If you've ever wanted a straighter smile but dreaded the thought of traditional metal braces, Invisalign clear aligners are the modern solution you've been looking for. Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, virtually invisible plastic trays to gently and gradually shift your teeth into their proper positions.
As a premier Invisalign provider in Kennewick, Tri City Dental Care uses advanced 3D computer imaging technology to map out your entire treatment plan from the initial position to the final desired result. Every 1 to 2 weeks, you simply swap out your current aligner for the next one in the series. Because the aligners are clear and fit snugly over your teeth, most people won't even realize you're undergoing orthodontic treatment.
Clear aligners are incredibly versatile and can correct a wide range of mild to severe orthodontic issues, including:
We will discuss your smile goals, examine your teeth, and determine if you are a good candidate for clear aligners.
We use advanced digital scanners to take a quick, highly accurate 3D model of your teeth. No uncomfortable, messy impression materials required. We can even show you a digital preview of your new smile!
Your scans are sent to the Invisalign lab where your custom series of aligners is precisely manufactured from comfortable, BPA-free plastic.
You will wear your aligners for 20-22 hours a day, switching to the next set in the series every 1-2 weeks as directed by our team. Your teeth will gradually shift into place.
Once treatment is complete, you will receive a custom retainer to maintain your stunning new results for a lifetime.
The timeline for clear aligner treatment varies depending on the complexity of your case and how diligently you wear your aligners. While some minor alignment corrections can take as little as 6 months, an average treatment plan usually runs between 12 to 18 months.
The most crucial factor in finishing treatment on time is wearing the trays for the required 20-22 hours every single day.
Keeping your aligners clear and odor-free is simple. Clean them every morning and evening when you brush your teeth.
Many patients are surprised to learn that Invisalign is often comparable in price to traditional metal braces. Cost depends on the complexity of your specific case. Because your smile is an investment, we strive to make treatment as affordable as possible.
