Straighten Your Teeth Discreetly with Invisalign® at Dentist of Margate
Invisalign® offers a modern, nearly invisible method to straighten your teeth without the wires and brackets of traditional braces. At Dentist of Margate, Dr. Jarrett and the team provide personalized Invisalign® treatments designed to create beautiful smiles with minimal disruption to your daily life.
What is Invisalign®?
Invisalign® is an innovative teeth straightening system that uses custom-made, clear plastic aligners to gradually shift your teeth into the desired position. Each aligner is worn for about two weeks before moving on to the next in the series, gradually moving your teeth towards their optimal alignment. This method is favored for its discreet appearance and its ability to be removed when eating, brushing, or during special occasions.
How Invisalign® Works
Invisalign® is a sophisticated orthodontic system designed to straighten teeth through a series of clear, custom-made aligners. Below, we break down each phase of the treatment to give you a clear understanding of what to expect during your Invisalign® journey at Dentist of Margate:
- Consultation and Planning: Your journey with Invisalign® begins with a consultation at Dentist of Margate. Dr. Jarrett will conduct a thorough dental assessment, including digital scans of your teeth, to determine if Invisalign® is the best solution for your orthodontic needs.
- Custom Aligners: Utilizing advanced 3D computer imaging technology, a complete treatment plan is developed from the initial position of your teeth to the final desired position. Custom aligners are then created specifically for your teeth.
- Treatment Process: You will wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move gradually until they have straightened to the final position prescribed by Dr. Jarrett.
- Progress Monitoring: Regular check-ups with Dr. Jarrett ensure your treatment is progressing as planned. These visits are quick and do not require the frequent adjustments of traditional braces.
Benefits of Invisalign®
Choosing Invisalign® for orthodontic treatment offers numerous advantages over traditional braces, from aesthetic considerations to improved comfort and convenience:
- Aesthetics: Invisalign® aligners are clear and nearly invisible, unlike metal braces, making them an ideal choice for adults and teenagers who prefer a more subtle orthodontic treatment.
- Comfort: Crafted from smooth, flexible plastic, Invisalign® aligners are custom-fitted to the contours of your teeth and gums, eliminating irritation caused by traditional braces.
- Convenience: The removable nature of Invisalign® aligners allows for easy eating and cleaning, offering unparalleled convenience compared to traditional braces.
- Predictability: Advanced planning using 3D imaging technology maps out the movements of your teeth, allowing you and Dr. Jarrett to visualize the expected outcome before starting treatment.
- Health Benefits: Easier cleaning with removable aligners reduces risks of plaque buildup and gum disease compared to traditional braces.
Caring for Your Invisalign® Aligners
Maintaining your Invisalign® aligners is crucial for the success of your treatment. Here are some tips on how to care for your aligners effectively:
- Daily Cleaning: Clean your aligners each time you brush your teeth. Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and lukewarm water to gently scrub the aligners. Avoid using toothpaste directly on the aligners as it can be abrasive.
- Avoid Hot Water: Never clean your aligners with hot water, as it can warp the plastic.
- Storage: Always store your aligners in the protective case provided when not in use to prevent damage and contamination.
