The Clear Aligner Treatment Process
Here’s what you can expect if you are a candidate for Invisalign:
- Your Aston, PA, dentist will take digital scans and x-rays and send them to the Invisalign lab, where they will create your customized aligners.
- Once they’re ready, you will visit your dentist to have your first set of aligners checked for a proper fit. You will wear them for 22 hours each day, removing them only to brush, floss, and eat. Your dentist will tell you when to switch to a new set of aligners.
- Every few weeks, you will visit your dentist so they can check your progress.
- Once your treatment is complete, you must wear a retainer to keep your keep from shifting back into their original position.
