What to Expect With Invisalign® Treatment?
The first step is to have a consultation with our team. We’ll discuss Invisalign® treatment with you and determine if you may be a candidate.
1. Treatment Assessment
Once you have decided to move forward, we’ll need to gather the information required by the Invisalign® laboratory. Impressions, pictures and other data are necessary to custom-create your aligners.
*You’ll also be able to see before-and-after pictures of your treatment so that you’ll know what your teeth will look like once they have reached their final position.
2. Aligner Pickup
Once the laboratory creates your aligners, they’ll be sent back to our clinic. You can pick them up and begin wearing them straightaway.
