Invisalign
treatment overview
We show panoramic and cephalometric X-rays and digital simulations, so you can see what treatment will do before it starts.
Impressions and digital scan
During the first step, the dentist will take impressions of your teeth and digitize them.
Your treatment is mapped out
From these impressions, your doctor can create and manipulate a digital model of your teeth to plan how they will move.
Wear each set of aligners
You wear each set of clear aligners as prescribed, and they move your teeth gradually.
Change trays every couple of weeks
Every couple of weeks, patients change the aligners as prescribed by the dentist. The aligners gradually reposition the teeth little by little until you reach your final result.
FAQs about
Invisalign
Here are the questions we’re asked most often. If yours isn’t covered, ask us during your free consultation.
What are the benefits of Invisalign?
Invisalign clear aligners offer adults and teens a discreet way to straighten their teeth without metal braces. Because the aligners are removable, you can take them out to eat, brush, and floss. For the best results, wear them for the amount of time prescribed by your orthodontist.
Do you offer Invisalign for children?
No. Orthodontic Options offers Invisalign treatment for adults and teens, not children.
How long does treatment last?
Although the actual length of time depends on the individual case, usually Invisalign will straighten your smile in 6 to 18 months, often less time than traditional braces.
Since the aligners are removable, can I take them out whenever I want?
You can remove your aligners for eating, brushing, flossing, and occasional special events, but you should wear them for the number of hours prescribed by your orthodontist.
