How it Works
Why Modern Dental of Durham for Invisalign Treatment?:
Doctor Shepherd has a love for Invisalign. He and his team have spent countless hours on continuing education to ensure they are always at the top of their game when it comes to new developments for Invisalign, and patient satisfaction.
Our team has undergone the Invisalign treatment with their own teeth. We know what it is like to wear the aligners, and can explain Invisalign from both the patient and clinician perspective.
Why Invisalign Treatment?: Invisalign is an orthodontic appliance that is used to straighten teeth. The process involves using invisible, removable, plastic aligners to move teeth into their best and ideal position in the mouth
How does Invisalign work?: Each patient will be prescribed their own custom and unique treatment plan along with a series of clear aligners. The aligners will be worn sequentially with each aligner being worn for about 2 weeks. The aligners are removed only to eat, drink, and daily hygiene. Your teeth will move little by little each week in a slow and painless process. Your compliance determines your results
How long does the process take?: In most cases, the final results will occur between 9 to 14 months. Some cases may require more or less time depending on the type of movement that needs to be made to achieve your perfect smile.
Our Expert Care: The Molis Coaching Program is instructed by Dr. Ryan Molis, the leading Invisalign provider in the world, and one of six doctors serving on the Invisalign Development Panel. We are proud to be a part of the small group of dentists that have the opportunity to be coached by Dr. Molis and believe we can provide the best Invisalign treatment with the knowledge we have gained.
Invisalign Treatment FAQs
Many teens and adults with crooked teeth, gaps, crowding, or certain bite problems may be candidates for Invisalign. Your dentist will evaluate your teeth, bite, and overall oral health to determine whether clear aligners are a good option for you.
Yes. Because Invisalign aligners are removable, you can continue enjoying most of your favorite foods during treatment. Simply remove your aligners before eating and clean your teeth before putting them back in.
Invisalign can treat many cases involving overbites, underbites, crossbites, and other bite concerns. Whether Invisalign is appropriate depends on the type and severity of the problem, so an evaluation is necessary to determine your treatment options.
Yes. Invisalign is commonly used to straighten crowded, crooked, and overlapping teeth. The aligners gradually guide the teeth into their planned positions throughout treatment.
Invisalign may cause temporary pressure or tenderness, especially when you begin wearing a new set of aligners. This is typically mild and is a normal sign that your aligners are gradually moving your teeth.
Treatment time varies from person to person, but many Invisalign cases take approximately 6–18 months. Minor corrections may take less time, while more complex tooth movements can require longer treatment.
Invisalign aligners generally need to be worn for about 20–22 hours per day. You should usually remove them only when eating, drinking anything other than water, brushing, and flossing.
The cost of Invisalign varies depending on the complexity of your case and the length of treatment needed. After evaluating your teeth and bite, your dentist can create a personalized treatment plan and provide a more accurate estimate of your cost.
It depends on your individual orthodontic needs. Invisalign may provide a shorter treatment time for certain cases, while traditional braces may be more appropriate for others. Following your prescribed aligner schedule is also important for keeping treatment on track.
After Invisalign treatment, you’ll typically need to wear a retainer to help keep your teeth in their new positions. Your dentist will provide instructions on how often and how long to wear your retainer to help maintain your new smile.
