The Invisalign system in Toms River, New Jersey, is a worthwhile alternative for image-conscious individuals who want a straight smile with minimal fuss. Because they’re invisible when worn, Invisalign aligners at Grand Dental Arts have become popular for patients with crooked teeth, seeking cosmetically-oriented orthodontic treatment. 

Orthodontic issues that can be resolved with Invisalign

Today, there is no case too complex for Invisalign. Under the right doctor, Invisalign is just as capable as traditional braces. The success of Invisalign depends on the doctor’s skills and experience, not just the Invisalign technology.  

Drs. Williamson and Marya Ijaz will recommend Invisalign to resolve the dental issues below. 

• Crooked teeth
• Overbite
• Crossbite
• Overcrowding
• Gaps between teeth
• Underbite
• Open bite 

Treating orthodontic issues with Invisalign takes an average of 4-12 months, although treatment time depends on the complexity of your case. Many patients start seeing results after a few weeks!

What to expect from Invisalign treatment

After your Invisalign consultation, we’ll use an intraoral camera to take digital scans of your teeth to create a precise 3D rendering of your smile. Using the advanced Invisalign smile simulator, you can preview your final smile and how long it will take. Previewing your smile gives you the confidence to proceed with the treatment.

Invisalign treatment uses a series of aligners, with many patients requiring about 18-30 trays to complete treatment. These trays are worn in sequence. Each tray is used for 7-10 days before moving to the next in series. Furthermore, the trays must be worn for 22 hours daily to achieve your orthodontic goals within the predicted timeline. 

Only remove your aligners when eating or cleaning your teeth. Drinking water with your aligners is fine, but you should remove them before eating/drinking other foods or drinks to avoid staining them. 

What changes should I expect during treatment?

New trays are tight and may cause some discomfort in the first few days as your teeth acclimatize to new positions. You may also speak with a lisp as your mouth adapts to your aligners. The good news is that these minor discomforts only last a few days. What’s more, the discomfort is just a mere inconvenience because Invisalign has many benefits, including convenience, comfort, speed, and discreetness.
