The Invisalign Treatment Process

STEP 1
STEP 2

RECORDS

Your dentist will take a series of records, including dental x-rays, 3D scans, and photographs. These records will be used to create a treatment plan and to fabricate your dental implants.

PRE-SURGICAL CONSULT

This appointment is held before the surgery to discuss the risks and benefits of the procedure, as well as the recovery process. You will also have a chance to ask any questions you may have.

STEP 4

SURGERY

This is the procedure where the implants are placed into your jawbone. The surgery typically takes about 2 hours per jaw and is done safely with oral anesthesia. All patients leave with their new temporary teeth on the day of the surgery and will return within 1-2 weeks to have their first post-op visit and receive their fist implant prototype teeth. It is important to remain on a very soft diet after surgery and before receiving your first prototype.

PROTOTYPES

1-2 weeks after your surgery you will return to check your healing and receive your first set of implant prototype teeth that will be attached directly to your implants. We allow up to 3 versions of teeth during the healing process to ensure the dentist and patient is happy with the look and feel. As your implants heal your dentist will create a series of prototypes for your implant bridge. These prototypes will be used to test the fit and function of the bridge before it is permanently placed.

HEALING

The implants will need to heal for 4-6 months before the next step can be taken. Dr. Bally will also provide a night guard to help prevent excess pressure from going to your implants. As you heal you will remain on a soft diet.

PROTOTYPING AND VERIFICATION

Once the implants have healed, your dentist will create a final prototype of your dental bridge. This prototype will be verified to ensure that it is the correct size, shape, and color. Before authorizing the fabrication of your new zirconia implant smile.

MAINTENANCE

Your zirconia implant smile will need to be maintained on a regular basis to ensure that it continues to function properly. This may include cleaning, adjustments, and checkups.

Your First Consultation

During your first consultation, we will address your orthodontic requirements and assess if Invisalign treatment is suitable for you.

Your Custom Treatment Plan

We will utilize a scanner like the iTero® digital scanning system to swiftly generate accurate 3D digital representations of your teeth. Subsequently, we will outline an exact treatment plan that encompasses the precise adjustments your teeth will undergo and the duration of your treatment. Moreover, you will have the opportunity to witness the anticipated movement of your teeth and preview your forthcoming smile.

Your Invisalign Clear Aligners

Your custom-made aligners will be made of Invisalign’s proprietary SmartTrack® material. They’re virtually invisible, so most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them during your teeth straightening.

For optimal results, it is recommended to wear your Invisalign clear aligners for 20 to 22 hours a day. Remember to remove them only when eating, brushing, and flossing.

Your Progress

As you put on each set of aligners, your teeth will gradually and gently move into their proper position. We might suggest that you start using a new set of aligners every week and arrange checkups approximately every six weeks.

Taking Care Of Your New Smile

After finishing your treatment, don't forget to inquire about a Vivera® retainer. These retainers are specially crafted using the advanced technology found in Invisalign clear aligners.
