Invisalign® in 3 simple steps https://www.nationaldentalcare.com.au/invisalign

Step 1: Invisalign Consultation

Our experienced cosmetic dentists are here to help you achieve your dream smile with Invisalign treatment. During your consultation, they'll take the time to understand your goals and carefully observe how you smile, speak, and bite to assess if Invisalign is the right fit for you. This is an opportunity for you to discuss your smile goals and any specific requirements.

Working together, they'll create a personalised treatment plan that's exclusively designed for you, ensuring you receive the best possible results.

Step 2: 3D Scanning & Imaging

After confirming your suitability for Invisalign treatment, your dentist will conduct detailed 3D scans of your teeth using an Itero or digital scanner.

These scans are used to design and create custom aligners, bringing you closer to achieving your desired straight smile. Using our advanced state-of-the-art technology, we provide a preview of your predicted result; allowing you to suggest any desired changes.

Step 3: Wearing Your Aligners

Once your custom aligners from Invisalign are ready, you can begin your treatment! Your Dentist may need to put some small tooth-coloured blobs on your teeth called “attachments” to help move the teeth. They are easily removed once treatment is complete. Ask your Dentist if these will be necessary for your treatment.

Sometimes we may also need to make some space between your teeth to give them room to fit, this is called “interproximal reduction” or IPR, this process is painless and doesn’t damage the teeth.

We'll provide you with your initial set of aligners and schedule regular check-ups every 6-8 weeks throughout your treatment where we'll monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments. The total duration of treatment varies depending on individual cases, but on average, Invisalign treatment typically lasts between 12 to 18 months.

Your dentist is an expert on healthy teeth and gums, but there’s more to your oral health than just these aspects.

One vital part of your oral health is your temporomandibular joints (TMJ), which are the joints on each side of your face that allow you to open and close your mouth. When everything is in order, you can open your mouth to chew, speak, and smile with ease, but if something is misplaced, it can make these actions difficult or painful.

Did you know that dental implants are a great solution for missing teeth?

If you permanently lose a tooth, it can cause further deterioration of your oral health. For example, tooth loss leads to loss of bone in the jaw, which may cause the face to look sunken. Additionally, getting a dental implant replacement will help you to continue eating as per normal, and it will fill any gaps in your smile. https://bddy.me/3JffrBd
