BEFORE & AFTER
TESTIMONIALS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do you take care of your Invisalign trays?
Taking care of your Invisalign trays is easy and simple. Each morning and night, you should take out your Invisalign aligners and thoroughly clean both your teeth and trays. It’s recommended that you rinse your trays with water, antibacterial soap, and a soft-bristled toothbrush to prevent plaque and bacteria from building up. You should also soak your aligners once a day and rinse them before putting them back in your mouth.
How long does it take to straighten teeth with Invisalign?
Invisalign treatment is different from patient to patient, depending on the severity of their orthodontic condition. Typically, it will take 12 to 18 months to straighten your teeth, but in some cases, Invisalign can take as little as six months. Each aligner is worn for 1 to 3 weeks, depending on your individual treatment. Typically you will pick up a new set of aligners every 6 to 8 weeks. This process will continue until your teeth are aligned to perfection.
What does an Invisalign do?
Invisalign is a series of removable clear plastic aligners that are custom-made and designed to gradually move your teeth towards the desired position. These aligners can be used to correct crooked teeth, crowding, or overlapping teeth by gently guiding them into place.
Can I remove my braces and get Invisalign?
Yes! It is possible to switch from traditional metal braces to Invisalign clear aligners. However, it may not be an option for some patients, depending on their individual circumstances. If you’re curious about getting Invisalign, it’s best to schedule a consultation with Dr. Haywood. He’ll examine your teeth and orthodontic situation to determine if Invisalign is right for you.
What can I eat/drink while wearing Invisalign?
While using Invisalign aligners, you can eat all of your favorite foods and drink whatever you’d like. Remove them for each snack or meal and brush your teeth before putting them back in. Dr. Haywood recommends taking out your trays when drinking alcohol or darker beverages to prevent any discoloration or staining. These beverages may include red wine, cranberry juice, dark beer, and more.
Is Invisalign as good as braces?
Yes! Each patient is different, so Dr. Haywood should determine your optimal teeth straightening treatment. In most cases, braces are usually better for people with severe crooked teeth or alignment issues. Invisalign is best for adults who want a quick, comfortable, and nearly invisible teeth straightening method.
