Blog: Dental Exams and Cleanings

The Consultation: This is the most important part of the Invisalign process. Our doctors will talk to you about your smile goals and perform a thorough examination to determine whether Invisalign is the right choice for you.
The Treatment Plan: We develop a personalized treatment plan using 3-D images of your teeth. This tells you how long you can expect your treatment to last and also shows you the exact movement of your teeth throughout the process.
Aligner Creation: The information we gather is sent to an Invisalign lab where a series of clear plastic aligners will be created just for you. You will be instructed to wear your aligners for at least 22 hours a day for the fastest results.
Switching Aligners: Every two or three weeks, you will need to switch your current set of aligners out for the next set as detailed in your treatment plan. With each new set of aligners you use, you will actually be able to see the progress you have made just by looking in the mirror.
