When you have a tooth alignment problem, metal braces aren’t the only way to straighten out your smile. A revolutionary treatment called Invisalign can change the positioning of your teeth and close unsightly gaps in about a year’s time. The team at Brilliant Smiles Dental in Peachtree City, GA, offers Invisalign, along with an array of other cosmetic solutions including dental implants, crowns, bonding, and veneers. Read on to learn more!

Invisalign Treatment
Traditionally, orthodontic patients had to have metal brackets cemented to their teeth to get results. There is now a way to invisibly straighten your teeth without the need to wear metal appliances for up to three years. Invisalign is a proprietary orthodontic treatment that has grown exponentially in popularity with patients due to its convenience and promise of discretion, a point made possible by how the treatment uses clear, flexible tooth-shaped trays instead of brackets. It is most commonly recommended for adult patients, but a special option for older teens is also available. As you wear the plastic aligning trays, gentle forces move the teeth until they are in the right position.

How Invisalign Improves Your Smile
Many patients consider an aesthetically pleasing smile to be one that is free from gaps and spaces. Invisalign can both close gaps between teeth as well as loosen up crowding and put errant, protruding teeth back in line. In some cases, additional treatments like crowns, veneers, or dental implants may be used along with this orthodontic solution to perfect the smile.

The Invisalign Process
The very first step to getting Invisalign is for your Peachtree City dentist to take digital impressions of your smile as it is now. Your dentist will upload these impressions so that a dental technician can create your custom trays. At the next appointment, you will receive the first tray and wear it for a couple of weeks or as prescribed. You’ll then visit the dentist’s office at planned intervals so that your progress can be monitored and you can obtain a new aligning tray. At the end of the treatment period, your last tray becomes your permanent retainer—it will help maintain the new position of your teeth.

Starting Treatment
The sooner you start treatment for alignment issues, the sooner you’ll be proud to show off your smile. In addition to Invisalign, you can consult your dentist about dental implants, crowns, and other cosmetic solutions.
