Reed Orthodontics happily provides Invisalign as a great
alternative to traditional braces.
Invisalign treatment involves a series of completely clear removable
slipcovers, each designed to move your teeth closer to the final result of
straight teeth and a great bite.
During treatment, patients wear their aligners all day and
night expect when eating meals and brushing/flossing. Since the aligners are clear, no one knows that
your teeth are gradually straightening! You can learn more by watching this quick video.
The first step in treatment with Invisalign is a
consultation with Dr. Reed to ensure that your teeth and bite will respond well
to Invisalign therapy.
Step two is to
take a set of impressions of your teeth as well as one xray and some photos. All of this information is digitized and sent
to Invisalign so that the aligners can be fabricated by their state of the art
laboratory.
Approximately two weeks
later the patient returns to receive the first set of aligners. Dr. Reed and her staff review the process of
wearing the slipcovers and will have the patient return every 6 to 8 weeks for
minor adjustments and to evaluate the progress.
To find out if you are a great candidate for Invisalign
treatment, we invite you to call Dr. Reed’s office to schedule your initial consultation.
