What to Expect with the Invisalign System
For many adults with orthodontic issues, the prospect of wearing conspicuous and unattractive metal braces for months can be very discouraging. Fortunately, there is a discreet and more convenient way to achieve the same results with the Invisalign system. Invisalign provides you with a nearly invisible way to straighten your teeth without affecting your lifestyle.
Besides the reduced visual impact, Invisalign aligners can be removed temporarily for important events, as well as eating, practicing oral hygiene, or participating in sports. Generally, you only need to wear your Invisalign aligners for at least 22 hours every day to ensure consistent progress towards your goals for straightening your teeth.

What to expect when getting your Invisalign ?
What to expect:
Step 1: An exam in the dental office
When beginning your Invisalign treatment, you will start by getting your teeth examined by your dentist in order to determine whether or not you are a suitable candidate.
Step 2: Dental Records
If your dentist finds you to be a good candidate for Invisalign, they will proceed to take the necessary records, including dental impressions of your teeth, photos of your teeth and face, and x-rays, all of which are sent (together with detailed instructions on how you want your teeth adjusted) to a lab with Invisalign software.
The impressions are scanned to produce a 3D model of your teeth in the computer, which the technicians can use to create the trays which will move the teeth progressively to their intended positions. The software makes it possible to predict how your teeth will change over time once you start using the Invisalign system, and you can even see how they’ll look weeks into, months into, and at the end of your treatment.
Afterwards, the trays are fabricated and sent to your dental office. It takes about 4 weeks from taking the impressions to getting the trays ready.
Step 3: Straightening your Teeth
With Invisalign, you are required to wear a set of aligners (Invisalign trays) for two weeks at a time. Each of these trays is designed so your teeth are slightly straighter than with the previous tray (typically moving 0.1mm per tray). The trays apply pressure on your teeth so that by the end of the two weeks, your teeth will have moved slightly to match the tray. Because of this, you should expect some discomfort for the first few days every time you get a new set of aligners.
Step 4: Post Invisalign
After the completion of your Invisalign treatment, you won’t have to wear aligners any more. However, since there is a natural risk of your teeth reverting to previous alignments, your dentist will likely recommend that you wear a retainer. You can opt for clear plastic retainers that resemble the Invisalign trays, or a fixed (permanent) retainer bonded on the inside of your lower front 6 teeth.
With the removable retainer, you will at first wear the retainer full time for minimum of 6 months (preferably one year) , then only while sleeping.
After your treatment, you may notice slight change to your facial structure. The change is only positive, as your teeth will have adjusted to support your jaw, palate, face, lips, and cheeks in a proper way to give you a straight, healthy smile that enhances and complements your entire face.
Invisalign is a great clear alternative to traditional braces, so come to City Oasis Dental and have your consultation today.
How often will I have appointments with my Invisalign Doctor?
Your Invisalign Doctor will schedule regular appointments, usually about once every four to six weeks. The goal of these visits is to ensure your Invisalign treatment is progressing as planned.
How long is the treatment time with the invisalign system?
On average, orthodontic treatment with the Invisalign system will last from 6 to 18 months. A majority of Invisalign treatment plans last for 12 months. Compared to traditional braces where the treatment time can range from 18 months to 3 years. Your treatment time with the Invisalign system will be determined by your orthodontist based on your specific needs.
Does my invisalign need to be cleaned?
Your orthodontist will recommend that you wear your aligner as much as possible. Keeping the liner in place at all times outside of meals and contact sports means that your teeth can be transformed as quickly as possible. With your liner in almost constant contact with your teeth and gums, you want it to stay clean to maintain your oral hygiene. If food debris or bacteria is allowed to build up in the tray, it may cause tooth decay or staining so it’s important to clean it regularly.
Simply Clean with Water
Taking good care of your Invisalign aligner couldn’t be easier – simply clean the aligner with your toothbrush every time you brush your teeth. Your tray can be cleaned with gentle toothpaste or water and then rinsed afterwards to ensure no debris remains. Avoid whitening toothpaste as they can be slightly abrasive and damage your liner.
Clean After Meals
With the Invisalign clear braces system, you remove your aligner before every meal. This means that you can continue to enjoy your usual diet without having to worry about foods getting stuck in your braces or remembering a range of restrictions over what you can eat. You simply need to clean your teeth after the meal and you can pop the liner straight back in with no fuss.
Treat Your Liner with Care
Your Invisalign liner is specially made to fit the shape of your teeth so it should be easy to remove and replace. Whilst the tray is strong enough to correct the positioning of your teeth to achieve the straight smile you’ve always dreamed of, it can still be damaged if you don’t handle it with care.
To remove your tray for eating or cleaning, pull gently starting at the back of your mouth and working forward. When it’s time to put your tray back into place, gently push it using your fingertips, applying equal pressure to the left and right molars. Never use sharp force or other instruments when handling your aligners.
No disruption to your routine with Invisalign
One of the biggest advantages of Invisalign over traditional braces is that your morning and bedtime routines can continue more or less as before. There is no time-consuming flossing and brushing in between braces and wires – simply take out the aligner, brush and floss as usual, quickly clean the tray and you’re done!

