How Invisalign Works
The Invisalign system has been successful in giving hundreds of thousands of amazing smiles to both teens and adults. The process is very straight forward:
-
Aligners are worn for 22 hours a day, and only removed to eat, brush or floss.
-
Your teeth will move bit by bit and you'll be changing aligners every two weeks.
-
You'll check in with the doctor for a progress report every 6 weeks.
-
Length of treatment depends on the amount of movement needed; the average is 11 months, with a range of 5 months - 2 years possible.
