Invisalign Clear Aligners Hallandale Beach
In Hallandale Beach the best way to straighten teeth is with Invisalign clear aligners. At Rozman Orthodontics we now use these clear, custom made tools to straighten teeth. Patients are always amazed at how well these almost invisible aligners can treat a wide range of orthodontic problems while looking like they did when they first got them.
Invisalign clear aligners work by digitally planning each step and shifting teeth very precisely. Each aligner applies controlled pressure to certain teeth which eventually moves them into place. The treatment plan tells you exactly what your teeth will do from start to finish. This comprehensive approach guarantees consistent results and allows us to show you what to expect before treatment even begins.
You need to have detailed digital impressions of where your teeth are today to start your Invisalign journey. Advanced scanner technology gathers thousands of data points to create a very accurate 3D image of your mouth. This digital accuracy eliminates the discomfort of traditional impression materials and makes the process of making aligners more precise. It only takes a few minutes and gives you immediate results for treatment planning.
Following the wearing schedule is a big part of getting good results with Invisalign clear aligners. We recommend you only take your aligners out to eat, drink anything other than water or brush your teeth. You should wear them for 22 to 23 hours a day. This consistent wear ensures your teeth move on schedule and stays on track.
Patients who go from thinking about traditional braces to Invisalign treatment are more comfortable every day than they thought they would be. Unlike metal brackets and wires the smooth plastic doesn’t hurt the mouth. You may feel some pressure when you first start wearing a new set of aligners. But this usually goes away within a day or two as your teeth get used to being in a new position.
People who are active and work like Invisalign clear aligners because they fit their lifestyle. You don’t have to follow any special diets during treatment because you can eat with your aligners in. You can still eat corn on the cob, sticky candies, nuts and other things that are hard for people with traditional braces to eat. You can maintain your normal eating habits and social dining situations because of this freedom. Cleaning is easy and works well during Invisalign treatment. When you take off the aligners it’s easy to brush and floss like you normally would without having to work around fixed orthodontic hardware. We recommend washing the aligners with warm water and mild soap to keep them clean. If you take care of them they won’t change color or smell bad and while you wear them they are almost invisible.
In work situations the fact that Invisalign treatment is private is a big plus. You don’t have to worry about how obvious orthodontic equipment can ruin your professional image during client meetings, company presentations or networking events. Many patients say they feel better about going to work when they know their smile improvement will be kept secret the whole time.
Treatment time depends on how complex the case is and how well the patient follows directions. It can take as little as 6 months to fix small gaps but it can take up to 24 months to change the way your bite works. We can monitor how your teeth are moving and give you your next set of aligners every 6 to 10 weeks at regular progress sessions. These appointments are usually shorter than regular orthodontic adjustments.
Teenagers like Invisalign because it doesn’t affect how they look or how they interact with others. School pictures, sports games and social events are all fun without the self consciousness that comes with traditional braces. But you have to be grown and responsible enough to wear aligners all the time and take good care of them if you want to be successful.
More insurance companies are paying for Invisalign clear aligners now that more doctors think they are part of orthodontic care. Many programs now offer the same benefits for clear aligners as they do for traditional braces. With our flexible payment options families in Hallandale Beach can also afford treatment and get the benefits of this technology.
