Are you looking for a discreet way to straighten your teeth and achieve your dream smile? Invisalign® in Anaheim is the solution! You can say goodbye to traditional metal braces with clear aligners from our skilled Anaheim orthodontist. Instead, say hello to a virtually invisible, comfortable, and convenient orthodontic treatment option.
Invisalign® consists of a series of clear aligners that fit over your teeth. They look similar to teeth whitening trays. The clear aligners gently shift the teeth into their new positions. You’ll change your aligners every one to two weeks to ensure progress.
Invisalign® clear aligners are virtually invisible, making them the ideal option for patients concerned about aesthetics or discretion.
Clear aligners are also removable, so you can enjoy your favorite foods whenever you want. Plus, cleaning your teeth is a breeze! And because they’re removable, you can take them out for special occasions like a date, school dance, work presentation, or interview.
Invisalign® aligners are also more comfortable than traditional metal braces. You don’t have to worry about soft tissue irritation because of rough metal edges.
Finally, your Anaheim orthodontist can successfully treat most malocclusion issues with Invisalign®.
The average timeline for Invisalign® treatment is 12 to 18 months. You’ll notice your teeth shifting within a matter of weeks, though. It’s essential to wear your aligners for at least 22 hours each day to ensure you stay on target with your treatment. Wearing them less than that can result in slower progress and a timeline extension.
You’ll need to visit your orthodontist every six weeks. During these check-ups, your orthodontist will evaluate your oral health and orthodontic progress. If necessary, they’ll make adjustments to your treatment plan and timeline.
You can eat and drink whatever you want. There are no food restrictions with Invisalign®. Simply remove your aligners when you eat and drink to prevent damaging them.
Because clear aligners are removable, you can brush and floss normally. Simply remove your aligners at least twice a day, brush for two minutes each time, and floss at least once a day. Make sure to brush your teeth before returning the aligners after meals and snacking.
How Do I Care for My Clear Aligners?
To clean your aligners, dissolve Invisalign® cleaning crystals in warm water and soak your aligners for approximately three minutes. Rinse the solution off, then gently brush the aligners with a soft-bristled toothbrush and warm water.
Both adults and teens are good potential candidates for Invisalign® in Anaheim. Children aren’t good candidates since their teeth are still developing, and they have mixed dentition. If your child needs orthodontic treatment, your Anaheim orthodontist will provide other options.
Patients with dental implants and bridges might not be the best candidates for Invisalign® treatment. Similarly, patients with complex cases might not be a good fit for clear aligners.
The cost of Invisalign® ranges from $3500 to $8000. Your custom cost estimate includes your retainer and all regular orthodontic check-ups during treatment. Talk to our team about flexible payment plans and outside financing options.
Many insurance companies won’t cover Invisalign®, considering it an elective treatment. However, some will pay between 20% and 80% for patients under the age of 18.
