At Division Street Dental Group in Palmdale, we believe in creating customized treatment plans to help you achieve the best possible results with Invisalign. Your Invisalign treatment plan is carefully designed based on a thorough assessment of your unique dental needs, ensuring that your journey to a straighter smile is as efficient and comfortable as possible. Here’s how the process of creating your personalized Invisalign plan works:
Your Invisalign journey begins with an in-depth consultation with our experienced dentist. During this visit, we will assess your oral health and discuss your goals for treatment. If Invisalign is a suitable option for you, we’ll proceed with the next steps. We’ll also explain how long your treatment will take and answer any questions you have.
Instead of traditional molds, we use state-of-the-art 3D imaging technology to create a digital impression of your teeth. This allows us to capture highly detailed images of your teeth and gums, providing a precise model for planning your treatment. These digital impressions are more comfortable than traditional molds and ensure a highly accurate result.
Using the 3D digital impressions, we create a customized treatment plan using advanced software. This software allows us to map out the entire course of your treatment, showing you exactly how your teeth will gradually move into their desired positions. You’ll be able to view a virtual representation of your smile’s transformation throughout the treatment process.
Once your treatment plan is finalized, a series of clear aligners are created specifically for your teeth. These aligners are made from smooth, durable plastic and are designed to apply gentle pressure on your teeth, shifting them into the desired positions over time. Each set of aligners will be worn for approximately 1-2 weeks before moving on to the next set in the series.
Throughout your treatment, we will schedule regular check-ups to monitor your progress. These visits allow us to ensure that your teeth are shifting as planned and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment. If needed, we can fine-tune your aligners to ensure the best possible results.
Once your treatment is complete and your teeth are in their final positions, we’ll provide you with retainers to maintain your new smile. Retainers are essential to prevent your teeth from shifting back to their original positions.
