Invisalign is a wonderful new way to straighten your teeth without metal braces. Incisalign braces are done with a series of clear plastic aligners than move your teeth instead of using metal brackets, bands and wires. The whole process is significantly different than standard braces. The Invisalign dentist makes impressions of your upper and lower teeth with a special impression material called vinylpolysiloxane. These impressions are then sent to the manufacturing plant in California where a detailed x-ray CAT scan is taken of both of the impressions. The x-ray information is then used to created a highly accurate three dimensional computer image your teeth.

        With Invisalign treatment, every movement of every tooth is carefully planned before the actual Invisalign orthodontics begins. Using the patient's three dimensional computer image, the Invisalign dentist moves the teeth about into their most ideal arrangments. Once the best arrangement of the teeth and smile is determined, the computer determines the best way to get there. With traditional metal braces, the patient returns to see how everything it going and to adjust the orthodontic appliance to keep it on the correct pathway. It works but it's not as precise as computer planning. The Invisalign experience is significantly more pleasant than standard braces.

        With Invisalign you can clean your teeth the same way you normally do without braces and in many cases, patients only have to return to the dentist office every two months. This is great news and makes the Invisalign treatment method of orthodontic care ideal for busy adult professionals. There's no emergency orthodontic visits to replace broken off brackets and not special cleaning visits to compensate for the food collection all over metal brackets, bands and wires. In special cases, an Invisalign patient can sometimes return as little as every three months.
