How an Invisalign® Treatment Plan is Made

Your Guide to Invisalign® Treatment Plans

The first step in creating an Invisalign® treatment plan is to consult with an orthodontist. During the consultation, the orthodontist will take a look at your teeth and bite. They will also ask you about your dental history and any previous treatment you have had. Based on this information, the orthodontist will be able to determine if Invisalign® is the right treatment for you.

Next, the orthodontist will take X-rays and pictures of your mouth and teeth. These pictures will be used to create a 3D model of your teeth. This model will be used to develop your custom Invisalign® treatment plan.

Once the treatment plan is developed, the orthodontist will go over the plan with you. They will explain what the treatment will involve and how long it is expected to take. Once you have been given all the information, you will be able to make an informed decision about whether or not to proceed with Invisalign® treatment.

If you decide to proceed with Invisalign® treatment, the next step is to have your custom aligners made. The aligners are made from a clear, plastic material and are designed to fit snugly over your teeth. Once the aligners are ready, you will be able to start your treatment.

During treatment, you will need to wear the aligners for at least 20 hours per day. You will also need to visit the orthodontist for regular check-ups. At each visit, the orthodontist will assess your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
