The New Year is just around the corner, which means now is a great time to start thinking about what you would like to accomplish in 2025. If one of your goals is to finally address your misaligned smile, your team at Grinnell Street Dental in Sheridan, WY, is here to help. In today’s blog, we’re here to talk about how Invisalign can help you accomplish this goal discreetly and without uncomfortable brackets and wires.
How Invisalign Clear Aligners Work
Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment method that helps gradually shift your teeth into the correct placement. Like braces, this treatment option can help address problems such as gaps between your teeth, overlapping structures, and more. The trays are made of clear acrylic material, making them more discreet and comfortable than traditional brackets and wires. After being approved for this treatment, your dentist will take an impression of your teeth to create your custom series of trays. Each set of trays will be worn for a few weeks at a time before moving on to the next set, and they help gradually shift your pearly whites. Your clear aligners can be worn all day and at night, taking them out only during meals or for your oral hygiene routine. The process can take about one to two years to complete, depending on the severity of your misalignment.
Find Out If You’re A Good Candidate
Before you can get started with Invisalign, you will first need a consultation with your dentist. During this visit, they will carefully examine your smile and assess the severity of your misalignment. Invisalign can address many of the same problems as braces, but if you have more severe orthodontic concerns, your dentist may recommend other treatment options. If you have been approved for this method, your dentist will take an impression of your oral cavity to create your custom trays.
