Why choose Invisalign® clear aligners?
AN ALTERNATIVE TO TRADITIONAL METAL BRACES
Invisalign Clear Aligners provide a discreet, convenient alternative to traditional metal braces. This innovative orthodontic treatment straightens your teeth without the noticeable appearance of braces, offering a more aesthetically pleasing option. Invisalign aligners are designed to be not only less visible but also more comfortable, with treatment times that can often be shorter compared to traditional methods.
CUSTOM-FITTED TO MAXIMIZE COMFORT AND RESULTS
Made from BPA-free plastic, Invisalign Clear Aligners are custom-designed to fit your teeth precisely. These aligners are effective in treating a wide range of orthodontic concerns, including overcrowded teeth, gaps, overbite, underbite, open bite, and crossbite. The aligners gradually shift your teeth into the desired position, giving you a healthier, more confident smile.
Process for Invisalign® Treatment
CONSULTATION AND TREATMENT PLANNING
Similar to traditional braces, the journey to achieving your ideal smile with Invisalign® Clear Aligners begins with a comprehensive consultation with the dentist. During this consultation, Dr. Gordon will evaluate your specific needs to determine if clear aligners are the best solution for you. Using advanced diagnostic tools, including an examination, x-rays, photographs, and a 3D scan of your teeth, we will create a customized treatment plan tailored to your unique smile goals. An estimated timeline for treatment is provided, along with a clear understanding of how Invisalign will help achieve the desired results.
STARTING THE TREATMENT
Once a treatment plan is finalized, your custom aligner trays will be fabricated in the lab. Afterward, you’ll return to Hygge Laser Dentistry to pick up your aligners. In some cases, Dr. Gordon may place small, clear attachments on your teeth to help the aligners stay securely in place and enhance their effectiveness.
MAINTAINING TREATMENT AND ACHIEVING RESULTS
A follow-up appointment will be scheduled several weeks after the initial treatment begins. This visit allows your Seattle dentist, Dr. EmmaLeigh Gordon, to monitor progress and ensure a proper fit. As treatment progresses, follow-up visits will become less frequent. Patients begin to notice gradual improvements in alignment as they progress through each set of aligners.
Benefits of Invisalign®
THE ADVANTAGES OF CLEAR ALIGNERS
Clear aligners from Hygge Laser Dentistry in Seattle offer several compelling benefits, with their discreet appearance being one of the most appealing features. While this is the primary reason many people choose clear aligners, several other advantages make them a preferred alternative to traditional metal braces.
ADDITIONAL KEY BENEFITS OF INVISALIGN®
At Hygge Laser Dentistry in Seattle, we are committed to advanced dental technology and treatments because of the effectiveness, comfort and convenience provided to our patients. Invisalign® clear aligners, in addition to the most obvious benefits, offer patients the comfort and confidence found in choosing the #1 doctor-preferred clear aligner treatment.
-
Aesthetically Discreet: Clear aligners are virtually invisible, making them a popular choice for those seeking a more subtle orthodontic treatment.
-
Increased Comfort: Smooth, plastic aligners do not irritate the mouth or gums like traditional braces, which can cause discomfort from wires or brackets. Patients often report less pain during the tooth-shifting process.
-
Improved Oral Hygiene: Unlike braces, which can trap food and plaque around brackets, clear aligners are removable, making brushing and flossing much easier and more effective.
-
No Dietary Restrictions: Since the aligners are removable, patients can continue to eat and drink their favorite foods without restriction. Just remove the aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water.
-
Faster Treatment with Fewer Visits: Clear aligners typically require less time to achieve results compared to traditional braces, and they generally involve fewer office visits, providing a more convenient and efficient treatment experience.
