Invisalign
Do you want to straighten your crooked teeth to achieve a great new smile but are scared by the thought of wearing traditional braces? One of the most popular orthodontic options these days, Invisalign, is a great alternative to traditional metal braces.
To gently align the teeth to their intended position precisely, Invisalign uses a series of transparent, removable aligners designed by 3D computer imaging technology and composed of medical-grade polymer. Soos Creek Dental in Covington, WA has skilled dentists who can treat patients with Invisalign.
What is Invisalign? Covington Dentist
Invisalign is the most recent procedure that is a braces alternative designed to correct crooked or misaligned teeth. These braces, also known as clear aligners, are simple to wear and care for.
It is now a popular treatment option for teens who want their teeth to be straight and beautiful. Unlike traditional braces, the Invisalign procedure is relatively straightforward and effective.
Invisalign is a transparent, removable tooth-straightening solution that produces lasting results. Every two weeks a new brace is fitted, moving your teeth closer and closer to the desired position over time.
Benefits of InvisalignÂ
- Invisalign fixes crowded teeth and allow them to fit properly in the mouth.
- It aids in the reduction of tooth gaps.
- The treatment aids in the resolution of bite disorders such as crossbite, underbite, and overbite.
- It improves a person's look by correcting dental abnormalities.
- While eating, the patient can remove the Invisalign aligner.
What Is the Treatment Procedure for Invisalign?
After analyzing and diagnosing the dental condition, the dentist formulates a complete treatment plan for the patient. Using a digital imaging device, the dentist takes an impression and photographs of the teeth. It is then delivered to the laboratory to be used as the basis for manufacturing the aligners.
The dentist will give the patient the Invisalign at the second session. The dentist ensures that the custom-made aligner is appropriately fitted to the teeth. It applies gentle pressure to the teeth, pushing them into the proper position. To achieve optimal tooth alignment, the patient must change to a new set of Invisalign aligners every two weeks.
Aftercare of Invisalign
Because Invisalign is made of thin plastic, it is not visible in your teeth. However, it is critical to thoroughly clean those trays every morning and night after brushing your teeth. They should also be cleaned properly every time you take them out of your mouth throughout the day. It will kill any microorganisms that have accumulated while wearing them. Also, when not in use, soak it in dental cleaners and have a basic checkup done regularly.
Why Choose Invisalign over Metal Braces?

An Invisalign brace is fitted over your teeth and can be removed for eating, drinking, brushing, flossing, and allowing your natural smile to shine unhindered on special occasions like prom night or your wedding day.
