Invisalign Clear Aligners Rogers

How Invisalign Works

Invisalign utilizes multiple sets of special, custom-made clear aligners that apply gradual, targeted pressure to the teeth to realign them into a straighter position, or to correct other orthodontic issues such as overbites, underbites, crossbites, and more. Patients typically have to wear their aligners for 20 to 22 hours every day, only removing them to clean their teeth or eat, in order for the aligners to properly move the teeth gently and discreetly.

Who is a Good Fit for Invisalign?

We provide solutions for the following problems:

Misaligned/Crooked Teeth

Misalignment and crowding can wreak havoc on your smile, causing crooked teeth, jaw issues, and limited oral functionality. Symptoms of misalignment and crowding may include crooked teeth, overlapped teeth, difficulty chewing, and discomfort or pain while eating.

Invisalign treatment easily and comfortably shifts your teeth using custom-fit aligners to gradually move them into proper alignment, leaving any crowding issues you have in the past.

Chipped/Cracked & Worn Down Teeth

Stop hiding your smile because of chipped, cracked, or worn down teeth - Invisalign aligners can be paired with other cosmetic dentistry solutions such as porcelain veneers, crowns, and bonding to correct multiple smile issues.

Before starting Invisalign treatment, we will thoroughly examine your teeth, identify any issues you have, and correct your chipped, cracked, or worn down teeth. After correcting these issues, if it’s determined that you are a good candidate for Invisalign treatment, we can create custom-fit aligners for you to straighten your smile.

Overbite/Underbite

If your bottom teeth jut out, or your upper teeth come forward past your bottom teeth, you likely have an overbite. Underbites and overbites can make it difficult to chew properly and speak clearly, and they can even cause your teeth to wear down more quickly over time.

With Invisalign aligners, jaw pain, chewing difficulties, gum disease, and other oral health issues caused by overbite/underbite are no more. Using a 3D visual interface and precise mapping software, we can create your aligners and custom-fit them to your unique smile.

Gapped Teeth

Whether you are embarrassed by or are experiencing pain or discomfort in your gums because of a large gap in between your teeth, Invisalign aligners can be used to close any unwanted, troublesome gaps.

Gapped teeth can also create pockets between your teeth and gums, causing discomfort and pain, trapping food, and in some cases, lead to gum disease and other oral health issues. Talk to your dentist during your consultation to see how Invisalign treatment can help you correct spacing issues and get a brand-new, beautiful, seamless smile you can be confident about.

The Benefits of Invisalign

Invisalign offers many unique benefits that traditional orthodontic options simply cannot match. Consider these advantages:

• The aligners are made of a transparent plastic material and are pretty much invisible while being worn.
• The aligners are fully removable, meaning Invisalign doesn’t have the same dietary restrictions as metal braces, and oral hygiene is easier to perform daily.
• Patients generally enjoy shorter treatment timelines compared to metal braces, as well as a more comfortable overall experience.

Living with Invisalign Clear Aligners

With Invisalign clear aligners, you can:

• Keep eating all your favorite foods.
• Continue playing all the sports and games you love.
• Keep brushing and flossing like you normally do, without the hassle of metal brackets or wires.
• Be ready for anything that comes your way, whether it's going to a movie with friends or out for a coffee with family - just take your aligners out while eating or drinking, then brush or rinse your teeth before putting them back in, and you are all set!
• Carefully monitor your progress - blue compliance indicator dots let you know if the aligners are being worn enough.
• Avoid having to see the doctor for broken brackets or bands - Invisalign aligners only require check-ups every 4-8 weeks, during which your dentist will check your progress and give you a fresh set of aligners.
• Have peace of mind knowing your aligners are clean. Braces can easily get food stuck in them, and it can be difficult to clean brackets and bands, but Invisalign aligners are easily removable; you can rinse and gently brush them every night to keep them fresh and clean.
