Removable Retainer
Removable Retainer
Removable Retainer, also known as Invisalign, are a type of orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners to straighten and align the teeth.
The aligners are made of a clear, medical-grade plastic that is virtually invisible when worn. They are worn for about 22 hours a day and replaced every two weeks with a new set of aligners that will continue to move the teeth into the desired position.
The process of removable braces (Invisalign) typically involves the following steps:
- Initial Consultation:The orthodontist will examine your teeth and take X-rays to determine if you are a good candidate for Invisalign. They will also discuss your treatment options and explain the process to you.
- Impressions And Digital Scans: The orthodontist will take impressions or digital scans of your teeth to create a detailed map of your dental structure.
- Treatment Planning:Your orthodontist will use the digital scans to create a customized treatment plan that will map out the movement of your teeth throughout the course of your treatment.
- Fabrication Of Aligners:Using the treatment plan, a series of custom-made aligners will be created for you.
- Wearing The Aligners: You will wear the aligners for about 22 hours a day, only taking them out for eating, brushing, and flossing. You will replace them every two weeks with a new set of aligners that will continue to move your teeth into the desired position.
- Progress Check-Ups: Your orthodontist will schedule regular check-ups to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
- Retention: After the treatment is completed, your orthodontist will give you a retainer to wear to help keep your teeth in their new position.
- Follow-Up Visits: The orthodontist will schedule regular follow-up visits to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments.
It’s important to note that the duration of the treatment varies depending on the individual case but typically between 6-18 months. Your orthodontist will be able to give you a more accurate estimate based on your individual case.
