Invisalign® is a teeth straightening option that doesn't interfere with the appearance of a bright smile. The Orthodontist at Willow Glen Dental Specialists in San Jose, California, is here to help her patients achieve the beautiful and straight smile they want. Arrange a visit with Willow Glen Dental Specialists to discuss Invisalign and whether it's the right option for teeth straightening.
Invisalign and ClearCorrect are teeth straightening systems that use clear retainer style aligners rather than metal or ceramic brackets and wires. If you have mild to moderate teeth alignment problems, Invisalign or ClearCorrect may be good options to consider.
Invisalign and ClearCorrect help correct many different teeth alignment issues, including all of the following:
Invisalign or ClearCorrect treatment can be different for every patient. The orthodontist can give you an estimated treatment time before you begin clear aligner therapy, although this can change based on how you respond to treatment. For most patients, Invisalign or ClearCorrect treatment lasts for around a year, but it can be as little as six months or as much as two years.
You'll wear multiple sets of aligners over the course of your Invisalign or ClearCorrect treatment. You'll change the aligners out for new ones twice a month, or possibly sooner, based on the amount of movement needed.
You'll wear Invisalign or ClearCorrect for around 22 hours a day on average. The only time that your aligners aren't worn is while eating and while brushing.
