How does Invisalign Treatment Works?

3 easy steps can help you to get your Invisalign braces:

Step 1 – Meet with your Invisalign Doctor (Orthodontist) so that he can take a fast and precise 3D digital scan of your teeth to make a perfect custom treatment plan for you.

Step 2 – To execute the plan, your orthodontist will create a series of custom aligners. You have to wear your custom aligner that will be used to pressurize your teeth to move into the desired places. The doctor will examine whether it fits you well. For checking the progress and the next batch of aligners, you have to schedule the checkups every few weeks.

You can see the results within a few weeks, but as per the complexity of your case, it may vary in weeks.

Step 3 – After wearing aligners for two or more weeks, your doctor will inspect your teeth to ensure whether your teeth need refinement.

Once the treatment is complete, you will need to wear retainers named ‘Vivera’. These Vivera retainers are 30% stronger than any other retainers.
