- Invisalign uses a series of clear removable aligners to straighten your teeth without metal wires or brackets.
- The aligners are made through a combination of Dr. Malhotra‘s expertise and 3-D computer imaging technology.
- You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
- As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move – little by little, week by week – until they have straightened to the final position Dr. Malhotra has prescribed.
- You’ll visit Dr. Malhotra about once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.
- Total treatment time averages 9 – 15 months and the average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but both will vary from case to case.
- Dr. Malhotra is Preferred Provider for Invisalign
What is Invisalign?
A revolution in orthodontics, Invisalign clear aligners provide an effective way to straighten your teeth while remaining virtually invisible. X-rays and impressions of your teeth are administered and used to create a series of custom-made, clear, plastic aligners. Each aligner is worn for about two weeks, moving your teeth little by little until the final result is achieved. Treatment time varies per patient, depending on your specific needs.
