From Enquiry to Results | What to Expect from Invisalign in Ilford
Invisalign is one of the leading teeth aligning treatments available to patients, becoming increasingly popular thanks to its effectiveness, its nearly visible design, and the convenience of having an aligner that can be removed with ease.
Invisalign is a journey to straighter teeth and a brighter smile, that takes the patient from early consultation through to 5D scans and results mapping, a free teeth whitening, and a long-term retainer to take away with them. The duration of treatment varies from one patient to the next, always running through a series of aligners as the teeth gradually shift and move from one position to the next.
How Long Does Invisalign Take and What Does the Consultation Involve?
The very first step in your Invisalign journey is a consultation with the dentist, during which you can ask questions about the process and understand more about how long your teeth will take to straighten and become more aligned.
5D mapping allows the dentist to show patients how their teeth will move during the treatment process, with the dentist using a mould of the teeth to demonstrate the projected end results. This is particularly beneficial for managing expectations and for helping patients feel more accountable for the success of their Invisalign journey.
Understanding the Benefits of Invisalign for Patients
Of course, it’s not just the results that make Invisalign such a popular option for patients. The fact that the aligners are made from a clear and extra-strong plastic means that even when fitted, Invisalign is not obvious. Adults are particularly drawn to this benefit, making a straighter and brighter smile achievable without affecting their everyday routine.
Aligners can also be removed with ease, during eating, when communicating clearly, and to facilitate high-quality brushing and dental hygiene. While tasks like communicating do become easier as your teeth get used to the position and placement of the aligner, being able to remove the aligners when needed does add a layer of convenience to the process.
Add to that the optional extras available from select Essex dentists, and you’ve found yourself a one-stop ticket to a winning smile.
