Frequently Asked Questions

What is Invisalign, and how does it work?

Invisalign is a clear aligner system that gently shifts teeth into position using a series of custom, removable trays. At Arbor Oaks Dental & Orthodontics, a digital scan of your mouth is used to map out a personalized treatment plan so each aligner moves your teeth precisely.

How long do I need to wear Invisalign each day?

You should wear your Invisalign trays for approximately 20 to 22 hours each day, only taking them out to eat, drink, brush, and floss. Consistently wearing your aligners as advised is essential for effective treatment and achieving the best results.

Is Invisalign painful?

Most patients experience only mild discomfort, especially when switching to a new aligner. At Arbor Oaks Dental & Orthodontics, the smooth, BPA-free plastic of the trays helps minimize irritation, making the process more comfortable than traditional braces.

What types of orthodontic problems can Invisalign fix?

Invisalign can effectively treat a variety of orthodontic issues, including crowded teeth, gaps, overbites, underbites, and other common alignment problems. Its versatility makes it suitable for addressing many typical dental misalignments.

How often will I need to see the dentist during Invisalign treatment?

Treatment usually requires fewer in-office visits than traditional braces because you change aligners every 1–2 weeks and come in periodically so the team can monitor progress.

Will Invisalign affect how I eat and drink?

Because the aligners are removable, you can eat and drink whatever you like — just take them out when you eat, and brush and floss before putting them back in.

How do I clean my Invisalign aligners?

You remove your aligners to clean them. Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and mild, non-abrasive cleanser, then rinse with cool water to keep them clear and odor-free. (This is implied in how Invisalign works and how Arbor Oaks Dental & Orthodontics describes maintaining good oral hygiene with the system.)

How long does an Invisalign treatment usually take?

The duration depends on your specific alignment needs, but most patients complete their Invisalign treatment in a few months to a year. At Arbor Oaks Dental & Orthodontics, your customized treatment plan will include a timeline based on your scan and goals.

Will my Invisalign treatment be noticeable?

No — one of the main advantages of Invisalign is that the aligners are virtually invisible. This makes it a discreet option compared to traditional braces.

How much does Invisalign cost at Arbor Oaks Dental & Orthodontics?

Cost varies depending on the complexity of your case. Arbor Oaks Dental & Orthodontics offers flexible payment options and works with many insurance plans to make Invisalign more accessible.
