Invisalign® can treat most orthodontic issues, including:
In more serious cases, Dr. Gies will recommend traditional orthodontic treatment with metal braces.
There are numerous benefits when it comes to choosing Invisalign® clear aligners over traditional metal braces:
Investing in Invisalign® isn’t just about investing in a more beautiful smile; it’s about investing in a healthier smile.
Treatment with Invisalign® at Gies Family Dental begins with an in-depth examination of your teeth and the cause of your misalignment. During this examination, Dr. Gies may discover that traditional orthodontics is the better option for you. However, once you and Dr. Gies settle on a treatment plan, he will custom-make your Invisalign® trays.
You will return to our office once every three weeks to receive your next set of aligners and to make sure that your treatment plan is progressing as it should be. If Dr. Gies needs to make any adjustments or you have any concerns about your treatment, they will be addressed at your appointment.
It’s quite likely that you’re a candidate for Invisalign®. While more serious orthodontic work will require treatment with traditional metal braces, most people can be successfully treated with Invisalign®.
It is important to note that successful treatment with Invisalign® requires a great deal of patient compliance, meaning it may not be the best choice for everyone. You must wear your aligners for a minimum of 22 hours per day, and this should be factored in when considering whether or not Invisalign is right for you.
Many dental insurances will contribute to Invisalign® treatment, but this will depend on your specific insurance plan. To learn more about whether or not your insurance will cover or contribute to your treatment, talk to our staff to help you determine what your plan will cover. We are also proud to partner with CareCredit to give you affordable payment plans so that you can have the treatment you need.
