Straighten Your Smile Discreetly with Invisalign

The whole world doesn’t need to know that you have braces.

If you are an adult who is dealing with a crooked or misaligned smile, you may be wondering if it’s too late to correct the issue. Our Stamford, CT, dentists, Dr. Irina Pogosian and Dr. Thomas Ohlson, will wholeheartedly tell you that it’s never too late to get a straighter smile. In this day and age, dental technology has come a long way and now we can offer our patients the ability to straighten their smiles with a clear orthodontic system known as Invisalign.

 

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that, instead of using brackets and wires like traditional braces, uses clear custom-made aligners that cover the teeth. Each aligner is created based on measurements taken of your mouth. Made from medical-grade thermoplastic, these aligners offer a comfortable fit while shifting your teeth into the ideal position.

 

How does Invisalign work?

Before you can get Invisalign treatment our Stamford, CT, general dentists will need to examine your smile and determine whether or not Invisalign is right for you. Once we deem you an ideal candidate for treatment the next step will be to take scans of your teeth to measure them.

These measurements will provide the dental lab with the information they need to create perfectly fitted aligners that will only shift around teeth that need to be moved in order to achieve an ideal smile. The number of aligners you’ll receive will depend on the severity of the dental issues that you wish to correct.

Invisalign is ideal for correcting,

  • Gaps between teeth
  • Crooked teeth
  • Crowding
  • Overbites
  • Underbites
  • Crossbites
  • Open bites

If you are an adult or older teen who is dealing with any of these problems then Invisalign may be an ideal solution for you.

 

How often do I need to wear my aligners?

Since aligners are removable, it can be tempting to take them off whenever you feel like it. However, if you want results, it’s important that you keep your aligners on as much as possible throughout the day, only removing them before meals and before brushing and flossing. The rest of the time your aligners should be worn. This equates to wearing them for about 22 hours each day.
