How Invisalign works

The Invisalign teeth straightening system is a modern form of orthodontics that shifts your teeth into their ideal position without the use of traditional metal brackets and wires. Each tooth is gradually moved through a series of aligners that are custom-designed and fabricated for your individual smile. Invisalign can be a great option for patients who have:

• Misaligned teeth
• Slight crowding
• Mild gaps between teeth
• Bite issues such as overbite or underbite

It is important to understand that Invisalign cannot be used to treat all orthodontic issues. More severe issues may need to be treated with traditional methods.

Patients love Invisalign because of its many benefits:

• A straighter smile without unsightly metal braces
• The custom-fitted clear aligners are made from a comfortable, BPA-free plastic that doesn’t poke your mouth or cause irritation
• You can eat whatever you want because the aligners are fully removable
• Taking care of your teeth is easy – no need to brush and floss around wires and brackets and no white spots are left on your teeth
• The treatment time is typically less than with traditional orthodontics – the average Invisalign treatment period is approximately one year
• It is easy to see your results as you go, and Dr. Koepsel can easily monitor your progress and make corrections mid-way through your treatment, if needed

Your customized Invisalign journey

The Invisalign process at East Wichita Dentist starts with a personalized consultation with Dr. David Koepsel. First, he will take the time to learn what you like and don’t like about your current smile and what your goals from the treatment are. He will also evaluate your teeth and overall oral health using a visual examination, as well as images of your mouth. Based on this information, Dr. Koepsel will recommend whether to proceed with Invisalign treatment, and if so, will use precise impressions of your teeth to create computer-generated images of what your results will look like after treatment — before you even begin your treatment! Your customized series of trays will be fabricated in the lab based on the treatment plans Dr. Koepsel provides. When they are ready, we will give them to you along with detailed instructions on how long to wear your aligners, how to take care of them, and how frequently to switch them out. As your treatment progresses, you will come into the office for periodic check-ups so that Dr. Koepsel can monitor your progress.
