Transparent teeth aligners are becoming a lot more popular as a better alternative to bracing for the purpose of straightening teeth. Due to the fact that they are not even close to traditional braces in terms of their appearances many people are in the dark on how the whole procedure does happen. Explained below is the procedure on invisalign Laguna Hills.
Before a person is accepted for the process, several tests are carried out and the results of these tests are recorded for referencing. Photographs of the face of clients, their teeth, impressions of face and teeth and also two x rays are the prime details that must be recorded. The client will then be booked for alignment with a set of instructions of how their teeth will be aligned.
The machine will scan the impressions to give a three dimensional model of teeth. The technician moves teeth stepwise in the model to the final position. The teeth movement is then reviewed by the orthodontists. Typically they come pretty close though sometimes fine detail instructions on how teeth movement should be are given. After the changes are made then the orthodontist does reviews once again. This may have to be done several times in order to get everything exactly as it is wanted.
Once the model has been completed, several aligners are made. It takes about four weeks from when the impressions were made for the aligners to be sent back to the dental unit. Once they are ready, the process of straightening can begin.
A client is instructed to don the trays for a period of two weeks each. The trays are made in a way that one tray aligns the teeth straighter than the previous. Teeth typically move a tenth millimeters per tray. So the next tray is expected to make teeth straighter. After two weeks you will find that your teeth have straightened more to match the shape of the tray.
The second option is moving the front teeth a little forward. One can also create more room to make some teeth skinnier. This procedure is referred to as interproximal reduction. It is not easily seen and fixes itself into the enamel of your teeth so that they do not become sensitive later.
Once the aligners are in then you will have wear them for the better part of the day. Their main merit is that they can be taken out when you have to eat . They are to be taken out for brushing and flossing too. The recommended hours for wearing them in day are approximately twenty hours.
Retainers come next after all aligner have been worn. Many people go for clear retainers which are plastic in nature rather than tray look alike. Some choose to have permanent ones on the inner aspect of front teeth of the lower jaw. This is usually a wire which goes across inner part of the six font teeth on the lower side. It all depends on the patient to choose what best suits them.
