Invisalign dentists in Long Island City

What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that uses clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth. It’s a discreet alternative to traditional braces, designed for comfort and convenience.

How long does Invisalign treatment take?
Treatment duration varies based on individual needs, typically ranging from 6 to 18 months. Your dentist or orthodontist will provide a personalized timeline during your consultation.

What can I expect during the Invisalign process?

• Initial Consultation: Your dentist will evaluate your teeth and create a custom treatment plan.
• 3D Imaging: Digital scans are used to design a series of aligners that gradually move your teeth.
• Regular Progress Checks: You’ll receive new aligners every 1–2 weeks and visit your dentist periodically to monitor progress.

Is Invisalign painful?
Invisalign aligners may cause slight pressure or discomfort when switching to a new set, but this is temporary and a sign that your teeth are shifting as planned.

How do I care for Invisalign aligners?

• Rinse and brush aligners daily with a soft toothbrush and lukewarm water.
• Remove aligners when eating or drinking anything other than water.
• Store aligners in their case to avoid damage or loss when not in use.
