Prosper & Melissa Invisalign

The Invisible Option for Teeth Straightening in Prosper

At Bietsch Orthodontics, we see patients of all ages who are concerned with the appearance of their teeth. If you are adamantly against wearing traditional braces as an adult, know that you’re not alone. That’s why we offer Invisalign; an invisible, removable, and comfortable acrylic tray that can correct misaligned teeth in less than 2 years (in most cases). You can carry on your normal routines while correcting your teeth without anyone knowing you are wearing an oral appliance, and because they are removable, you can eat, drink, brush, and floss like normal with little to no pain and discomfort.

Should I Get Invisalign?

If you are concerned about the appearance of your teeth but don’t want to wear traditional braces, we want to help. We’ll gladly listen to your concerns and answer any questions about our treatment options with Invisalign.

Invisalign is especially effective for patients with the following conditions:

• Overbites
• Open bites
• Underbites
• Rotated or crooked teeth
• Crowded teeth
• Excessive spacing between teeth (gapped teeth)

What to Expect

Once we determine you’re a candidate for Invisalign, we’ll take photographs of your smile (from several angles), digital X-rays, and an impression of your teeth. After it’s sent to the lab, we’ll create a set of custom aligners molded perfectly to your teeth. Dr. Bietsch will have you come in for follow-up appointments as your teeth change position and provide you with the next stage of your treatment and newly made set of aligners.

During your treatment planning session, we’ll determine how long you need to wear the Invisalign products to realign your teeth. You will typically visit our office every 4 to 6 weeks (as needed for adjustments) during the course of treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions About Invisalign

How Long Will it Take for Invisalign to Straighten My Teeth?

The amount of time needed for Invisalign to straighten your teeth can vary, depending on the complexity of the case. Some of the factors that will influence the timeline include:

• The patient's oral hygiene habits
• Tooth alignment
• The severity of gaps in between teeth
• Crowded teeth

Is Invisalign painful?

Most patients report only mild discomfort during the first few days of wearing a new set of aligners. This discomfort typically subsides quickly.

How often should I wear my Invisalign aligners?

Invisalign aligners should be worn for 20-22 hours per day, and should only be removed for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.

How do I clean my Invisalign aligners?

Invisalign aligners should be cleaned daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush and lukewarm water. Do not use hot water or toothpaste, as this can damage the aligners.

Can I eat and drink while wearing my Invisalign aligners?

No, you should remove your Invisalign aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water. This will help to prevent damage to the aligners and ensure that they remain clean and hygienic.

Will Invisalign affect my speech?

Most patients adjust to speaking with Invisalign aligners within a few days. However, some patients may experience a temporary lisp or other speech changes during the initial adjustment period.
