Invisalign orthodontics is a modern and effective way to straighten your teeth without the need for traditional braces. This type of treatment uses clear, custom-made aligners to gradually shift your teeth into the desired position. Invisalign is one of the most popular orthodontic treatments available and is a great option for those who want to avoid the metal braces that can be visible on the teeth. Somerville Orthodontics utilizes the latest technology and advanced treatment options to ensure the most efficient and comfortable treatment plan for their patients.

Invisalign orthodontics treatment begins with the patient receiving a 3D scan from their orthodontist. This scan is used to create a treatment plan that is specifically tailored to the patient’s needs. The orthodontist then creates a series of aligners that the patient wears for several weeks at a time. Each aligner is slightly different than the previous one, gradually shifting the teeth into the desired position.

They can be used to treat a variety of issues, such as overcrowding, gaps between the teeth, overbite, and underbite. The treatment usually takes between six to eighteen months to complete, depending on the severity of the issue. During treatment, patients must wear the aligners for at least 20-22 hours a day in order for the treatment to be successful.

Invisalign orthodontics is a great option for those who want to avoid the metal braces that can be visible on the teeth. It also allows for a more comfortable experience, as the aligners are made from a smooth, flexible plastic that is designed to fit snugly against the teeth.
