What is Invisalign and how does it work?

Invisalign is a modern solution to teeth straightening that uses a series of clear, removable aligners customized for your teeth. These aligners are made of a virtually invisible plastic that you wear over your teeth. They gradually move your teeth into place, as planned by your dentist, without the metal wires and brackets of traditional braces.

Is Invisalign a suitable option for everyone?

Invisalign is suitable for most teens and adults who have mild to moderate alignment issues. However, it's important to have a consultation with our Poway-based dentists to determine if Invisalign is the best treatment for your specific dental needs. Factors like the complexity of your case and oral health will be considered.

How long does Invisalign treatment take?

The duration of Invisalign treatment varies depending on the individual’s dental alignment issues. Most patients can expect to wear their aligners for about 12 to 18 months, but you'll start seeing results in a few months. Our Poway dentists will provide a tailored treatment plan during your initial consultation.

Can I eat and drink while wearing Invisalign aligners?

Yes, one of the major benefits of Invisalign aligners is that they are removable. You can take them out while eating and drinking, which allows you to enjoy your favorite foods without restrictions. However, it's essential to brush your teeth and the aligners before reinserting them to maintain oral hygiene.

What are the care instructions for Invisalign aligners?

To care for your Invisalign aligners, rinse them every night and brush them gently with a toothbrush to keep them clean and hygienic. Avoid using hot water as it can warp the plastic. It’s important to also maintain regular dental check-ups to monitor your progress and receive new aligner sets as needed.

Invisalign® Basics

The first step to getting straight teeth and a healthy, beautiful smile is to schedule an appointment with our dentist and Invisalign® provider, Dr. Erela Katz Rappaport. During this consultation, Dr. Rappaport will examine your mouth to determine if you are a good candidate for this type of treatment. As Invisalign® has evolved over the past 25 years, it is now an appropriate treatment for many more types of patients – from those with minor misalignment issues to those with a more extensive overbite, underbite, crossbite, or open bite.

Our patients love that they can visualize exactly how their teeth will be moved throughout treatment. Due to Invisalign’s advanced software and virtual simulation capabilities, we can show you how your teeth will be repositioned – even what they will look like at the end of treatment! If we move forward with the process, the information we collect during this consultation will be used to make your precision aligners.
