Spectacular Smiles Without the Hardware
Invisalign® is a popular orthodontic treatment option that involves a series of custom, removable, clear aligners crafted from smooth, BPA-free plastic. The aligners fit over your teeth and most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them. As you go through the series, changing to a new set of aligners every week or two, your teeth will gradually shift into place based on Dr. Moran and Dr. White’s treatment plan. When you finish, you’ll have an ideal smile and a healthy bite! To find out if you’re a candidate for Invisalign in Denver, Centennial, Winter Park, or Granby, CO, schedule an exam at Foundations Orthodontics online or by calling us at (303) 694-4330.
The Basics of Invisalign Treatment
It’s important to keep in mind that while Invisalign is an excellent tool, it’s just that, a tool. Much of the success of your treatment depends on your orthodontist's treatment plan. Choosing an experienced doctor like our Denver Invisalign provider will ensure you get all of the cosmetic, functional, and oral health benefits.
To start the process, we use our digital dental scanner to take quick, comfortable digital impressions of your teeth and gums (no goopy molds!). A 3D model of your dental anatomy is created and our doctors map out each individual tooth movement directly on this computerized rendering. With the Invisalign Outcome Simulator, she can even show you what your smile will look like when you finish treatment!
Invisalign then prints your custom aligners according to Dr. Moran and Dr. White’s treatment plan for the perfect fit. Each set of aligners is pre-programmed by our doctors to move certain teeth by exerting steady, gentle force. Once you make it through your entire series, you’ll have straight teeth, a healthy bite, and an aligned jaw to show for it.
