1. Come in for Your Smile Consultation
- At your first free consultation, we’ll assess the current state of your teeth and listen to the results you want.
- If Invisalign’s clear, removable aligners are the best solution to help you get the smile you want, we’ll discuss the financial options and treatment plans that best fit your situation.
2. Make a Plan
- Our Wedding Thompson Orthodontics team will take digital images and X-rays of your teeth and use these to create your treatment plan.
- Using a computerized program, Dr. Wedding and Dr. Thompson will design a personalized series of clear, comfortable, removable aligners that will shift your teeth in stages towards a beautifully straight smile.
3. Wear Your Almost-Invisible Braces
- After receiving your Invisalign aligners, you should wear them as much as possible, but you can easily remove them for eating, flossing, and brushing.
- You’ll visit our Owensboro office for check-ups every four to six weeks to get your new aligners and check your progress. These check-ups are generally quick and painless because you won’t have any wires to check or tighten.
Invisalign for Adults
Invisalign works well for Owensboro adults looking for a discrete treatment for a crooked smile or a misaligned bite. Invisalign aligners are custom-fitted clear plastic trays that are comfortable to wear and effectively invisible.
You'll wear the aligners for 20-22 hours each day—you can take them out to eat or for special events. As your teeth change and your smile improves, you'll switch your aligners according to Dr. Wedding and Dr. Thompson’s unique treatment plan.
Invisalign for Teens
Today's Owensboro teens are busier and more active than ever. Traditional braces sometimes do not work with their lifestyle, but your child still deserves a beautiful, healthy smile.
Whether your teen is extremely active with a hectic schedule or wants the aesthetic benefits of Invisalign, we can discuss if the Invisalign clear aligner system may be right for them with a free Invisalign consultation at Wedding Thompson Orthodontics.
Traditional Braces vs. Invisalign
When it comes to Invisalign treatment, there's a lot to consider. Most Invisalign patients at Wedding Thompson Orthodontics have shorter check-ups, fewer appointments, easier oral hygiene, and fewer emergency visits.
However, since the aligners are removable, your cooperation is essential for the aligners to be effective.
Since braces are attached to your teeth, they do the heavy lifting to keep your treatment progressing. With Invisalign, you need to do extra work so your trays can complete your treatment.
You'll need to manage your wear time, keep your aligners clean, and swap them out for the next aligner in the series. You must be sure you can commit to this before choosing Invisalign treatment.
Like traditional metal braces, Dr. Wedding and Dr. Thompson recommend wearing a retainer after your Invisalign treatment to maintain your new alignment and confident new smile.
