Invisalign - Mouth Tray Updates

Invisalign is a popular orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth. One of the benefits of Invisalign is that the aligners are custom-made for each patient, and they are updated every two to six weeks to reflect the patient's progress and ensure that the teeth are moving in the right direction.

Staying on Track for a Great Smile

At Malan Family Dentistry, our team will typically schedule appointments every six to eight weeks to monitor your progress and determine if it's time to switch to a new set of aligners. 

These appointments are an important part of the Invisalign process because they allow our dentists to make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan and ensure that you are on track to achieve your desired results.

What to Expect

During these appointments, our dentists will examine your teeth and aligners, and they may take X-rays or impressions to get a better understanding of your progress. If it's time for a new set of aligners, our dentists will remove your current aligners and provide you with the next set in the series. 

They will also give you instructions on how to care for your new aligners and how long to wear them each day.

Treatment Timelines

It's important to keep in mind that everyone's treatment timeline is different, and the frequency with which you need to update your aligners will depend on several factors, including the severity of your bite issues, your compliance with wearing the aligners, and the progress you have made so far.

In some cases, you may need to switch to a new set of aligners more frequently if you are not wearing them for the recommended amount of time each day.
