Invisalign® straightens teeth to give you the confidence of a great smile. Using a series of clear aligners, Invisalign gently and gradually moves your teeth based on the treatment plan prescribed by Dr. Conroy. There are no wires or brackets so you’ll have confidence in your smile during and after treatment. In fact, most people won’t even know you’re wearing Invisalign. Invisalign aligners are removable so you can eat whatever you want and easily brush and floss as you normally would.
You’ll visit Dr. Conroy every 6 weeks and on average Invisalign treatment takes less than a year.
How often do I need to wear my Invisalign aligners?
It is recommended that you wear your aligners for 20-22 hours per day and only remove them for eating or drinking, brushing and flossing.
Will wearing Invisalign aligners affect my speech?
Invisalign aligners may temporarily affect the speech of some people and you may have a slight lisp for a day or two. However, as you get used to having aligners in your mouth, any lisp caused by the aligners should disappear.
Does insurance cover Invisalign?
Because dental benefits differ from policy to policy, you should review your personal coverage plan and check with your insurance provider. In general, if a patient has orthodontic coverage, Invisalign should be covered to the same extent as conventional braces.
Does Invisalign really work?
Yes. Over 1.5 million patients with a wide variety of dental challenges have been treated with Invisalign. Invisalign is not only available at Nicollet Station Dental, but is also used at dental practices worldwide.
