Invisalign Aligners In Edmonton

An innovative orthodontic treatment that uses clear aligners to gradually move teeth into their most ideal position, Invisalign is a virtually invisible alternative to traditional metal braces that enables patients to straighten their teeth discreetly.

At Twin Dental in Edmonton, we’ve seen the transformative effects of this orthodontic system time and time again, and we’d love to discuss whether it’s an option for you!

How does Invisalign work?

Aligners are custom-made for each patient and over a series of months, they gradually move teeth into their ideal positions. You will need to wear each aligner for approximately two weeks before switching to the next one in the series. And while the treatment can often take between 10-18 months, timing varies depending on your unique needs.

How does Invisalign work?

Following a thorough examination and evaluation of your smile, our team will take precise measurements using 3-D imaging technology to map out a customized treatment plan to move your teeth into their ideal positions. A series of clear aligners that are designed to fit over your teeth like a mouthguard will be created, with each aligner being slightly different from the last.

The aligners must be worn for 20-22 hours every day, being removed only for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.

What are the benefits of Invisalign?

Invisalign can be a great option for people who want straighter teeth without having to deal with the hassle of metal braces. It can also be more comfortable than traditional braces since there aren't wires or brackets to cause discomfort. In addition, because aligners are removable, patients can take them out when eating and cleaning their teeth, which makes it much easier to maintain good oral hygiene.

Who is a candidate for Invisalign?

Invisalign can be suitable for both adults and teenagers who have mild to moderate tooth misalignment and bite issues. And while it can help correct crowding, spacing, crossbites, overbites, and underbites, patients with more severe cases may require traditional braces or other orthodontic treatments.
