THE INVISALIGN PROCESS

Save time and money with these Invisalign treatments in Shrewsbury, PA

Your journey begins with an initial consultation with Dr. Haywood. If Invisalign is right for you, we’ll use 3D computer imaging technology to create a customized set of aligners to match the shape of your unique bite. Invisalign allows you to view your own virtual treatment plan before you start, so you can see how your teeth will look after the process is complete.

After receiving your first pair of aligners, you’ll receive a new set every two weeks until your treatment is complete. Aligners work by gradually shifting your teeth into proper alignment until the final position is achieved, typically in 12 to 18 months.

TESTIMONIALS

I had a great experience with my Invisalign treatment plan. Dr. Haywood worked wonders at my last visit to make sure that I was confident in my smile. Ulyana has been so extremely kind and helpful in dealing with my difficult insurance company. She always has a smile and kind words. She goes above and beyond for patients. I’m SO very thankful for all of her help!

They made me feel welcome as soon as I walked in. They went out of their way to help me with my teeth and my family’s. Dr. Haywood is very gentle and very understanding towards adults and kids with fear of the dental office. My daughter and sons love Amanda and they love to get their sugar-free special lolly pops to help fight cavities. They are very good with Invisalign, I just completed my treatment and I have the smile I always wanted. All the staff is very friendly and sweet. Both offices are very nice. Highly recommend them.

I am so happy I selected Dr. Haywood as my new dentist. This is the only dentist I trust. Dr. Haywood and his team are absolutely amazing! Everyone is super friendly, very professional, and really demonstrates how much they care for their patients in everything they do. I finally got a smile I always wanted and it’s been a wonderful experience every step of the way: starting with Invisalign and finishing with veneers. The office is beautiful and elegant with the latest technologies available. I would recommend this dental practice to my family and friends in complete trust that they are going to be comfortable and treated with care.

Very friendly staff and incredibly accommodating. I adopted kittens at the beginning of the pandemic and they loved my retainers, which meant they completely disappeared. Dr. Haywood replaces them quickly and at cost. Thank you!

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 one to two weeks, and you’ll pick up a new set of aligners every six to eight 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.
