This makes the process easier and more comfortable, but\nmost importantly it means that you can straighten your teeth at your complete\ndiscretion. We will find out if Invisalign is the best choice of orthodontic\ntreatment for you and we will put together an individually tailored treatment\nplan that is suitable for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does Invisalign work?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For optimal results with Invisalign it is important that you\nfollow the guidelines very strictly. This means you have to wear your aligners\nfor approximately 22 hours of the day giving you 2 hours for meal times and\ncleaning your teeth. You may wish to set a timer on your phone every time you\ntake out your aligners, so that you are aware of how long they have been out of\nyour mouth to make sure that they are not out of your mouth for any longer than\nthey have to be. You will be given a small case in which you can place your\naligners when they are out of your mouth. This is more hygienic than putting\nthem in your pocket or leaving them lying around where there is greater chance\nof losing them. Once you have finished your meal you need to brush your teeth\nthoroughly, floss between your teeth and if possible rinse with a good\nmouthwash before placing your aligners back into your mouth. This helps your\nteeth remain clean and healthy throughout the process. Invisalign can\nstraighten your teeth within 6 to 12 months, but for more complicated cases\nthis may be longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Maintaining your new smile<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The retention stage is very important for keeping your teeth nice and straight. Once you have completed wearing all your aligners and you are happy with the alignment of your teeth then any attachments can be taken off and we will give you a clear set of retainers very similar to your Invisalign aligners. It is important that you wear your retainers according to the guidelines, otherwise your teeth can begin to move back to their original state. It is also important that you have regular check-ups at our dentist to make sure that your teeth are clean and healthy. You should visit the hygienist regularly to remove excess plaque and tartar from your teeth and by maintaining a good dental hygiene routine at home you will be able to enjoy a happy and beautiful smile for the rest of your life.
