Carlsbad, North San Diego County – Invisalign® Orthodontic System
La Costa Dental Excellence provides an alternative to traditional braces – a system of virtually unnoticeable clear aligners that shift teeth into place gradually. These aligners fit snugly over the teeth and are gradually replaced with new ones as they move teeth into alignment. Our practice in North San Diego County offers patients the Invisalign® system for convenient, discreet orthodontic treatment.
Why Invisalign® ?
Invisalign® is a revolutionary system that offers multiple advantages over traditional metal braces. Patients come to our Carlsbad office in North County for Invisalign® instead of conventional braces due to the following benefits:
- Virtually invisible
- Removable (for eating, brushing, and flossing)
- Custom-made and more comfortable than braces
- Reduced risk of cavities
- Reduced risk of gum disease
- No allergic reactions from metal
- Results in six months to a year
How Invisalign® Works
Our North San Diego County dentists begin Invisalign® treatment by taking an impression of your teeth. We will produce a precise three-dimensional digital model from this impression. This model will be used to create a treatment plan featuring a series of clear, thin, mouth guards called aligners that gently shift your teeth into place. The Invisalign® aligners are manufactured from the model and are therefore custom-molded to fit your teeth.
You will wear a clear aligner at all times for the quickest treatment, removing it to eat, brush, and floss. Every two weeks, your aligner will be replaced with one that shifts your teeth slightly further into alignment. Patients are often ready to debut their straight smiles in six months to one year.
Candidates for the Invisalign® System
You may be a candidate for Invisalign® treatment if you have crooked teeth, gaps between your teeth, or teeth which overlap each other. As of now, only adults may receive Invisalign® treatment. To determine whether you are a viable candidate for Invisalign®, please schedule an appointment with our office in Carlsbad, North San Diego County. Invisalign® has been chosen by half a million people because of the distinct aesthetic and health advantages it holds over traditional metal braces.
