Embrace a Discreet, Comfortable, and Effective Way to Straighten Your Teeth

At Dentist on Colonial Drive, we understand the importance of a confident smile. Invisalign is a revolutionary orthodontic solution that offers an almost invisible way to straighten your teeth without the traditional wires and brackets. This blog will explore the benefits of Invisalign and how it can help you achieve the smile you've always wanted with minimal disruption to your daily life.


Understanding Invisalign:

Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners that are custom-made to fit snugly over your teeth. These aligners gradually shift your teeth into the desired position. Each set of aligners is worn for about two weeks before moving on to the next set in the series, progressively moving your teeth towards their ideal alignment.


Benefits of Invisalign at Dentist on Colonial Drive:


  • Nearly Invisible:  Invisalign aligners are clear and hardly noticeable, making them a popular choice for adults and teens who want to avoid the look of traditional braces.
  • Removability:  Unlike fixed braces, you can remove your aligners during meals and when brushing or flossing. This convenience allows you to maintain better oral hygiene and enjoy your favorite foods without restrictions.
  • Comfort: With no metal brackets or wires, Invisalign offers a comfortable fit. The smooth, plastic aligners are custom-made to fit your teeth and gums.
  • Predictable Results: Invisalign treatment involves planning with advanced 3D imaging technology, allowing you to preview your future smile and track your progress.
  • Effective Treatment: Invisalign is effective for correcting a wide range of orthodontic issues, including crowding, spacing, crossbite, overbite, and underbite.

The Invisalign Treatment Process:

The journey to a straighter smile begins with a consultation at Dentist on Colonial Drive. During this initial visit, we'll discuss your orthodontic needs and evaluate if Invisalign is the right choice for you. If you decide to proceed, we'll use a digital scanner to create precise 3D images of your teeth, which Invisalign will use to manufacture your custom aligners.


You'll wear each set of aligners for about two weeks before switching to the next set. Regular check-ups, typically every six weeks, will ensure your treatment is progressing as planned. The duration of the treatment varies depending on the individual but generally lasts between 9 to 18 months.


Who Can Benefit from Invisalign?

Invisalign is suitable for both teens and adults seeking a less noticeable, more comfortable alternative to traditional braces. It's ideal for those with mild to moderate orthodontic issues who are committed to wearing the aligners as prescribed (22 hours a day).

  • What is Invisalign, and how does it work?

    Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually straighten teeth without metal wires or brackets. Each aligner is custom-made to fit over your teeth and designed to move your teeth in small increments until the desired alignment is achieved.

  • How often should I visit Dentist on Colonial Drive for a general dental check-up?

    We recommend visiting Dentist on Colonial Drive every six months for a routine check-up and cleaning. Regular visits help us monitor your oral health and catch potential issues early, ensuring easier and less invasive treatments.

  • Can dental veneers fix crooked teeth?

    Yes, veneers can be used to correct minor misalignments, gaps, or uneven teeth. They are custom-made porcelain or composite resin shells that cover the front surface of teeth, providing a more aligned and aesthetically pleasing appearance.

  • What are the advantages of dental implants over dentures?

    Dental implants provide a permanent solution to tooth loss, offering greater stability and function compared to dentures. Implants are anchored into the jawbone, allowing for natural bone preservation and preventing the bone loss associated with missing teeth. They also feel and function more like natural teeth.

  • What should I do if I have a dental emergency?

    If you experience a dental emergency, such as severe pain, a broken tooth, or a tooth knocked out, contact Dentist on Colonial Drive immediately. We offer emergency dental services and will provide you with instructions on how to handle your situation until you can be seen by our dentist.

  • Are dental crowns or bridges better for replacing missing teeth?

    The choice between crowns and bridges depends on the extent of your dental needs. A bridge is used to fill a gap if you’re missing one or more teeth, anchored on either side by dental crowns. If you have a damaged or severely decayed tooth, a crown can be used to cover and protect it without replacing it.

  • How long does a typical root canal treatment take?

    A typical root canal treatment at Dentist on Colonial Drive can be completed in one or two visits, depending on the condition of the infected tooth. Each visit may last between 30 to 90 minutes.

  • What are the signs that I might need a root canal?

    You might need a root canal if you experience severe tooth pain, prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold, discoloration of the tooth, swelling and tenderness in the nearby gums, or a persistent or recurring pimple on the gums.

  • Is teeth whitening safe, and how long do the results last?

    Yes, when conducted by a professional, teeth whitening is safe and effective. At Dentist on Colonial Drive, we ensure that the whitening procedure is suited to your dental health. The results can last from six months to two years, depending on your habits and oral hygiene.

  • How do I care for my teeth after receiving crowns or bridges?

    After receiving crowns or bridges, continue practicing good oral hygiene. This includes brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and using an antiseptic mouthwash. It’s also important to avoid chewing hard foods that might damage the restoration. Regular check-ups at Dentist on Colonial Drive will help ensure that your crowns or bridges remain in good condition.
