Invisalign

Invisalign® teeth straightening for teens and adults.

What is it?

Invisalign is an orthodontic device that uses transparent, incremental aligners to adjust teeth as an alternative to traditional wire braces. These virtually invisible, removable, and comfortable aligners allow you to smile more during treatment as well as after.

Invisalign clear aligners are made with 3D computer imaging technology and have been proven effective in treating tooth alignment issues. However, not all patients are suitable for Invisalign treatment. Only a trained and licensed Invisalign provider can determine if you will be a suitable candidate. Tenth Line Family Dentistry is a Preferred Invisalign Provider in Orléans; book a consultation with us to see if Invisalign is the right solution for you.

Why would I want it?

Not only are the aligners virtually invisible, they are removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment. Plus, brushing and flossing are no problem. They are free from intrusive metals and wires, making them more comfortable to wear than traditional braces and which also means that less time needs to be spent coming in for adjustments.

How does it work?

You wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, removing them only to brush, floss, eat, and drink anything other than water. As you advance your aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move — little by little, day by day, week by week — until they have straightened to their designated final positions.

We will see you about once every six weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned. Total treatment time averages about 9 to 15 months and the average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but both will vary from person to person. Please ask us during your orthodontic consultation for more detailed explanations.

Invisalign Treatment: A Clear Solution for a Beautiful Smile

Invisalign aligners offer a revolutionary alternative to braces. These clear trays are custom-crafted to fit your teeth precisely, allowing for a comfortable and discreet orthodontic treatment experience.

Throughout your treatment, you will receive a series of aligners, each designed to gradually move your teeth closer to their ideal position. Invisalign clear aligners provide several advantages over traditional braces:

• Transparency: Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, ensuring that your orthodontic treatment remains discreet.
• Removability: Unlike braces, Invisalign aligners are removable, making it easier to enjoy your favorite foods, maintain proper oral hygiene, and brush and floss without obstruction.
• Comfort: Say goodbye to metal wires and brackets. Invisalign aligners are smooth and comfortable, minimizing the risk of cuts or irritation in your mouth.
• Convenience: Invisalign treatment offers relatively shorter treatment times and requires fewer visits to the dental office compared to traditional braces, providing you with added convenience and flexibility.
