The Invisalign Treatment Process at Grange Green Dental Practice

Step 1: Your Initial Consultation

During your first visit, we'll discuss your orthodontic goals and determine if Invisalign is the right choice for you. We'll take digital scans of your teeth to create a customised treatment plan.

Step 2: Customising Your Aligners

Using advanced 3D imaging technology, we'll design a series of aligners specifically for your teeth. Each aligner will gradually shift your teeth into the desired position.

Step 3: Wearing Your Aligners

You'll wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, only removing them to eat, drink, brush, and floss. It's essential to wear your aligners for 20-22 hours a day for the best results.

Step 4: Regular Check-Ups

You'll visit us every 6-8 weeks to ensure your treatment is progressing as planned. These appointments allow us to make any necessary adjustments and provide you with your next set of aligners.

Step 5: Enjoying Your New Smile

Once your treatment is complete, you'll receive retainers to help maintain your new smile. Regular use of retainers is crucial to prevent your teeth from shifting back to their original position.

Maintaining Your Invisalign Aligners

Cleaning Tips

• Rinse Regularly: Rinse your aligners every night and morning.

• Use a Soft Toothbrush: Gently brush your aligners with a soft toothbrush and clear soap.

• Avoid Hot Water: Hot water can warp the aligners.

Eating and Drinking

• Remove Aligners: Always remove your aligners when eating or drinking anything other than water.

• Brush After Meals: Brush your teeth before putting your aligners back in to avoid trapping food particles.
