With Invisalign, you can achieve noticeable results in just a few weeks, with most patients completing their treatment in about 12-18 months.

Why Choose Invisalign?

Invisalign offers a range of benefits over conventional metal braces, making it a popular choice among patients who want a more flexible and aesthetically pleasing orthodontic solution. Here are some of the key reasons to consider Invisalign:

• Discreet Treatment: The clear, nearly invisible aligners are a subtle way to straighten your teeth without the noticeable wires and brackets of traditional braces.
• Comfortable Fit: Made from smooth, BPA-free plastic, Invisalign aligners fit snugly over your teeth without irritating your gums or cheeks.
• Removable Aligners: Unlike fixed braces, Invisalign aligners can be removed for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing, making it easier to maintain good oral hygiene throughout treatment.
• Shorter Treatment Time: Most Invisalign patients complete their treatment within 12-18 months, which is often faster than traditional braces.
• Fewer Office Visits: With Invisalign, you simply change your aligners at home every couple of weeks, requiring fewer visits to the office for adjustments.

Why Straighten Your Teeth?

Straightening your teeth isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s also crucial for maintaining good oral health. Crooked or crowded teeth can be difficult to clean properly, even with diligent brushing and flossing. This can lead to an increased risk of tooth decay, gum disease, and other dental problems. Additionally, misaligned teeth can cause uneven wear, putting undue pressure on certain teeth, which may lead to fractures, chips, and even TMJ disorders.

An uneven bite can cause discomfort, jaw pain, headaches, and problems with chewing. By aligning your teeth with Invisalign, you can reduce these risks and enjoy a healthier, more balanced smile.

The Invisalign Process: What to Expect

Your Invisalign journey at Nashua Family Dental begins with a consultation, where we use advanced digital imaging to create a 3D model of your mouth. This model is used to map out a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and goals. Once your custom aligners are fabricated, you’ll wear them for 20-22 hours a day, switching to a new set approximately every two weeks as your teeth gradually shift into their ideal positions.

• Step 1: Digital Impressions: We use a digital handheld device to capture precise images of your teeth, avoiding the discomfort of traditional impression trays.
• Step 2: Custom Treatment Plan: Using Invisalign’s CAD/CAM software, we create a step-by-step treatment plan, which is sent to the Invisalign lab to produce your custom aligners.
• Step 3: Wearing Your Aligners: You’ll wear your aligners for 22 hours daily, only removing them to eat, drink, brush, and floss. Your aligners will be replaced every two weeks as your smile transforms.
• Step 4: Completing Treatment: Once your treatment is complete, we’ll provide retainers to help maintain your results and keep your smile straight for years to come.

Caring for Your Invisalign Aligners

To ensure successful treatment, it’s essential to care for your Invisalign aligners properly:

• Remove Aligners When Eating or Drinking: Only wear your aligners when drinking water to prevent staining and damage.
• Clean Your Aligners Daily: Rinse your aligners with warm water and use a soft-bristled toothbrush to clean them gently. Avoid using hot water, as it can warp the plastic.
• Keep Aligners in a Ventilated Case: When not in use, store your aligners in a ventilated case to prevent bacteria buildup.
