment is right for you. Once we’ve determined you’re a candidate, we can begin your custom treatment planning, which will include designing a series of custom trays for you to be worn over a specific period of time. The system uses 3D imaging technology to ensure we coordinate the precise movements needed to bring your teeth into their ideal positions.
Clear Aligner Therapy in Kerrisdale
In clear aligner therapy, transparent plastic trays are used to slowly shift the teeth into more desirable positions. This allows patients to achieve their goals of straighter, more well-aligned teeth in a discreet way. The trays can also be easily removed for eating and cleaning, leading to fewer restrictions and an easier treatment process.
What to Expect from Clear Aligner Therapy
When clear aligners are used to straighten the teeth, you’ll begin with a consultation with your dentist, who will take detailed images of your teeth. Your treatment will then be planned out and you’ll begin wearing your first set of aligners. Over time, you’ll switch them out for new aligners. Each set will slowly move your teeth into new positions, until they’ve arrived at their final locations.
Who is Eligible for Clear Aligner Therapy?
Clear aligner therapy is an excellent treatment option for those with mild to moderate alignment needs. Many clear aligner brands work for both adults and teens. Your dentist will need to assess your needs from your first appointment and during subsequent appointments throughout your treatment process.
