Invisalign® Adult
Invisalign for Adults
Nova Orthodontics is the premier provider of Invisalign® for Adults in Mill Creek and Mukilteo.
Invisalign may be the ideal treatment option for adults seeking to improve their smile. At Nova Orthodontics, we use advanced technology and techniques to develop Invisalign treatment programs that discretely correct misalignment or spacing concerns. Invisalign uses clear, nearly invisible aligners that are comfortable to wear.
Adults may need orthodontic treatment for a variety of reasons. Misaligned teeth can create a variety of issues, such as:
- Improper bite alignment
- TMJ problems
- Speech impediments
- Missing or damaged teeth
- Uneven bites and gaps
Orthodontics has also been shown to improve overall dental health by making it easier to brush and floss around crooked or overlapping teeth. Plus, Invisalign can help increase self-esteem through improved appearance, leading to greater social confidence.
Invisalign: A Popular Choice
The Invisalign system is a popular alternative to traditional braces due to many factors, including:
- Discrete: Invisalign aligners are practically invisible, offering a subtle alternative to traditional braces. This discretion is ideal for those who prioritize esthetics and are hesitant about the noticeable appearance of metal braces.
- Enhanced Comfort: Made from medical-grade, clear smooth plastic that is BPA free. Invisalign aligners aim to minimize irritation to the mouth’s delicate tissues, a common concern with metal braces. Their removable nature during meals also eliminates the discomfort of dietary restrictions and chewing with traditional braces.
- Convenience: Invisalign treatment typically requires fewer in-person appointments than traditional braces, often involving regular adjustments and wire changes. This approach saves time and provides a more flexible orthodontic experience.
- Improved Oral Hygiene: With Invisalign, maintaining excellent oral hygiene is effortless as the aligners are removable. This allows for thorough brushing and flossing, simplifying daily oral care routines. In contrast, traditional braces can trap food particles, making cleaning every part of the mouth difficult.
Invisalign: Designed With You In Mind
A consultation for Invisalign treatment at Nova Othodontics begins with our expert orthodontist carefully assessing each patient’s particular needs. First, x-rays and digital images of the mouth, teeth, and jaw are taken. This allows us to build a thorough orthodontic plan that considers the patient’s jaw size, bite alignment, and any other special orthodontic requirements. Our team considers each patient’s lifestyle while developing a tailored treatment plan. From there, we create custom-made, clear aligners that will be used throughout your treatment journey.
Invisalign is ideal for adults who want a discrete and comfortable alternative to correct misalignment or spacing concerns. Furthermore, because Invisalign is removable, it has several advantages, such as easier cleaning and maintenance, no dietary restrictions, no difficulty brushing or flossing and a shorter adjustment time for patients.
FAQs
How long is treatment using Invisalign?
This depends on you… and us. The length of treatment depends on your smile goals and is determined by only you and your orthodontist. Factors that can typically affect treatment time are the severity of issues needing correction and how diligent you are about wearing your aligners.
Does clear aligner therapy work?
Absolutely! We’re here because clear aligner therapy truly works. Our aligners are nearly invisible and crafted from a specialized thermoplastic material designed specifically for the Invisalign treatment plan. We create a tailored plan to meet your individual needs, which is the cornerstone of your treatment. Remember, you are not just investing in Invisalign; you are investing in your orthodontist and our expertise in delivering the results you desire, precisely the way you want them, with excellent cosmetic and functional outcomes.
How does Invisalign feel?
Invisalign looks and feels similar to teeth-whitening trays. They are clear, lightweight and flexible. Aligners are most effective when worn as prescribed. Most people experience mild tenderness during treatment and are pleasantly surprised at how quickly their teeth adapt. Some people experience temporary discomfort for a few days with each new aligner. This is normal and is typically described as a feeling of pressure that disappears quickly. It is also gratifying to patients to feel that Invisalign is working.
Do I have to take impressions to start treatment with Invisalign?
NOPE! At Nova Orthodontics, we invested in the iTero Lumia digital scanning system rather than messy impression material to capture your current smile and begin your smile journey using Invisalign. No more algae goo for you! It’s all 3D camera work now!
How can I begin my treatment with Invisalign?
The first step is to book your free consultation with our team at Nova Orthodontics. During this appointment, we will help customize your smile goals starting with our iTero Lumia scan. Most patients receive their first set of trays within a few weeks.
