Frequently Asked Questions
Choosing the right orthodontic treatment is an important decision. Below are answers to common questions patients have about Invisalign, including treatment expectations, lifestyle considerations, and how clear aligners fit into everyday life.
Can Invisalign fix complex orthodontic problems?
Many people are surprised to learn that Invisalign can address a wide range of orthodontic concerns, including crowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. The best way to determine if Invisalign is right for your case is through a professional evaluation.
How do I clean my Invisalign aligners?
Keeping aligners clean is important for both oral health and appearance. Most patients clean their aligners daily using lukewarm water, a soft toothbrush, and aligner-cleaning products recommended by their orthodontist. Hot water should be avoided because it can warp the plastic.
Can I switch from braces to Invisalign during treatment?
In some situations, patients who have already started treatment with braces may be candidates for transitioning to Invisalign. Eligibility depends on treatment progress, orthodontic goals, and the complexity of the case.
Does Invisalign treatment cost more than braces?
Treatment costs vary based on the complexity of your case and the length of treatment rather than the appliance alone. During your consultation, we’ll provide a personalized treatment estimate and discuss all available options so you can make an informed decision.
