Achieve a Straight, Healthy Smile with Comfortable, Convenient, and Discreet Invisalign
Do you want a straight smile without a mouthful of metal? You are in luck! Ballston Dental Care offers Invisalign clear aligners in Arlington, Virginia, to straighten your teeth and bite with removable and transparent aligners. This unique orthodontic treatment helps you achieve a straight smile without discomfort or interruption to your lifestyle.
What can Invisalign help with?
Many people want a straight smile to improve their aesthetics. However, orthodontic care goes beyond the visible. A straight smile improves your oral hygiene and confidence. Straighter teeth also work harmoniously to maintain optimal oral function and bite alignment.
Whether you want to align your smile for health or aesthetic issues, you can consider Invisalign. Here are the orthodontic issues you can resolve with Invisalign.
- Open bites
- Overbites or overjets
- Crooked or misaligned teeth
- Overlapping or overcrowded teeth
- Crossbites
- Underbites
- Gapped teeth
Invisalign is a personalized, doctor-supervised treatment. The first step is to book an appointment with an Invisalign dentist like Dr. David Matney. We’ll inspect your teeth and bite and discuss your treatment goals. Then, we’ll craft a personalized treatment plan that suits your unique needs.
How does Invisalign work?
Once we establish Invisalign is suitable for you, we’ll digitally scan your teeth and use the Invisalign ClinCheck software to map out your treatment. This fantastic technology helps the dentist to predict when and how your teeth move throughout your treatment. It allows us to project what your smile will look like, even before treatment starts.
Our Invisalign lab custom-makes your aligners using your treatment plan. Most patients need 18-30 aligners, although you may need more or less based on your specific case or compliance with treatment. You’ll wear the aligners for at least 22 hours daily. The two-hour break allows for teeth cleaning and meals.
Each set of aligners moves your teeth gradually, pushing small portions of your teeth until your entire smile is perfectly aligned. The aligners are worn for about two weeks before you graduate to a new set, which moves your teeth closer to perfection than the previous set. This pattern continues until you achieve the desired goals. Once your aligners come off, Dr. Matney will give you a retainer to preserve the results you’ve worked so hard to achieve.
What are the benefits of Invisalign?
Invisalign is a popular orthodontic treatment, and it’s easy to see why. This treatment offers numerous benefits.
Some include:
- Nearly invisible treatment
- Comfortable treatment because the aligners are smooth and gentle on your gums and cheeks
- The aligners are easy to clean and maintain
- Removable convenience means you can eat all your favorite foods and clean your teeth without limitations
- Advanced technology enables predictable results
- Fewer dental visits
How much does Invisalign cost?
Invisalign has no pre-determined cost since every patient is unique. Your treatment cost depends on the severity of your orthodontic issue and treatment compliance. Our dentist will give you a cost estimate during your consultation. We’ll also take you through the financing options available to make your treatment affordable.
