Quality Invisalign in Aurora

There are many reasons why people want to straighten their teeth. The most common reasons are: for better appearance, more ease of flossing or brushing, and for better chewing function long term.
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that adults have their teeth evaluated by an orthodontist at least once every 10 years. Many adults are candidates to straighten their teeth, even in late adulthood.
Straightening teeth is a great option for improving the appearance of your smile. Straight teeth are easier to clean and maintain, which is beneficial for both adults and children. For adults, straight teeth are also better for chewing food properly.
Straightening your teeth with clear aligners like Invisalign is a time-tested way of realizing these goals, and may be the best option for you if you’re considering orthodontic treatment. For many, teeth straightening is an investment in their future. The benefits of straightening teeth can extend life and improve quality of life.
One of the most common reasons for wanting straighter teeth is appearance. The improvement in an individual’s appearance can be dramatic. More often than not, people who have straighter teeth are seen as being more attractive, confident, and healthier.
Most adults are candidates to straighten their teeth, even in late adulthood. Traditional braces with brackets and wires are still a good option, but many people want something less noticeable. That’s where clear aligners really shine.

Benefits of Invisalign and Clear Aligners

Invisalign, and many other similar companies, offer an option to straighten teeth with clear tooth trays (aligners) that are barely noticeable. Clear aligners are a great alternative to regular braces and we are happy to be able to offer this to our patients. And the best part is that they’re removable and adjustable!

Invisalign is a great way to get straighter teeth without the use of metal braces. The Invisalign treatment starts with a series of impressions made from mouthwash or pressed against a dental mold. These impressions are then analyzed by an Invisalign specialist who creates a treatment plan that is personalized to the patient’s needs and goals. This plan can include up to 50 different aligners that gradually move teeth into place.

A recent study found that up to 86% of adults with crooked teeth could benefit from Invisalign treatment. Just like traditional braces, this treatment straightens teeth without the need for metal brackets and wires. But unlike traditional braces, this treatment is virtually invisible with the only evidence left behind being straighter teeth.

This revolutionary treatment is offered by most orthodontists and can be tailored to each individual’s needs. Invisalign treatment can straighten your teeth in as little as 6 months!

Invisalign FAQs

How does Invisalign work?
Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, clear aligners that gradually shift your teeth into proper alignment. Each set of trays is worn for about two weeks before progressing to the next.
Treatment time varies depending on your case, but most patients complete Invisalign in 6–18 months. Minor adjustments may take less time, while more complex cases take longer.
Yes. Invisalign can treat many of the same issues as braces, including crowding, gaps, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. Dr. Zhu will determine if Invisalign is the best option for your smile goals.
For the best results, you should wear your aligners 20–22 hours per day, removing them only to eat, drink anything besides water, and brush or floss your teeth.
You may feel mild pressure when starting a new set of aligners, which is a sign your teeth are moving. This typically fades within a day or two.
