What Happens At An Invisalign Consultation?
Meet Invisalign braces – the teeth straightening treatment taking the world by storm. Having successfully treated millions of patients around the world, will you be next to try these simple, clear, removable braces?
In this post, our expert dentists share every step and stage of treatment so you know what to expect when you book Invisalign braces here at our Liskeard dental practice.
Step 1: Consultation
The first step on your Invisalign braces journey is our initial consultation, held at our dental practice in Liskeard.
Our dentist will check your smile to ensure Invisalign braces are appropriate for you and if so, will then take a special 3D scan of your teeth. This enables us to create a virtual guide to how your teeth change during your treatment, and what your smile will look like for your results.
Step 2: Treatment
Invisalign braces are simple and straightforward. You’re given aligners to wear throughout your treatment, which move your teeth into their new positions bit by bit. You’ll change these every few weeks, and our dentists will advise when this needs to be done.
You can also attend regular appointments here at our Liskeard dental practice to ensure everything’s on track with your treatment, and get advice or information if you need it.
Step 3: Results
Finally – the smile you’ve been waiting for! Even though you’ll see how your teeth have moved over time, and you’ll have an accurate prediction of the results thanks to the 3D scans we take at the consultation stage, noting will prepare you for the unveiling of your results!
Invisalign braces can treat patients in as little as 12 months, but however long your treatment takes, the most important thing is that you have a straighter, more confident smile which you can enjoy sharing with the world.
And finally…
We’ll now share a few tips for keeping your Invisalign braces looking
their best throughout treatment.
– Remove when eating and cleaning your teeth, to prevent damage or staining
– Store when not wearing, or use Invisalign’s cleaning crystals to soak and
clean your aligners
– Wear 20-22 hours per day to keep on track with treatment
– Change to your next set of aligners when advised, to optimise your results
