Among the orthodontic methods available in the market is Invisalign, which is an alternative to conventional braces that replaces metal (or ceramic) arches and braces with transparent covers or liners. If by chance you have crooked teeth, misaligned or crammed teeth, we are here to treat your issues with Invisalign.

This is technique called as a technical addition to orthodontic treatment and represents a radical change in its conception, since it lacks wires, bracelets, and other moving parts, as is the case with the elastic. In addition, it represents an aesthetic solution, being transparent and barely perceptible by the people. It is completely invisible, and one can detach the same anytime, during meals, brushing or flossing your teeth, while sleeping and anytime when you like. We make sure after carrying out the corresponding study and building a model of how both dental arcades should remain, using a 3D computer program, the treatment is planned in detail. We make sure to manufacture the arch with high-quality materials that are precisely adapted to the dentures and inside them are placed a series of elements (aligners), also made to measure, which are the ones that exert the necessary strength to gradually take the teeth to the desired position.

Who is Invisalign for?

With Invisalign one can correct different problems including:

  • Crammed teeth
  • Interdental spaces too wide
  • Upper teeth overlapped with the lower teeth when closing the mouth (overbearing)
  • Crossbite (jaws misaligned)
  • Lower front teeth ahead of the upper front (protrusion)

How does it work?

After attending the dental consultation with our pros, we will take records with an intraoral scanner to obtain the necessary measures to make the Invisalign. Afterward, you will be able to see a 3D representation of the final result and how long the treatment will last. The software allows getting detailed images of the different phases of the process, which serve as a reference for modifying and changing the splints every 2 weeks. The duration of treatment will depend on the problems to be corrected, but in some cases, it may be even lower than that of traditional orthodontics, over which it also offers other advantages, like-

  • It allows proper oral hygiene, as it is enough to remove the splints while cleaning is carried out.
  • Eating using the same offers comfort and prevents any remains of food attached to the device.
  • They can be removed on specific occasions (work meetings, family celebrations, etc.), without losing efficacy in treatment.

Once you have the Invisalign, you will need to change them approximately every two weeks as your teeth are repositioning. You will need to use them for most of the day and just remove them to eat and brush your teeth.
