How Does Invisalign Work?: 3 Small Steps. 1 Big, Happy Smile

Step 1: Free Consultation

This consultation is the first step to your new smile. We’ll assess your oral health and take advanced digital impressions of your bite. These impressions are used to create your aligners. Once we receive your first set, you’ll come in for a fitting. If we need to make any adjustments, we’ll do that, but if everything fits and feels great, it’s time to start wearing your aligners.

Step 2: Wear Your Aligners

Each day, you should wear your aligners for the instructed time. Only remove them when eating, drinking, or cleaning them unless otherwise instructed by your dentist. Keep up with your aligner schedule, and change them only as outlined in your treatment plan. Be sure to keep up your daily oral hygiene at home and visit us for regular checkups and progress reports.

Step 3: Retain Your New Smile

Once you’ve finished the last set of aligners, we’ll take new impressions of your teeth and set you up with custom retainers. These nighttime accessories keep your smile in its newly aligned position. Failure to properly use your retainers could cause your smile to slowly move back to its pre-treatment position. If you’ve got any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to call River City Dental! You can count on us for the care and guidance you need!
