The Invisalign method makes it possible to correct misaligned teeth discreetly and effectively. This is done by fitting transparent aligners\u2014which are usually made of plastic\u2014to the teeth. The aligners are removable and are replaced every two weeks. This allows you to see, step by step, how you\u2019re getting closer to your dream of a perfect smile. Since you can remove the aligners while eating, exercising, and brushing your teeth, they\u2019re easier to care for than traditional braces. But what treatment steps and procedures can you expect if your dentist recommends Invisalign? <\/p>\n
Following a detailed consultation with Prof. Jonke, a presentation of the treatment plan at our practice, and a scan of your teeth using an intraoral scanner, a digital 3D model of your teeth will be created. This allows us to calculate the individual steps required to achieve the desired tooth alignment. Based on this 3D representation, Univ.-Prof. DDr. med. Erwin Jonke plans your treatment.<\/p>\n
Once you have approved the treatment plan, your aligners will be custom-made for you. The number of aligners produced depends on the severity and type of your misalignment. After about two weeks, you\u2019ll receive your first set of custom-made aligners. When you pick them up, so-called attachments (adhesive dots) will be bonded to specific teeth; these help guide tooth movement and secure your aligners in place. <\/p>\n
The aligners are customized step by step to fit your treatment plan. Depending on Prof. Jonke\u2019s treatment plan, each set of aligners should be worn day and night for approximately two weeks (at least 22 hours per day). The aligners should only be removed for oral hygiene, eating, drinking, or special occasions. After two weeks, you can simply switch to the next set on your own. Your cooperation as a patient and adherence to the recommended wearing times are just as important for successful treatment with the Invisalign system as your regular follow-up appointments! <\/p>\n
The duration of treatment naturally varies from case to case, but in most cases, treatment with the Invisalign method leads to the desired result\u2014your radiant smile\u2014within one to two years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
