Danbury Invisalign

Straightening Teeth Since 1991

The convenience and ease of use of Invisalign have made it the top choice for straightening teeth for many of our patients. Because Invisalign offers you comfort and virtual invisibility during treatment, you can confidentially go about your day without feeling insecure when you’re smiling and talking. Invisalign uses a series of clear aligners that are custom molded to fit you, which will gradually reposition your teeth into a smile you'll be proud to show off.

How Does Invisalign Work?

Dr. Marks will utilize 3D computer imaging technology to demonstrate the complete treatment plan, from the initial position to the final desired position. The imaging technology is then used to design an individualized series of custom-made aligners. Patients can expect to wear their aligners for about two weeks while the teeth move incrementally. After this, the current aligner is replaced with the next one until the final position is achieved.

A few important things to note about Invisalign:

• Each time you progress to a new aligner, there may be some temporary discomfort while your teeth adjust to their new position. This is completely normal and is a good sign treatment is working.
• It's recommended that you wear your aligners full-time, day and night, except to eat and brush and floss your teeth. Invisalign only works while you're actually wearing the aligners.
• Speech may be affected in some patients, but most adjust in a short period of time to the feeling and do not have permanent changes in their speech.

How Much Does It Cost?

Cost is always a concern, and only your dentist can determine the price of treatment. Typically, costs are in the same range as ordinary metal braces, which are $4,800 to $6,800 or more, depending on the requirements of your case. Additionally, any insurance plan that covers orthodontics should include Invisalign as well.

How Long Will It Take For Invisalign To Straighten My Teeth?

An Invisalign treatment can potentially take anywhere between 6 to 18 months to straighten your teeth. However, there are a number of factors that can affect your results:

• Maintaining good oral hygiene
• Tooth alignment
• Crowded teeth
• Severity of gaps between teeth
• The complexity of the case

Is Invisalign for Me?

Invisalign can be used to treat a vast majority of common problems for both adults and teens. Whether your smile needs minor improvements or more extensive adjustments, Invisalign can certainly help. It's successful in treating overly crowded or widely spaced teeth, and it can relieve more complex issues, including overbites, underbites, and even cross-bites.
