Carindale Invisalign Dentist

Carindale Invisalign Dentist

Metal dental braces have been in use for many years across the globe. Invisalign is an attractive alternative to traditional dental braces. Invisalign uses clear mouth trays. These trays are removable. The fact that they are removable is their advantage to traditional metal braces.

You can remove Invisalign trays before eating. You can remove them for an important meeting, etc. Dentist Carindale believes that this is the reason why Invisalign is so popular between professional adults. If you need to brush or floss, or if you need to drink something, you can remove these trays relatively easily and replace them when done.

Starting the Invisalign

To start the Invisalign, you can search for an Invisalign-Certified Dentist. You make the appointment for initial consultation to see if Invisalign is suitable for your conditions. If all is good to go, the dentist takes an impression of your teeth. Both the lower jaw and the upper jaw. These impressions (or molds) use used by the lab to build your first Invisalign dental trays.

Once the trays are made satisfactory and delivered to your dentist, you need another dental appointment to try them on. If the dentist was happy with the lab work, you can start wearing your trays. You’ll receive containers for the trays as well.

Invisalign dentists normally provide you with:

  • An Invisalign tray for the lower jaw
  • An Invisalign tray for the upper jaw
  • Containers (possibly two)
  • Aligner chewies

Invisalign Aligner Chewies

Your dentist at some point will provide you with Invisalign aligner chewies. They are the same size as standard cotton rolls. Chewies are soft and spongy. When you get a new tray, typically you get these chewies as well. The function of the chewies is to help your teeth shift faster into desired location.

Invisalign Aligner Chewies

To use your chewies simply, put your new set of aligners on, put the chewies between your teeth and bite down normally. You can bite on the chewie short-ways or longways. It is recommended to use your chewies before bed. Brush and floss your teeth and then bite on your aligners using the chewies to make sure that the aligners are sitting tight on your teeth before going to sleep.

Invisalign Trays at Work

Approximately every two weeks, you switch your old trays with the new trays. Put the old trays in the red containers and keep the new rays in the Green containers when you are not wearing them. The success of the Invisalign is largely depending on your commitment to these trays. If you skip wearing them, the length of the treatment increases.

Your dentist may ask you to visit the dental clinic every six month so that the progress in the movement of the teeth can be monitored.

Invisalign Completion

Once the Invisalign treatment is complete, your dentist may provide you with retainers. The function of the retainers is to maintain the results and your smile in the desired form.

Invisalign Cost

To get a price for Invisalign, consult with your dentist because many factors are involved and the price ranges. In general, Invisalign can cost higher than the traditional Braces. You may also be interested to check with your health insurance cover to see how much of the treatment is covered by the health fund. Most likely the percentage of cover is the same between traditional braces and Invisalign but it is a good idea to check with insurance provider.