PARTIALLY ANSWERED QUESTIONS
Question 1. Can I just wear my Invisalign at night?
Full Answer Combined with Your Original
You are required to wear a set of aligners (Invisalign trays) for two weeks at a time. Each of these trays is designed so your teeth are slightly straighter than with the previous tray (typically moving 0.1mm per tray). The trays apply pressure on your teeth so that by the end of the two weeks, your teeth will have moved slightly to match the tray. Because of this, you should expect some discomfort for the first few days every time you get a new set of aligners.
It's crucial to understand that wearing Invisalign aligners at night only is ineffective. Your teeth need sustained, gentle pressure throughout the day and night to move properly and permanently. Limiting the wear to nighttime only disrupts this necessary pressure cycle, leading to insufficient results and potentially extending your treatment duration. Therefore, for optimal results, continuous wear of your aligners, as prescribed, is essential to achieving the desired alignment of your teeth.
Question 1 | Is it effective to wear Invisalign aligners only at night?
Answer 1 | No, it is not effective to wear Invisalign aligners only at night as continuous pressure is needed for teeth to move effectively.
Question 2 | Why is continuous pressure needed for Invisalign?
Answer 2 | Continuous pressure is necessary to move the teeth properly and to ensure the changes are permanent.
Question 3 | Can wearing Invisalign aligners part-time still straighten my teeth?
Answer 3 | No, part-time wear does not provide the consistent pressure required for effective teeth straightening.
Question 4 | Is it okay to wear the aligners less than the recommended 20-22 hours a day?
Answer 4 | No, wearing the aligners for less than the recommended 20-22 hours per day can lead to ineffective treatment and prolonged duration.
Question 5 | What happens if you only wear the aligners at night?
Answer 5 | Wearing the aligners only at night will not provide enough time under pressure for the teeth to move correctly, potentially leading to unsatisfactory results.
Wearing Invisalign aligners only at night is not recommended because the treatment requires consistent pressure throughout the day to shift the teeth into their correct positions effectively. If the aligners are worn for less than the advised 20-22 hours per day, the reduced wearing time won't provide the necessary continuous force needed for the teeth to move permanently and correctly. As such, limiting the wear to nighttime only could lead to unsatisfactory results or significantly extend the duration of the treatment, as the teeth will not be receiving the consistent pressure required for optimal movement.

Question 2. Is Invisalign a permanent fix?
Full Answer Combined with Your Original
Invisalign is a great clear alternative to traditional braces, so come to City Oasis Dental and have your consultation today.
After the completion of your Invisalign treatment, the aligners are no longer necessary. However, to ensure that this solution is permanent, it's crucial to follow through with proper retainer use.

