What You Need to Know About Invisalign Treatment in Edmonton

124th Street Dental Team3 min read

If you've been thinking about straightening your smile, Invisalign offers a comfortable, discreet, and effective alternative to traditional braces. We offer Invisalign clear aligner therapy in Edmonton for teens and adults seeking a straighter, healthier smile.

How Invisalign Works

Invisalign uses a series of custom-crafted, virtually invisible clear aligners to gradually and comfortably straighten your teeth, with no wires, brackets, or dietary restrictions. Most people won't notice you are wearing Invisalign, thanks to the virtually invisible aligner design. Invisalign aligners are removable, making it easy to maintain your oral hygiene and eat the foods you enjoy. Invisalign offers the benefit of faster results compared to traditional braces for many patients.

The Invisalign Process at Our Clinic

Our Invisalign process begins with a smile assessment and consultation, where we evaluate your teeth, bite, and smile goals to determine if Invisalign is right for you. We use precise 3D digital scanning for digital impressions, replacing physical moulds and often providing a digital preview of your end results the same day. After digital scans, your custom aligners are precision-manufactured to move your teeth incrementally toward your final smile. When your teeth reach their ideal position, we supply a custom retainer to ensure your new smile stays in place.

What to Expect from an Invisalign Consultation

Our Invisalign consultations and treatment are provided by. Ray Basi. During your initial visit, we will discuss your goals, take digital scans, and may show you a digital preview of your expected results right away. A full orthodontic consultation includes photos, x-rays, and digital records to determine the best treatment plan for your goals.

Wearing and Caring for Invisalign

You should remove your aligners when eating or drinking anything besides water to protect them from staining and damage. Most patients find Invisalign comfortable, though some experience mild pressure when switching to a new set of aligners, which usually fades within a day or two. Regular appointments during Invisalign treatment allow us to confirm your teeth are tracking correctly and adjust your treatment as needed.

Retention After Invisalign

After treatment, a retainer is essential for maintaining your smile and preventing relapse. We provide a custom retainer and explain how long it should be worn to protect your new smile.

Invisalign for Teens and Adults

Invisalign is suitable for both teens and adults. Invisalign Teen is available for younger patients, with compliance indicators and extra aligners in case of loss. We also offer traditional braces for those who prefer or need a different orthodontic approach.

Transparent Pricing and Insurance

We provide transparent pricing for all orthodontic services, with clear estimates upfront and compliance with the ADA fee guide. We accept direct insurance billing and most major providers for your Invisalign treatment.
