Clear removable aligners used in selected orthodontic treatment plans after an individual assessment.

Clear aligners in an orthodontic plan

Invisalign treatment uses a planned sequence of removable aligners to guide selected tooth movements. The process begins with an assessment of teeth, gums, bite, and treatment goals.

Planning and records

Digital scans, photographs, or diagnostic imaging may be used when appropriate. A digital preview can support planning and discussion, but it is not a guarantee of the final result.

What treatment requires

Aligners generally need to be worn according to the prescribed schedule and removed for eating, drinking anything other than water, and oral hygiene. Appointments allow progress to be checked and the plan adjusted when needed.

Treatment time, comfort, attachments, refinements, and retention needs vary. Ask the practice how the current Invisalign workflow applies to your needs.

Frequently asked questions

Are clear aligners appropriate for everyone?

No. Suitability depends on the tooth movements needed, oral health, growth, restorations, and the ability to follow the treatment plan. An orthodontic assessment is required.
