Understanding Invisalign
Invisalign is a cutting-edge orthodontic treatment that uses clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth. Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, allowing you to improve your smile discreetly.
Each set of aligners is custom-made to fit your teeth and is worn for about two weeks before being replaced by the next set in the series. This gradual process moves your teeth into their desired position, giving you a straighter, more confident smile.

Smile Assessment and 3D Imaging
Your Invisalign journey begins with a comprehensive smile assessment at Frontier Family Dental. We’ll examine your teeth, discuss your smile goals, and use advanced 3D imaging technology to create a digital model of your teeth. This allows us to show you a preview of your new smile and determine if Invisalign is the right option for you.
Personalized Aligner Design
Based on your smile assessment, we’ll develop a customized Invisalign treatment plan. This plan outlines the expected movement of your teeth and estimates the duration of your treatment. We’ll work closely with you to ensure the plan aligns with your goals and lifestyle needs, creating a series of aligners tailored to your smile.
Starting Your Invisalign Journey
Once your custom aligners are ready, we’ll provide you with your first sets and guide you on how to use them properly. You’ll wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, typically for 20-22 hours a day. As you progress through the series, you’ll see your teeth gradually moving into their new positions, bringing you closer to your ideal smile.
Aligner Care and Oral Hygiene
Throughout your treatment, we’ll provide you with tips on how to care for your aligners and maintain excellent oral hygiene. This includes proper cleaning techniques for your aligners and advice on keeping your teeth healthy during the straightening process. We’ll also guide you on what to do if you misplace an aligner or experience any discomfort, ensuring a smooth Invisalign experience.
Progress Check-ins and Refinements
Regular check-ups at Frontier Family Dental will allow us to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan. These appointments are typically quick and easy, ensuring your Invisalign treatment stays on track. We’ll assess your results as you near the end of your aligner series and may recommend refinements or a retainer to maintain your new, beautifully aligned smile.

FAQs About Invisalign
How long does invisalign take?
The duration of Invisalign treatment varies depending on individual needs. On average, treatment can take anywhere from 6 to 18 months. Factors that influence treatment time include the complexity of your case and how consistently you wear your aligners. During your consultation at Frontier Family Dental, we’ll provide a more accurate estimate based on your specific situation.
Can invisalign fix overbite?
Yes, Invisalign can effectively treat overbites in many cases. The advanced technology behind Invisalign allows for precise tooth movements, making it suitable for correcting various bite issues, including overbites. However, the severity of your overbite will determine whether Invisalign is the best treatment option. At Frontier Family Dental, we’ll assess your specific case and recommend the most appropriate solution for your needs.
How to clean invisalign?
Cleaning your Invisalign aligners is simple and crucial for maintaining good oral hygiene. Rinse your aligners every time you remove them and brush them gently with a soft toothbrush and clear soap or Invisalign cleaning crystals. Avoid using hot water, as it can warp the plastic. Always brush and floss your teeth before reinserting your aligners to prevent trapping food particles and bacteria against your teeth.
Does invisalign hurt?
Invisalign is generally considered more comfortable than traditional braces. You may experience some mild discomfort or pressure when you first start wearing a new set of aligners, but this typically subsides within a few days. This sensation is a sign that your aligners are working to move your teeth. If you experience persistent pain or discomfort, contact us at Frontier Family Dental, and we’ll address your concerns promptly.
What is invisalign?
Invisalign is a system of clear aligners that straightens teeth and improves malocclusions (abnormal bites). A convenient alternative to braces, Invisalign clear aligners are transparent and removable. Invisalign allows you to complete orthodontic treatment with fewer limitations than braces, making it an ideal solution for teens and adults.
How does invisalign work?
Invisalign uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners to gradually shift your teeth into their desired position. Each set of aligners is worn for about two weeks before moving to the next set in the series. The aligners apply gentle, consistent pressure to move your teeth, following a treatment plan designed by your dentist at Frontier Family Dental. This process continues until your teeth reach their final, improved alignment.
What orthodontic concerns can invisalign treat?
Invisalign targets many of the same orthodontic concerns as braces, such as:
- Misaligned teeth
- Overbite
- Underbite
- Crossbite
- Open bite
- Gapped teeth
- Overcrowding
After an initial consultation that includes digital X-rays and digital impressions, your dentist at Frontier Family Dental can determine whether Invisalign is the best fit for you.
What are the benefits of invisalign?
Invisalign offers many benefits over braces, including:
- Faster treatment time – While braces take about 18 months to three years to improve tooth alignment, Invisalign can dramatically enhance your smile in 6-18 months.
- Improved comfort – Invisalign’s proprietary SmartTract® ensures a snug, smooth fit for your aligners. Unlike braces, clear aligners are smooth and don’t irritate your gums.
- Seamless appearance – With thin, transparent materials, Invisalign blends in with your smile. Others may not be able to tell when you’re wearing them.
- Better oral hygiene – Clear aligners are removable, so you can take them out to brush, floss, eat, and drink, reducing your risk of tooth decay and gum disease.
What can I expect from invisalign?
Your dentist uses the iTero® digital scanning system to create fast, precise 3-D digital images of your teeth. They upload these scans into Invisalign’s proprietary software to plan your treatment. Next, they send your scans to Invisalign’s lab, which creates your aligners. You wear a new set of aligners every one to three weeks for at least 22 hours a day.
While Invisalign doesn’t require tightening appointments like braces, your dentist may recommend visiting for checkups every six weeks.
