Invisalign: is it for everyone? Irvine Orthodontics explain...

Part of what makes Invisalign really "work" is that the treatment is customizable for so many different types of mouths. To find out if you are the right candidate for Invisalign treatment, the first thing our staff at Irvine Orthodontics does is take an impression of your teeth as they are now and digitize it. Using special software, we look at the current positioning of your teeth and compare it to the way your teeth should look.

Next, we use special software to map out the exact path your teeth will take from the beginning of your treatment to the end. Based on the results, a set of custom aligners are created just for your teeth. Throughout the course of treatment, you will be required to wear these clear, removable aligners one at a time; each one moving your teeth closer and closer to their final, perfectly aligned position. The best thing about it all? Nobody around you will even know you are wearing braces!

Drs. Claro and Ghafouri are certified Invisalign providers. If you have questions about Invisalign, or would like to find out if you are a candidate for Invisalign treatment, please give us a call.
