The Invisalign system is all about simplicity. Gentle pressure exerted by the incrementally changing aligners causes the teeth to shift into the desired position. All you have to do is wear the aligners as directed, and you should see results in no time.

Once Dr. Nguyen has determined that Invisalign is right for you, she will take impressions of your teeth that help them create your alignment plan. Those impressions are then sent to Invisalign facilities, where your aligners are manufactured. Once your aligners are ready, you’ll come into Forever Smiles so our doctors can make sure they fit properly. You’ll go home with your first few sets.

Wear your aligners for at least 20-22 hours per day to stay on track with treatment. You should only have to remove them to brush, floss, and eat. Change out your current set for the next set every two weeks. And don’t forget to see Dr. Nguyen every six weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing. Depending on your case, you could be done with treatment in as little as a year.
