Do you want the opportunity to get a straighter smile that transforms how you see yourself and others? We have good news! Invisalign, the invisible system of clear aligners used by millions of dental patients worldwide, could be the answer. Let Dr. Jonathan Shouhed and his team help you find the confidence to smile again!
Invisalign offers an alternative to regular braces without the hassle of brackets and wires. With a series of clear plastic aligners, Invisalign can fix an array of dental issues and give you the smile you've always wanted. Invisalign is a world-renowned teeth straightening system that uses customized clear aligners based on impressions or a digital scan of your teeth. Dr. J believes Invisalign is a great solution for patients seeking healthier and straighter smiles. You can achieve a perfect smile even faster with the Invisalign system, which consists of clear plastic aligners.
The clear aligners must be worn 20 to 22 hours a day for best results, except while eating, drinking any liquid but water, brushing, and flossing. In most cases, patients can see visible changes to their smiles within four to six months. Invisalign treatment begins with assessing how often aligners need to be changed to achieve optimal results. To create aligners, we use the cutting-edge iTero® Element™ digital scanner to create a smile simulation.
We see many patients who have been told that Invisalign won't work by another orthodontist. However, Invisalign works for many of the same orthodontic issues that metal braces do, such as:
Overbite
Underbite
Crossbite
Gapped teeth
Open bite
Crowded teeth
Additionally, Invisalign is a great option for people who wish to straighten their teeth in general and achieve their perfect smile. If an orthodontist or dentist has told you that Invisalign isn't for you, don't hesitate to contact Dr. J for a second opinion. He is highly skilled and experienced in treating all kinds of bites and misalignments with Invisalign.
There are several advantages to using Invisalign over traditional metal braces, including:
You won't experience the discomfort of metal brackets with Invisalign clear plastic aligners. They are more comfortable than braces.
Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign aligners are nearly invisible in your mouth when worn.
Cleaning your teeth during Invisalign treatment doesn't require any special tools. Pop out your aligners, brush, and floss, and replace them like normal.
Dr. J begins your Invisalign treatment by taking a digital scan of your teeth using the state-of-the-art iTero scanner. This small intraoral camera takes digital images of your bite, smile, and mouth inside and out. He uses those images to create a virtual model of your teeth and pre-planning treatment software to digitally map out the process for transforming your smile from its current alignment to the desired alignment.
A laboratory creates clear plastic aligners modeled after each of these "steps" using the information Dr. J sends. Designed to fit snugly over your smile, your aligners gradually shift your teeth closer to the next "step" on your alignment journey. Wearing your aligners for 22 hours a day, you move on to the next aligner every two weeks until you get your dream smile.