Question 2 | What kind of retainers are used after Invisalign treatment?
Answer 2 | Post-treatment, Invisalign Vivera retainers are recommended. These retainers are clear and comfortable, closely resembling the aligners used during the treatment period.
Invisalign can effectively serve as a permanent solution to aligning your teeth if you adhere to the prescribed usage of retainers following your treatment. Specifically, the retainers recommended are the Invisalign Vivera retainers, which are both clear and comfortable. These retainers mirror the comfort and appearance of the Invisalign aligners used during the treatment phase, making them easy for patients to adapt to and wear nightly as advised by their orthodontists to maintain their new smile.

Question 3. Beyond cosmetic benefits, how does Invisalign improve oral health?
Full Answer Combined with Your Original
Invisalign aligners can be removed temporarily for important events, as well as eating, practicing oral hygiene, or participating in sports. Generally, you only need to wear your Invisalign aligners for at least 22 hours every day to ensure consistent progress towards your goals for straightening your teeth. Invisalign treatment not only enhances the function and appearance of your teeth and smile but also significantly benefits your overall oral health.
Key Health Benefits of Invisalign:
- Easier Oral Hygiene: With the ability to remove the aligners, you can thoroughly clean your teeth and gums. This accessibility helps in reducing plaque buildup and decreases the risk of tooth decay and gum disease.
- Reduced Tooth Decay and Gum Disease: Straighter teeth do not harbor as many food particles and are simpler to maintain. This cleanliness helps prevent common dental issues such as cavities and gingivitis.
- Corrects Bite Issues: Invisalign aids in aligning your bite correctly, which can prevent abnormal tooth wear. This not only preserves your tooth enamel but also reduces the risk of fractures and chips in your teeth.
- Potential TMJ Relief: For some patients, correcting jaw alignment diminishes the symptoms of TMJ disorders, providing relief from jaw pain and discomfort.
Additional Benefits:
- Discreet Treatment: The clear aligners allow you to straighten your teeth without other people noticing.
- Dietary Freedom: You can continue enjoying your favorite foods and drinks without the restrictions typical with traditional braces.
- Motivation and Comfort: The comfort and ease of use of Invisalign aligners help stay motivated throughout the duration of your treatment.
After your treatment, you may notice a slight change to your facial structure. The change is only positive, as your teeth will have adjusted to support your jaw, palate, face, lips, and cheeks in a proper way to give you a straight, healthy smile that enhances and complements your entire face.
By choosing Invisalign, you are not only investing in a beautiful smile but also in improved health benefits that contribute to a healthier, more confident you.
Question 1 | How does Invisalign contribute to easier oral hygiene?
Answer 1 | Invisalign helps straighten teeth, which typically makes them easier to clean. Straight teeth have fewer hard-to-reach areas where plaque and food debris can accumulate, thus reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease.
Question 2 | How can Invisalign affect the longevity and durability of teeth?
Answer 2 | Invisalign corrects misaligned bites, which helps in distributing biting forces evenly across all teeth. This uniform distribution of force minimizes excessive stress on individual teeth, thereby reducing the risk of chips, cracks, and uneven wear.
Question 3 | Can Invisalign help with jaw-related issues?
Answer 3 | Yes, by aligning the teeth and correcting bite issues, Invisalign can alleviate stress on the jaw joints. This reduction in stress can help relieve symptoms associated with TMJ disorders, such as jaw pain and discomfort.
Invisalign not only enhances the aesthetics of a smile but also offers significant oral health benefits. By straightening teeth, Invisalign makes daily dental care more effective; straight teeth are simpler to clean, significantly reducing the likelihood of plaque buildup and subsequent tooth decay. Additionally, Invisalign helps correct uneven bites, which distributes chewing forces evenly across all teeth, thus preventing excessive wear and reducing the risk of fractures. This alignment correction can also alleviate symptoms related to TMJ disorders, such as jaw pain and discomfort, by ensuring the jaw is properly aligned, easing strain on the temporomandibular joint. These benefits emphasize how Invisalign is instrumental in improving overall dental health, beyond its cosmetic appeal.
