How Invisalign Works
Step 1
Consultation Appointment
When you come for your initial consultation at Solar Orthodontics, you’ll notice right away that we are patient-focused and value open communication between the patient and the orthodontist. We will show you a 3D scan model of your teeth and the possible outcomes after treatment. Together we will discuss your orthodontic options and decide whether or not Invisalign treatment is right for you. At this time any questions that you have about the procedure, costs, and aftercare will be addressed.
Step 2
Customized Treatment Plan From Your Invisalign Coquitlam Provider
It’s time for Dr. Dernisky to utilize her skills in creating an efficient, custom treatment plan to give your mouth a healthy, optimal smile. Don’t worry, you get to sit back and relax during this part; let us do the work.
Step 3
Start Wearing Your Clear Aligners
Your aligners will arrive, and we will make an appointment to place your attachments to show you what to do during treatment. All you have to do is wear them, with the ease of removing them to eat, brush, and floss
Advance Every 5-7 Days
Every 5-7 days, you’ll simply switch out to a new set of clear aligners, which will work to gradually shift your teeth into place. Check in with your Solar Orthodontics team about every six weeks so that we can evaluate and monitor your treatment progress and make adjustments accordingly.
Reveal A New You
Ideally, we like to finish all our treatments in under a year. At Solar Orthodontics, we don’t want any surprise costs at the end of your treatment, which is why we include 1 year of retainers in our fees. Retainers are worn at nighttime only and for the rest of your life (only if you don’t want your teeth to move).
Step 4
Advance Every 5-7 Days
Every 5-7 days, you’ll simply switch out to a new set of clear aligners, which will be working to gradually shift your teeth into place. Our Invisalign Virtual Treatment Monitoring system will allow you to change trays every 7 days and take photos from the comfort of your home for monitoring. Our team is available to evaluate and monitor your treatment progress and make adjustments accordingly.
