How Invisalign Aligners Work: Achieving a Straighter Smile with Ease

If you’ve ever felt self-conscious about your smile because your teeth are not as straight as they could be, chances are you’ve considered getting braces. However, the look and hassle of traditional metal braces are often a barrier that keeps people from seeking treatment. That’s why here at Edmondson Family Dental, Dr. Jon Edmonson is proud to offer the Invisalign teeth straightening treatment as a discrete and easy-to-use alternative to metal braces.

Treatment That’s Virtually Invisible 

The biggest benefit of Invisalign is found right in the name — it’s almost invisible!

The system uses a series of custom-made aligners that follow the same principles as traditional braces. Each aligner gradually moves your teeth a little at a time. Thanks to the clear, biocompatible, high-grade plastic material, you can wear Invisalign anywhere and not have to worry about showing your teeth.

These aligners are designed to fit your smile nicely and snugly, so you never need to worry about them falling out.

Comfortable and Convenient

One thing about the Invisalign experience that stands out to many of our clients is how easy it is to maintain your normal routine. Since the aligners are removable, you can still enjoy all your favorite foods. You can’t say the same about traditional metal braces as often food would get stuck in hard-to-reach places. But, with Invisalign, you can remove your braces to eat and clean your teeth. We strongly recommend brushing your teeth after each meal before putting your aligners back in to help keep them clean and fresh.

Plus, compared to traditional braces, Invisalign is much more comfortable. The aligners are smooth, and you won’t have to deal with metal brackets or wires that can irritate your gums.

A Customized Treatment Plan Just For You

During your Invisalign journey, Dr. Jon Edmondson and his knowledgeable team will guide you on the path to a better smile. What makes Invisalign so effective is Dr. Edmondson’s personalized treatment plan for each patient. During your consultation, you’ll be given a clear breakdown of how long the treatment will take and what to expect at each stage. Knowing that your smile will gradually improve over time will be reassuring. With Invisalign, you’ll switch to a new set of aligners every one to two weeks, each one bringing you closer to a straighter smile.

Enjoy A Confidence Boost

One thing our clients are surprised by after starting their Invisalign journey is how much more confident they feel, even during the treatment. Knowing that your teeth are being straightened discreetly allows you to smile without worry. As the aligners work to correct alignment issues, you’ll notice improvements in your smile, which can really boost your self-esteem.

Thanks to our scanning and predictive 3D modeling program, you can even see what your smile will look like before you get started. Knowing exactly how your results will look can inspire you to stick to your treatment.
