West Allis, Wisconsin: Griffin Orthodontics is pleased to announce it offers Invisalign treatment to its patients. This treatment option is a great alternative to traditional orthodontics because it allows individuals to achieve a straighter, more attractive smile without having to wear traditional metal braces.
Invisalign treatment uses a set of clear aligners that are virtually invisible. With Invisalign, the team at Griffin Orthodontics can provide Invisalign, as well as options, including Invisalign Lite and Invisalign First, to come up with a treatment plan that meets a patient’s individual needs.
With Invisalign, a patient will get a set of clear aligners that fit comfortably over their teeth. By applying consistent pressure over time, the teeth gently move into the appropriate position. Typically, a patient will receive a series of aligners, with each fitting snugly and making a new adjustment until the desired position is reached. Invisalign can address many of the same concerns as traditional orthodontics, including crossbites, underbites, overbites, open bites, gapped teeth, overcrowding and even rotated teeth.
Invisalign can be prescribed to treat cases of mild to even complex misalignment in the teeth. However, it’s important to realize Invisalign may not be the right treatment option for every dental problem. When working with the team at Griffin Orthodontics, they can help decide if Invisalign is the right option and if so, come up with a plan to meet one’s individual needs. After determining an individual is a good candidate for Invisalign, the team at Griffin Orthodontics will create 3D digital images of the patient’s teeth and use these images to begin creating the Invisalign trays, which will then be used in the treatment process.
