Frequently Asked Questions
What happens after treatment?
Once your treatment is complete, we provide you with a custom retainer and a maintenance plan to ensure your smile stays beautiful for years.
Is Invisalign right for me?
Schedule a consultation with Dr. Patel to find out if Invisalign is the best option to achieve your smile goals.
Can I eat with Invisalign?
You should remove your aligners when eating or drinking anything other than water. Clean your teeth before reinserting your aligners to keep them fresh.
How often do I need appointments?
We typically schedule check-ups every 6-8 weeks to monitor your progress and provide new sets of aligners.
Will Invisalign affect my speech?
Most patients experience minimal speech changes that resolve within a few days as they adjust to wearing their aligners.
Is Invisalign painful?
Some mild discomfort is common when starting a new set of aligners, but this typically lasts only a few days. It’s a sign that your aligners are working to shift your teeth into place.
How often should I wear my aligners?
For the best results, wear your aligners for 20-22 hours a day, removing them only to eat, drink, or clean your teeth.
How do I clean my aligners?
Rinse your aligners with lukewarm water and gently brush them with a soft toothbrush. Avoid hot water, as it can warp the plastic.
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
On average, Invisalign treatment takes 12-18 months, but the exact duration depends on your unique needs and the extent of correction required.
How much does Invisalign cost?
The cost varies based on the complexity of your case. We accept most PPO insurance plans and offer flexible financing options to make Invisalign treatment affordable for you.
