Do you have crooked or misaligned teeth? If you dream of having a straight, perfect smile but don't want to deal with chunky metal braces, Afton Dental is here to help. We are pleased to offer a transformative solution: Invisalign. The world's leading aligner system, brought to you by Align Technology, delivers attractive, healthy smiles that will last for many years to come! 

What Is Invisalign?

Invisalign is a revolutionary solution for misaligned teeth that has delivered millions of beautiful, satisfied smiles worldwide. Rather than metal brackets and wires, Invisalign involves the use of clear, plastic aligners that look like super thin mouthguards. Your aligners are created from scans of your mouth and designed to slowly move your teeth to their perfect position. You'll be amazed at your stunning smile transformation. 

How Does Invisalign Work?

Invisalign aligners place pressure on your teeth to gradually move them to the desired position. You'll wear your near-invisible trays for at least 20-22 hours daily to ensure your treatment stays on track. You'll switch to a new set of aligners every two weeks, following your custom treatment plan. Each aligner set differs slightly from the previous one, applying precise pressure to your teeth to move them into alignment. Invisalign treatment typically lasts 12-18 months.

What Are the Benefits of Invisalign?

Invisalign is a game changer in correcting misaligned teeth, offering numerous benefits, including the following:

 

  • Virtually Invisible: Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign's clear aligners are nearly invisible. That means you can smile without anyone even noticing you are wearing them.
  • Removable: You can take Invisalign out when you eat or brush your teeth, unlike braces that are fixed to your teeth. Just remember to wear them for 20-22 hours a day for the best results.
  • Comfortable: Your aligners are made of a smooth, BPA-free material that fits snugly over your teeth. The highly effective orthodontics solution does not contain metal brackets or wires that can poke or scratch the inside of your mouth. 
  • Customized for You: Each Invisalign treatment is unique and fully customized to your needs. Using innovative technology, our team at Afton Dental can plan how your teeth will move over time. You'll even get to see a digital preview of your future smile!

How to Take Care of Your Invisalign Aligners?

Just like anything valuable, you'll want to take good care of your Invisalign aligners. Make sure to clean them daily using a soft-bristled brush and a small amount of toothpaste to keep them clean and fresh. When you take your aligners out of your mouth, like when eating, place them in their storage case to keep them clean and free of damage.
