Camarillo Dentist Explains the Invisalign Process

Get you best invisalign smile!

The process of straightening your teeth at Camarillo Smiles using the Invisalign system is relatively easy. It starts with a free consultation where we talk about your individual smile. Whether you have crowding, gaps, or an over-bite, we discuss how we can give you the smile you've always wanted.  We start off by creating an initial mold of your teeth, we take some photographs and performing a comprehensive exam of your mouth. We then design your custom Invisalign aligners. With the help of some amazing 3D technology, we determine where your teeth need to be and then divide up the journey into small incremental steps to create a series of aligners that each leads the teeth closer to their final destination. No two smiles are alike, and each custom series of Invisalign aligners meets the unique requirements of each individual patient. A certified Invisalign lab then fabricates the clear aligners. Once you receive your aligners, simply wear each pair for about two weeks, then move on to the next set in your series. Most patients require 12 – 30 sets of the clear plastic aligners, worn over the course of approximately 6-18 months to achieve straight teeth and an improved smile.  Invisalign aligners can be removed when eating, drinking, brushing and flossing.
