How do I care for my aligners?

Remove your Invisalign aligners before eating or drinking anything except water. Brush and floss before reinserting them, and clean them daily with a soft toothbrush and clear, unscented soap or Invisalign cleaning crystals. Never use hot water, which can warp the aligners, and always store them in their case when not in use.

Attachments

Invisalign attachments are small, tooth-colored shapes temporarily bonded to selected teeth. They give the aligners extra grip and leverage to move or rotate teeth more precisely. Each attachment is customized to your treatment plan and may feel unusual at first, but most patients adjust quickly.

Definition of Invisalign® Terminology

With Invisalign® treatment, the patient will receive a series of aligner trays and swap out each one for the next one in the series every two weeks in order to gradually straighten the teeth.

ClinCheck® software allows professionals to map out the straightening process the patient’s teeth will go through with Invisalign® in great detail.

Incisal ridges are the portion of the crown of the tooth that makes up the incisal portion and can be a direct cause of overbite if they are extended too far.

Malocclusion is the condition in which the upper and lower teeth do not meet properly when the bite is closed. Conditions of malocclusion can include overbite, underbite, crossbite and open bite; all of which are treatable with Invisalign®.

Smart Track® Material

Smart Track® material is in Invisalign® aligners to increase comfort, improve control of movement, increases the speed of treatment and applies a gentle force to the teeth over time.

Vivera® retainers are a type of retainer that consists of clear plastic material and helps to maintain orthodontic corrections after a treatment.

The blue compliance indicator is a small blue dot on the aligners that will fade from blue to clear in order to indicate if the patient is wearing the aligner for the proper amount of time and where the patient is in the Invisalign® process.

The gum line is the line in the mouth where the teeth and gums meet. If a patient struggles with gum recession, then the gum tissue around the teeth may begin to wear away.

An iTero Element® scanner allows professionals to create a 3D image of the patient’s teeth in minutes and predict what it will take to move the teeth into proper alignment.

An overbite is a type of malocclusion that occurs when the upper teeth jut out over the lower teeth, covering them and causing other issues.

SmartForce attachments are small attachments that professionals place on the patient’s teeth before placing aligners to help move the teeth.

Smile-Scan analyzes the way a patient smiles by measuring the position of the mouth and eyes before giving a score.
