The Invisalign Treatment Process

Invisalign clear aligners can help straighten teeth in just 5 steps.

Step 1

Book Your First
Consultation

Your dentist will speak to you about how Invisalign clear aligners could help correct your issue, then examine your smile and take images of your teeth and bite. They will then determine if Invisalign is right for you.

Step 2

Develop a Treatment
Timeline

Once we've decided that Invisalign is right for you, we will map out a timeline for your treatment. Your plan will include the exact movement of your teeth to occur with each set of aligners.

Step 3

Start Your Custom
Treatment Plan

We will have a series of custom Invisalign clear aligners created just for you. You will wear them each day, removing them to eat, drink, brush and floss. Over time, you will notice a change in your smile.

Step 4

Switch Your Aligners
Every Two Weeks

You will need to change to your new aligners every two or so weeks as treatment progresses. You will also have brief checkups with your dental team – every six weeks or so – to review your progress. 

Step 5

Maintain Your
Smile After Treatment

You've reached the end of your treatment plan! During your final appointment, we will discuss the next steps, and prescribe retainers that you will need to wear at night to keep your teeth in their new positions.
