Dental misalignments can be uncomfortable and make people nervous about showing off their smiles, and they can also lead to a host of oral health issues like injuries, infections, and jaw strain. Fortunately, Invisalign is a discreet and effective way to straighten out mild to moderate misalignments using removable clear aligners that are virtually invisible when worn. Here’s a quick guide to how Invisalign works and how it can help from the team at Frandsen Dental of Orem, but please feel free to schedule a consultation if you’d like to know more.

How Invisalign Works

Lady smiles

Invisalign can realign a smile using a personalized sequence of customized clear aligners based on a digital three-dimensional map of the patient’s teeth. The patient must wear each set of aligners for at least twenty hours a day for about two weeks before switching to the next set in their sequence. Most Invisalign patients can complete their treatments in just twelve to eighteen months, which is significantly less time than is usually required for traditional braces.

Who Invisalign Can Help

Invisalign can be a fantastic solution for mild to moderate misalignments. This treatment can use comfortable and inconspicuous clear aligners to address:

Crowded Teeth

Teeth that are positioned too close together can be difficult to clean, which sets them up for cavities and gum disease. Invisalign trays can gently guide a patient’s smile into a more even alignment that makes it easier to clean and more difficult to injure.

Gaps Between Teeth

Large gaps between teeth can leave the gums vulnerable to injury and make it easier to accumulate plaque and food debris. Invisalign can shift a patient’s teeth so they sit closer together, providing optimal protection for the gums while reducing the likelihood of injuries and infections.

Bite Alignment

Overbites, underbites, crossbites, and open bites can make it difficult to be proud of your smile and leave you vulnerable to injuries and oral infections. Invisalign can resolve mild to moderate misalignments so the patient can enjoy a prettier grin and better oral health.
