Many adults don’t consider straightening their smiles because they don’t want to compromise a sophisticated image. Invisalign allows patients to realign their teeth without the inconvenience and unsightly appearance of traditional braces. This revolutionary system uses clear, removable, custom aligners to gradually move teeth into optimal position.
With 3-D imaging, Dr. Patel can design an individualized treatment plan and then order a series of custom aligners from the Invisalign lab. Patients wear each aligner for about two weeks before moving to the next in their series. Every six weeks or so, Dr. Patel needs to see the patient to assess progress. Typically, treatment takes 12 to 18 months. With Invisalign, you can achieve a beautiful smile and still present a polished, graceful appearancen to the world. You can simply remove your aligner whenever you need to, but try to wear it about 22 hours per day for best results.
