What is Invisalign ?

Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that uses a series of custom-made, clear aligners to straighten teeth. These aligners are made from smooth, comfortable plastic and are virtually invisible, making them a popular alternative to traditional metal braces.

Here’s a quick overview of how it works:

1. Initial Consultation: You’ll start with a consultation where Dr. Rani will take a digital scan of your teeth and create a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
2. Custom Aligners: Based on the scan, a series of aligners will be designed specifically for your teeth. Each aligner is slightly different and moves your teeth gradually into the desired position.
3. Wearing Aligners: You’ll wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, then switch to the next set in the series. Aligners should be worn for 20-22 hours a day but are removable for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.
4. Progress Check: You’ll have periodic check-ups, usually every month or two, to ensure the treatment is progressing as planned and to receive your next sets of aligners.
5. Treatment Duration: Treatment typically lasts about a year, but this can vary based on individual needs and the complexity of your case.

Invisalign is effective for a wide range of dental issues, including crooked teeth, gaps, and some bite issues. Many patients start seeing results within as little as six weeks.
