Welcome to Lakeside Family & Implant Dentistry: Your Destination for Invisalign Treatment
Are you looking for a discreet and effective way to achieve a straighter smile? Look no further than Lakeside Family & Implant Dentistry, your trusted partner in oral health and cosmetic dentistry.
We're excited to introduce you to the world of Invisalign – the modern approach to achieving a beautiful, confident smile without the hassle of traditional braces.
Invisalign is a cutting-edge orthodontic treatment that utilizes clear, removable aligners to gradually shift your teeth into their desired positions. These aligners are custom-made to fit snugly over your teeth, making them virtually invisible to others.
Invisalign offers a comfortable and convenient alternative to traditional braces, allowing you to achieve your dream smile with minimal disruption to your daily life.
Your preferences and individual lifestyle will determine what options are best for you, but Invisalign® offers several noticeable advantages:
However, braces might be more suitable for complex dental issues. Dr. Saluja will help you find the best solution for your orthodontic needs.
Other orthodontic options include:
After treatment, you'll wear retainers to maintain your new smile. These retainers will be worn similarly to the clear aligners but without changing the location of your teeth. The duration for retainer wear varies, but typically they are worn full-time for a few months, then only at night indefinitely. This step is crucial to maintaining the new smile you worked so hard for!
Average treatment is 12 to 18 months, but it varies depending on the complexity of your case. Dr. Saluja can give you a more accurate timeline as he develops your treatment plan.
Some discomfort is normal as teeth move, but generally less than with braces.
It's recommended to remove aligners while eating. Clear aligners are not designed to be used for chewing or biting and may break.
Costs vary; insurance may cover a portion.
It isn’t recommended to move to your next set of aligners earlier than instructed. We know you’re eager to get that new smile, but rushing the process runs the risk of causing permanent damage to your teeth; common issues from rushed treatments are tooth shrinkage, unstable teeth, and even permanent teeth falling out. Keeping with your schedule and regular office visits can prevent these problems from happening to you!
Once your permanent teeth have fully grown in, you should be eligible for Invisalign® treatments. Dr. Saluja will let you know if you’re ready! Invisalign® is a great option for teens and adults.
