Invisalign Edmonton

Woman sitting on pillow holding coffee cup | Dentist Edmonton At Orchards Dental in South Edmonton, we see many adult patients who want to know how to correct their crooked teeth. Many of these patients would also like an option other than the traditional metal brackets and wires!

Our South Edmonton office offers orthodontic treatment with Invisalign Edmonton, a system that uses a series of clear, plastic aligners rather than brackets and wires. Invisalign can correct a range of common alignment concerns, and Dr. Dennis George Anithottam can let you know whether you are a good candidate. Invisalign isn't just for adults, either. Teenagers, who are often sensitive about their appearance, can also use Invisalign to achieve proper tooth alignment.

What Makes Invisalign Different?

For many adults, their image is also their livelihood. Invisalign helps you keep your mature, professional image while you correct dental misalignments. The thin, translucent aligners fit into place over your teeth and are worn throughout the day. While the aligners are in place, they are very difficult to see – even from up close! Most people will never notice that you are wearing them.

Because Invisalign is meant to be removed for eating and hygiene, you don’t have to deal with the limitations that traditional braces can impose. Your diet won’t be limited, so you can enjoy all your favorite foods (just be sure to brush your teeth before replacing your aligners so sugars and bacteria aren’t trapped beneath them!). When cleaning your teeth, you don’t have to work around brackets and attempt to weave dental floss between your wires. Simply brush and floss as directed by our staff and clean your aligners daily according to the provided instructions. Orchards Dental is the number one choice to receive Invisalign in South Edmonton.

How Does Invisalign Work?

Woman holding clear aligner | Edmonton AB Invisalign Dr. Dennis George Anithottam will plan your entire treatment from beginning to end and send this plan, along with digital impressions of your teeth, to the Invisalign lab, where your aligners will be crafted. Each set of aligners is intended to be worn for approximately two weeks before you switch to the next set.

When you first place a new set of aligners on your teeth, they will feel like they don’t fit quite right. This is normal! The pressure from the aligners will guide your teeth into their new position. By the time you are ready to switch to the next set, your aligners will feel like they fit perfectly. This is exciting because you can actually see and feel the progress as it happens!

Continue to see Dr. Dennis George Anithottam throughout your treatment so that he can keep an eye on your progress and make sure that everything is going according to plan. The aligners are meant to be worn for 22 hours a day, and taking them out too frequently could lead to longer treatment. If you have any concerns or a special event coming up when you wouldn’t want to wear your aligners, let us know so that we can account for this in your treatment plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Invisalign work?

The Invisalign treatment system involves a series of clear aligners that sequentially move your teeth to proper alignment and straighten your teeth. Each successive aligner is slightly different from the one before and is precisely shaped to be slightly closer to your ideal smile.

Invisalign Process

You are given a series of these aligners and approximately every two weeks you switch to a new aligner. Each aligner places a little bit of force on your teeth in a precise and controlled way to move them into correct alignment. As treatment progresses, you will notice your teeth moving closer and closer to the smile that you desire.

What are the advantages of Invisalign?

There are many advantages to Invisalign. Because the Invisalign aligners are clear, many people will not be able to tell that you are straightening your teeth. The forces placed on your teeth are light, meaning there is usually not much discomfort with treatment. The forces placed on your teeth are also precise, so over the course of treatment, your teeth will move into their planned positions, resulting in the smile that you want.

Clear Aligners

The aligners may be removed when you are eating, making them more comfortable compared to traditional metal braces, as you will not have problems with food getting stuck between brackets since there are no metal brackets involved with Invisalign. You are also able to take off the aligners for oral hygiene so you can brush and floss just like normal. For minor movements, or if you only have mild crowding or spacing, you may be able to finish treatment in just under two months. At Orchards Dental, we offer complimentary Invisalign consultations. Give us a call today, we’d love to help design your smile!

Is Invisalign painful?

What you need to know about Invisalign

With Invisalign, you are given a series of clear aligners that move the teeth over time. You switch to a new clear aligner approximately every two weeks. Every time you switch to a new aligner, you will feel some pressure on some of the teeth and the teeth may feel slightly tender for the first few days, but the tenderness goes away quite quickly. Most people would say that Invisalign is not painful, but it does cause slight tenderness of the teeth initially.

Is it possible to straighten my teeth without braces?

Yes! With Invisalign technology, it is possible to straighten your teeth without wearing braces. Invisalign is a system of clear aligners that fit comfortably over your teeth and move your teeth into alignment. Because the aligners are clear, most people probably won’t even know you are straightening your teeth. The aligners can be easily taken off when necessary, such as when you are eating, so they do not interfere with your day to day activities.

How Invisalign Can Help

Invisalign aligners are able to treat a wide range of crowded and misaligned teeth. For people with minor misalignment, treatment can be quite quick, and take only a few months. For more complicated cases, treatment can often be completed in a year or two, which is about the same time frame normally needed for tooth alignment with braces.

Call us today for a consultation and we will help you determine if Invisalign is a good option for you!
