    steps to build your dream smile

    How Does Invisalign Treatment Work?

    The Invisalign treatment process involves several steps, from the initial consultation to the progress monitoring.

    1

    Initial Consultation

    You meet with a dentist or orthodontist experienced in Invisalign. They assess your dental condition, discuss your goals, and determine if Invisalign is suitable for you.

    2

    Digital Scanning or Impressions

    Detailed digital scans or traditional impressions of your teeth are taken to create a 3D image of your mouth. This serves as the basis for planning your treatment.

    3

    Customized Treatment Plan

    Using the 3D image, your dentist maps out a precise treatment plan, showing the expected movement of your teeth and the stages involved in achieving your desired outcome.

    4

    Aligner Fabrication

    Using the treatment plan, a series of custom-made aligners is produced. Each aligner is designed to exert gentle pressure on specific teeth, gradually shifting them into proper alignment.

    5

    Fitting the Aligners

    Once the aligners are ready, you receive your first set and instructions on how to wear and care for them. You’ll typically wear each aligner for about two weeks before progressing to the next in the series.

    6

    Progress Monitoring

    Every few weeks, you have check-up appointments with your dentist. They assess your progress, ensure the aligners fit properly, and provide you with the next set of aligners.

    7

    Compliance and Maintenance

    To ensure effective results, it’s important to wear the aligners for 20 to 22 hours per day, removing them only for eating, drinking (except for water), brushing, and flossing. Regular oral hygiene practices should be maintained throughout the treatment.

    8

    Treatment Completion

    After completing the prescribed series of aligners, you reach the end of your treatment. However, to maintain the newly aligned teeth, your dentist may recommend the use of retainers.
    We'll start by discussing your dental health history and conducting a thorough examination of your gums and jawbone.
    We'll explain the need for ridge augmentation, which is often recommended when a tooth extraction has resulted in bone loss or when preparing for a dental implant.

    It’s hard to beat the dentist I had growing up which created a positive impression of dentists for me — but West Lakes I’m Chaska has done it! Everyone I’ve worked with is thorough, efficient, and super nice. Also, Colleen is fantastic. She goes the extra mile when dealing with insurance, she provides estimates before services are performed, and she has fit me into the schedule last minute.
