What are the benefits of Invisalign?

Invisalign is so popular in San Francisco because of the many benefits patients experience as they achieve the straight, beautiful smile they always wanted. Benefits include the following:

Invisalign is a more convenient teeth-straightening method than braces
Invisalign aligners are removable, making eating and activities easier
The Invisalign system is more comfortable than braces
Aligners are transparent and make a more attractive choice than braces
Aligners can be removed for 2-4 hours a day
Invisalign costs are comparable to braces
Requires no food or sports restrictions
A straight, beautiful smile often results in improved self-confidence

An Advanced Alternative to Traditional Braces

Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that straightens your teeth using a series of clear, plastic aligners, instead of the metal wires and rubber bands that come with traditional braces. As long as you wear your prescribed aligners for at least 22 hours each day, Invisalign will work to gradually move your teeth to a straighter position.

Your set of custom aligners will be designed for discretion and comfort in equal measure, so your dental wear won’t impact your daily routine. Invisalign can be taken out for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing, and the average person won’t be able to tell that you’re undergoing the treatment thanks to the clear design.

Since Invisalign is an electronic-based treatment, you’ll know exactly what to expect and how long you’ll need to wear your orthodontic aligners. Conventional metal braces are less predictable, and can sometimes lead to unforeseen issues. Invisalign avoids these unpleasant surprises, so you can feel comfortable and secure.

Am I a candidate for Invisalign in San Francisco?

You may be a candidate for Invisalign in San Francisco with Dr. Samadian if you struggle with crooked teeth, an overbite, an underbite, or another orthodontic issue but are not interested in traditional metal braces.

Invisalign can also be used to protect your gums and reduce the risk of gum disease. Since the creation of Invisalign in 1997, it has been the preferred treatment for teens and adults who require orthodontic teeth alignment.

What Does Invisalign Involve?

Using in-house 3D printing technology and advanced digital scanners, Dr. Samadian will select the best treatment and design your custom aligners. His commitment to state-of-the-art equipment means he can design your treatment around your ideal results and visualize your preferred outcome for you ahead of time.

Imagery and Scanning

Once Dr. Samadian and his team decide that you’re a good candidate for Invisalign in San Francisco, they will take images of your teeth and face, as well as x-rays and a digital scan of your mouth. These will all be utilized to design a set of custom aligners made specifically for your teeth.

Gradual Progress

After your custom aligners have been designed, you’ll wear each set for two weeks at a time, for at least 22 hours a day. Each set of aligners is designed to gradually straighten your teeth, moving them into position at a rate of about 2/10mm per aligner.

Ongoing Hygiene

As with traditional metal braces, you’ll need to ensure that you maintain exceptional oral hygiene while using Invisalign. It’s a good idea to wash and brush them every day, just like your own teeth, to prevent the buildup of any bacteria.

Maintaining Your Smile

Once you’ve achieved your ideal results, Dr. Samadian’s team will ask that you wear a retainer while you sleep to prevent your teeth from shifting back to their original positions, so you can preserve your impressive results.

Picking Your Retainer

While some patients prefer clear plastic retainers that are reminiscent of their Invisalign aligners, others may choose to receive a permanent retainer fixed on the inside of their lower front teeth.

The Invisalign Experience

When you begin using each new set of orthodontic aligners, you may feel a little soreness and discomfort as your mouth gets used to the new aligner. Fortunately, this discomfort is short-lived and will fade in a few days as your teeth and mouth adjust.
