1.
An Invisalign Certified Orthodontist or Dentist evaluates and creates a program of treatment. Photos and impressions of your teeth are taken. |
|
2.
A CT scan (Computed Tomography or CAT scan), is made from your dental impressions. The CT scan produces an extremely accurate, 3-dimensional digital model of your teeth. |
3.
CAD (Computer Aided Design) software is then used to simulate the movement of your teeth during treatment. |
4.
Our Orthodontist reviews, modifies, and approves the treatment plan before the aligners are created. |
5.
Invisalign then uses advanced stereolithography (SLA) technology to build precise molds of your teeth at each stage of your treatment. |
6.
Individualized, custom-created clear aligners are made from these models and sent to our doctor's office. |
7.
You’ll receive your aligner series, switching to a new aligner every two weeks as your teeth move. Just wear each set of aligners night and day for a two week period,
removing them only to eat, brush and floss. Visit your Invisalign provider on a regular basis for progress checks. Each case is a little different, but on average,
treatment lasts about a year. Then you can show the real you with an amazing new smile! |
