Overview

Invisalign at Manningtree Dental and Implant Centre offers a modern alternative to traditional metal braces for those seeking a discreet solution to straighten their teeth. This innovative orthodontic Invisalign braces treatment utilises a series of clear, removable aligners custom-designed to gradually shift teeth into their desired positions. Unlike conventional braces, Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, making them a popular choice for individuals who prefer a more aesthetic approach to orthodontic care.

What Is Invisalign Used To Treat?

Invisalign effectively addresses a range of dental alignment issues. This includes mild to moderate cases of crooked teeth, gaps between teeth, overcrowding, and bite issues such as overbites, underbites, and crossbites. The system is suitable for both teenagers and adults, providing a flexible solution tailored to individual needs. The precision of the Invisalign system allows for targeted adjustments to achieve the desired smile with minimal impact on daily life.

The Treatment Process

A typical Invisalign orthodontic treatment process is as follows:

Initial Consultation

The process begins with an initial consultation at Manningtree Dental and Implant Centre, where your dentist will evaluate your orthodontic needs and discuss your treatment goals.

Digital Impressions and 3D Imaging

After the consultation, digital impressions and 3D imaging are taken to create a precise and detailed treatment plan.

Crafting Custom Aligners

Based on the treatment plan, custom aligners are designed and crafted specifically for your teeth.

Wearing the Aligners

You will wear the aligners for 22 hours a day. Every two weeks, you will switch to a new set of aligners as directed.

Regular Check-Ups

Periodic check-ups will be scheduled to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to ensure the treatment is on track.

Treatment Aftercare

After completing the Invisalign treatment, it’s crucial to maintain oral hygiene and possibly use retainers as advised by your invisalign dentist to prevent teeth from shifting back. Regular dental check-ups will help ensure your smile remains in its new, improved position.

FAQs

How long does Invisalign treatment take?

Invisalign treatment typically takes between 6-18 months, depending on the complexity of your case and your adherence to wearing the aligners. Your dentist will provide a more precise estimate during your initial consultation, and the treatment time will be tailored to your specific needs.

Are Invisalign aligners comfortable to wear?

Most patients find Invisalign aligners comfortable. They are made of smooth plastic and custom-fitted to your teeth, reducing the likelihood of irritation compared to traditional braces. Some initial discomfort may occur as your teeth adjust, but this usually subsides within a few days.

Can I eat and drink while wearing Invisalign aligners?

No, it’s important to remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water. Eating with the aligners in place can damage them and may stain your teeth. After eating, clean your teeth and aligners before reinserting them.

How often do I need to visit the dentist during Invisalign treatment?

You will typically need to visit your dentist every 6-8 weeks for check-ups. These appointments allow your dentist to monitor your progress, ensure the aligners are fitting correctly, and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan.

What happens if I lose or damage an aligner?

If you lose or damage an aligner, contact your dentist as soon as possible. They can provide a replacement or advise you on how to proceed. In some cases, you might need to temporarily use the previous aligner until a replacement is ready.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I finished my treatment (New Crown) today from Angela Aggarwal & Nurse Jo and have to say I have never have never received such first class treatment before and would not hesitate to recommend them both to my friends and others.

I never thought I would say this, but I now actually look forward to going to the dentist these days.

Thank you again Angela and Jo

I am currently receiving treatment from Angela Aggarwal and her assistant Jo - both are very professional in how they are delivering the treatment.

Had 2nd treatment today (5th July) and received professional treatment I’ve never experienced before. Today’s treatment was 2hrs long and painless.

Today (28th July) I had to see Angela & Jo to have some minor minor adjustments before having the crown fitted in September. Once again both Angela & Jo were very professional. Already telling friends how good they are and also going to give them and the practice a mention on my social media platforms

Thanks again Angela and Jo

Saw Louise the Hygienist the other week. Very welcoming and certainly knowledgeable. She got me back on track on how to look after my teeth.

I would have no problem recommending her
