Saskatoon - What is Invisalign?

• Invisalign is the invisible way to straighten your teeth without braces.
  

• Invisalign uses a series of clear removable aligners (pictured to the left) to straighten your teeth without metal wires or brackets.

• Invisalign has been proven effective in clinical research and in orthodontic practices nationwide.

How Does Invisalign Work?

• You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.

• As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move - little by little, week by week - until they have straightened to the final position your orthodontist has prescribed.

• You'll visit your orthodontist about once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.

• Total treatment time averages 9-15 months and the average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but both will vary from case to case.

• Removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment, plus brushing and flossing are no problem.

• Comfortable, because it has no metal to cause mouth abrasions during treatment. And no metal and wires usually means you spend less time in your doctor's office getting adjustments.
