Are you struggling with spaced-out, misaligned, or overcrowded teeth in Miles City, Montanna? Welcome to Yerger Family Dental for Invisalign treatment—a modernized orthodontic system with the capabilities of metal braces but none of the hassle. Instead of metal wires and brackets, Invisalign treatment uses removable, transparent, customized trays to align your smile. Bid goodbye to unsightly metal braces that can’t be taken off and say hello to convenient, discreet, and comfortable Invisalign aligners.
A misaligned smile causes more than cosmetic concerns. Crooked teeth or bites diminish your chewing and speaking ability and put you at an increased risk of bruxism and TMJ disorder. Moreover, crooked teeth have “hidden spots” that are difficult to clean, increasing the risk of decay and gum disease.
Invisalign aligners effectively shift your teeth and bite to achieve optimal alignment. In the past, Invisalign was used to correct mild dental issues, but today, it’s as effective as traditional braces. We can use Invisalign to resolve:
Every patient’s Invisalign® treatment journey is unique. So, every potential Invisalign user must schedule a consultation with Invisalign dentists like Drs. Chase Yerger and Diana Stewart. The initial exam aims to examine your teeth and bite and understand your smile goals to create a personalized treatment plan.
Although the design of Invisalign trays is complex, the actual process of Invisalign treatment is straightforward. After the initial consultation, and you decide to perfect your smile with Invisalign, we’ll digitally scan your teeth to create a 3D rendering of your smile. Then, we’ll use sophisticated Invisalign software to determine when and how your teeth move at every stage.
You’ll receive a set of aligners, usually 18-30, depending on the complexity of your case. Wear your aligners for at least 20 hours daily, only removing them when eating or brushing your teeth. This means you should sleep with your aligners on. Don’t worry! Our Invisalign aligners are comfortable, so you won’t notice their presence when sleeping.
Every two weeks, you’ll switch your current aligners to the next in line. This pattern will continue until you achieve the intended outcome, usually after 12-18 months. Once you complete your treatment, we’ll give you a retainer to preserve your hard-worn results.
Invisalign is a convenient orthodontic system that doesn’t disrupt your lifestyle or oral hygiene. These are the top benefits of Invisalign treatment.
Although Invisalign has transformed millions of smiles, not everyone is a suitable candidate. So, to understand whether Invisalign is right for you, please call (406) 233-1241 to schedule an appointment with Yerger Family Dental.
We can’t wait to give you the straight, beautiful smile you’ve always wanted.
