Brooklin- Whitby Invisalign Braces

If patients have teeth that are crooked or have spaces, and they are unhappy with how their teeth look, we can now offer them an alternative option to traditional metal braces. At Dr. Shane Snider Dentistry, we use Invisalign, which are smooth clear aligners, custom made for each patient, that are very comfortable to wear. The patient wears the aligners, and using gentle pressure the teeth are gradually moved to their ideal position, based on a computer 3D simulation. A new set of aligners are made for the patient every two weeks to guide the teeth into their designated location. The entire length of treatment varies based on each patient’s case, but in only about one year, Invisalign can re-align even more advanced cases.

WHY INVISALIGN

More and more people are opting for Invisalign because of its many advantages over traditional braces.  The main advantage being that patients no longer have to have a mouth full of metal in order to get that beautiful smile they have always wanted. Patients now have a comfortable alternative that doesn’t involve irritating brackets or wires. Also, Invisalign aligners are removable so they can be taken out to eat and drink, when attending special events, and to brush and floss. The ability to easily perform at home oral hygiene is a huge benefit, because too often with traditional metal braces the teeth have some discoloration around the edges of the brackets.

HOW IT WORKS

INVISALIGN PROCEDURES – CUSTOMIZATION AND COST

Traditional metal braces have always been used to straighten patient’s teeth, correct bites, and re-align jaw issues. However, many patients are not comfortable with the idea of getting all that metal and wire put on their teeth, and also don’t want to have to keep up with the intensive home and in-office care that is required with metal braces.  Invisalign is the new advanced technology to create beautiful smiles for our patients without using metal braces.

Invisalign technology of straightening teeth utilizes smooth clear aligners, custom made for each patient, that are very comfortable to wear. The patient wears the aligners a minimum of 2 hours per day, and using gentle pressure the teeth are gradually moved to their ideal position, based on a computer 3D simulation.

HOW MUCH DOES INVISALIGN COST?

The cost of Invisalign treatment is different from patient to patient and is priced on a case by case basis. A cost for each patient can be quoted after a proper assessment is completed. There is no standard fee but for reference it’s comparable to that of traditional braces. There are many factors to consider before a price can be given such as the severity of spacing and/or crowding, the patient’s age, and the number of aligners that will be needed to achieve the desired results. It’s important to note that dental insurance plans will cover the cost of Invisalign in the same way in which they cover other orthodontics. For patients who don’t have insurance coverage for Invisalign, payments plans can be arranged.

I AM VERY INTERESTED, WHERE CAN I GET INVISALIGN?

Our team of dentists at Dr. Shane Snider Dentistry are able to provide our patients with Invisalign treatment from beginning to end. In just minutes, with our advanced 3D digital iTero scanner, we are able to take digital impressions of the patient’s teeth that are precise and accurate. This allows our patients to have a comfortable and interactive dental experience like none they have had before. With this state of the art technology our dentists are able to capture a digital impression that shows a detailed image of the patient’s teeth and gum tissue. Gone are the days where patients have to tolerate goopy impression material with uncomfortable trays in their mouths because let’s face it not all of us can stop a strong gag reflux.

After scanning, the information collected is used to make a 3D model on screen of what the teeth look like at the present, and what the possible outcome will be after the completion of Invisalign treatment. This gives the patient the opportunity to be involved in their treatment, and collaborate with the dentist to make more informed decisions about their final results.

BEFORE AND AFTER

Invisalign works progressively by using light pressure against the teeth to re-align them. The system of aligners is able to correct all types of orthodontic issues, such as extra spacing between teeth, crowded teeth, overbites, and open bites.
