Orthodontics with Invisalign
Orthodontics specializes in the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of dentofacial anomalies and dental misalignments. Issues related to malocclusion can affect oral health and quality of life.
Problems Related to Malocclusion:
- Smile aesthetics and self-esteem
- Function, chewing, and speech
- Muscular and joint problems (TMJ)
- Premature tooth wear
- Gum recession and bone loss
- Periodontal issues
- Difficulty maintaining oral hygiene and other pains
To correct these issues, orthodontic intervention may be necessary. Common techniques include traditional braces, removable appliances, and clear aligners like Invisalign.
Treatment with Invisalign:
Invisalign is a cutting-edge orthodontic treatment that uses clear aligners to straighten teeth without braces.
Advantages of Invisalign:
- Nearly invisible aligners
- Removable for eating and brushing teeth
- Increased comfort with less irritation
Invisalign Treatment Process:
- Consultation: Evaluation of your dental condition and determination of the suitability of Invisalign treatment.
- Digital Impressions: Using the ITero Element scanner to create an accurate model of your teeth.
- Treatment Planning: Analyzing digital images with ClinCheck software to plan each tooth movement.
- Aligner Fabrication: Aligners are custom-made based on the treatment plan.
- Aligner Placement: You will receive several sets of aligners to change every 1 to 2 weeks.
- Regular Follow-ups: Follow-up appointments to adjust the treatment as needed.
Invisalign treatment requires rigorous cooperation, with the aligners worn for at least 22 hours a day to be effective.
