Your consultation appointment will include dental X-rays, a scan of your teeth, and possibly dental impressions. Your dentist will then submit your case to Invisalign, where they will fabricate your set of clear aligners through computer technology. These aligners will need to be worn 22-24 hours a day. Through slow pressure, the aligners will move your teeth in position.
The patient will wear the aligner for two weeks. After that period, the teeth will move so that the aligner will no longer apply pressure to the teeth. The patient will then wear the next set of aligners. You will have an appointment every six weeks to have a dental check-up and receive your next set of aligners.
