Invisalign 101: What You Need to Know

The Invisalign orthodontic system is designed to align your teeth and bite with a series of clear removable trays. You will wear each aligner for a few weeks, and then switch it out for the next in the series until treatment is complete. While the timeline varies from patient to patient, Invisalign orthodontic treatment usually lasts between 12 and 18 months.

Our Mesa dentists recommend Invisalign to treat multiple orthodontic issues at once, including:

  • Dental Overcrowding
  • Rotated Teeth
  • Overbites
  • Gapped Teeth
  • Underbites
  • Crossbites

Do I Need an Orthodontist for My Treatment?

An orthodontist specializes in diagnosing and creating treatment plans for malocclusion, or misaligned teeth. Although an orthodontist is often essential when it comes to complex cases, they are not necessary for you to be approved for Invisalign treatment.

The dentists at Las Sendas Dental Health in Mesa are trained in the Invisalign system and can determine if you are a candidate for clear aligners. Since these aligners are designed to straighten teeth that have mild to moderate misalignment, an orthodontist is not necessary to create a treatment plan.

Health Benefits of Invisalign

Invisalign has more than just cosmetic benefits. Teeth that are crowded or rotated are more difficult to clean than aligned teeth, increasing your risk of cavities, infections, and gum disease. Having evenly spaced teeth in proper alignment makes brushing and flossing easier.

Meanwhile, having an overbite or underbite can cause issues with your temporomandibular joints, which connect your jaw to your skull. Having an unbalanced bite can cause these joints to become inflamed, resulting in headaches, jaw pain, and other symptoms. The results of an Invisalign treatment plan can keep your smile healthy, comfortable, and attractive.

Preparing for Invisalign Treatment

You must be in good oral health and free of dental concerns such as tooth decay and gum disease before your treatment begins. This ensures a healthy foundation and reduces the chance of complications during treatment. If you have oral health concerns, our Mesa dentists offer comprehensive dentistry options to help you qualify for Invisalign treatment. During your initial consultation, your dentist will create a custom treatment plan to help you achieve the healthy, beautiful, and functional smile you have always dreamed of.

Invisalign Treatment Steps

"With proper maintenance, the results of treatment are essentially permanent."
"With proper maintenance, the results of treatment are essentially permanent."

Consultation

During your free initial consultation, our dentists will assess your oral health and identify the orthodontic concerns in your smile. We will discuss your goals and treatment options to help you determine the Invisalign system that's right for you.

Planning

Next, we will carefully plan your treatment using precise intraoral photos and digital impressions of your mouth. The scans are sent to the Invisalign lab, where technicians assess the level of misalignment and determine the estimated length of treatment. The lab will also create digital mock-ups of the results for you to preview.

Aligners

If you are satisfied with the mock-up, we will order your set of custom-made aligners. Wear each aligner in the series for about two weeks for a minimum of 20-22 hours a day (taking them off to eat, brush, and floss). We ask that you visit our office every six weeks so we can monitor your progress and make adjustments if necessary.

Transformation

Each aligner is carefully designed to put strategic pressure on your teeth. While you may experience some mild discomfort with the placement of each new aligner, the majority of treatment should be relatively pain-free. Over several months, your teeth will gradually shift into the proper position until optimal alignment is achieved.

Results

When you have completed the series, you will no longer need to wear your aligners during the day. However, we recommend wearing a retainer (or the last aligner in the set) every night as you sleep to prevent your teeth from moving. With proper maintenance, the results of treatment are essentially permanent.

Frequently Asked Questions About Invisalign Treatment

Are there dietary restrictions during Invisalign treatment?

Because the aligner trays are removable, there are no dietary restrictions during treatment. You can eat the foods you love without worrying about breaking or dislodging metal wires or brackets.

Does Invisalign treatment hurt?

There may be some mild discomfort when you first start treatment or when you switch to a new set of aligners. However, this is usually easily managed with over-the-counter pain medication and should only last a few days. If your pain is severe or your aligners rub or irritate your gums, please contact our Mesa dental office so we can address your concerns promptly.

Is there an age requirement for Invisalign treatment?

Patients who undergo Invisalign treatment need to be responsible enough to wear and maintain the aligners. Because of this, aligners may not be best for children. However, during your consultation, you and your dentist can discuss if your child may be a good candidate.

What should I do if I lose an aligner tray?

It is important that you wear your aligners for 20-22 hours a day. If you lose an aligner tray, wear the last tray you have for that dental arch and contact our office in Mesa, AZ, so we can get you a new one. We highly recommend using a protective case when you are not wearing your aligners to prevent losing them.
