How long does treatment take?
Like traditional braces, the length of treatment depends on the complexity of the case. Treatment time typically is about the same as conventional braces—about a year.
Who can benefit from Invisalign?
General dentists can use Invisalign to treat the a growing number of people who want straighter teeth without the braces and wires. According to the Journal of the American Dental Association, two-thirds of American adults have some sort of malocclusion (crooked teeth) and could benefit from orthodontic treatment.
What are the primary benefits of Invisalign?
- Nearly invisible: You can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing.
- Removable: You can eat and drink what you want.
- Better oral hygiene: You can brush and floss normally to maintain healthy gums and teeth.
- Comfortable: There are no wires, metal or brackets to cause mouth abrasion.
