How Invisalign Works

Custom-made trays that are clear and flexible will be created for you to wear for 20-22 hours each day. Placing gentle, continuous pressure on your teeth, the aligners will shift your smile in the right direction so that optimal function and aesthetics are achieved. Using state-of-the-art technology to produce comfortable trays, you can expect to wear them for a full 1-2 weeks before swapping them out for the next set in the series.

The Benefits of Invisalign

You will find that the benefits of Invisalign extend beyond their subtle look. While wearing braces that are not visibly noticeable to others is a bonus, these aligners also help to ensure better oral health and hygiene because of how easy they are to remove. You are also free to eat all your favorite foods because your aligners can be removed before eating or drinking. Invisalign also produces faster results for many patients, delivering straighter teeth in 12-18 months as opposed to 2-3 years with traditional braces.

Who Can Invisalign Help?

If crooked teeth, gaps, or bite misalignment are all you can see whenever you look at your smile in the mirror or a photo, you may be eligible for Invisalign treatment. This versatile orthodontic solution can treat all kinds of dental problems, such as:

Crowded Teeth

Tooth decay is just one of the heightened risks associated with crowded teeth. If floss and a toothbrush cannot adequately clean in between teeth, there is a chance that problems could arise. However, with Invisalign, added space is created to ensure better oral hygiene (and aesthetics) as you move through treatment.

Gaps Between Teeth

Having too large of a gap between your teeth can put you at risk for gum disease and cavities because of how easy it is for food and other objects to become lodged. By pursuing Invisalign, these clear aligners can help to bring teeth closer together so that better oral health is attained in the long run.

Bite Alignment

A slightly misaligned overbite, underbite, crossbite, or open bite can be enough to cause problems for your oral health, such as chronic jaw pain and worn-down tooth enamel. But with Invisalign, the trays can help to move teeth back into proper alignment so that everything inside your mouth works harmoniously together.

How Much Does Invisalign Cost?

Orthodontic treatment that doesn’t consist of traditional metal brackets might seem like something that is too far out of reach financially. However, the cost of Invisalign can vary quite a bit from patient to patient, so there is a good chance that you will be able to receive clear aligner treatment without emptying your wallet. Our team members will contact your dental insurance company to determine if you have coverage or what can be done to avoid high out-of-pocket expenses.

Propel

To speed up the timeframe, Dr. Partovi is pleased to incorporate Propel. This revolutionary system ensures greater comfort and predictability by helping teeth move more quickly, reducing treatment time by up to 50%. By making small perforations in the bone, they cause inflammation and help to stimulate cells that allow for faster tooth movement.

VPro

As an FDA-approved medical device, VPro is a hands-free appliance that is worn inside the mouth for 20 minutes each day. It can easily fit over clear aligners and minimize the amount of time between trays by up to 50%. The unique technology (SoftPulse) helps to create gentle vibrations that permeate the tooth roots and nearby bone. This quickens tooth movement for faster results.
