Invisalign® offers several advantages over traditional braces. The clear aligners are virtually invisible, making them a discreet option for teens and adults. They’re removable, allowing easy eating, brushing, and flossing—no food restrictions or tricky cleaning around brackets. Invisalign® aligners are smooth and comfortable, with no metal wires to irritate the mouth. Treatment is often shorter and more predictable, thanks to advanced digital planning and customized aligners that gently shift teeth into place.

How Invisalign® Treatment Works
Consultation & Exam: You’ll first come in for an initial consultation at Smoky Mountain Dental, where we will assess your oral health and confirm you are a good candidate for Invisalign®.
Impressions & Treatment Planning: Once we have images or molds of your teeth, we will partner with Invisalign® to develop a personalized treatment plan for gradually shifting your teeth into the correct position, typically taking six months to a year and a half.
Receiving Your Custom Aligners: When crafted, you will receive a series of clear plastic aligners tailored to your treatment plan. You will wear each aligner for around two weeks before switching out for the next.

Your Invisalign® Treatment Timeline
Wearing the Aligners: Invisalign® aligners are worn 22 hours daily, and they should be removed only for eating, drinking, and oral hygiene.
Ongoing Checkups: During your treatment, you’ll return to Smoky Mountain Dental every five to six weeks so we can monitor your progression and make any necessary adjustments.
Finishing Treatment: Once you have worn the entire series of aligners, your teeth should be in the correct alignment as planned. If additional alignment is still needed, we will recommend the next steps.
FAQ
-
Is Invisalign® better than traditional braces?
-
Can I talk normally while wearing Invisalign® aligners?
Yes, most people can talk normally while wearing Invisalign®, though you may experience a slight lisp when you first start wearing the aligners. This happens because your tongue is adjusting to the presence of the trays. This usually stops within a few days.
-
What issues does Invisalign® correct?
Invisalign® helps with a variety of alignment issues, such as gaps, teeth crowding, overbite and underbite, and crossbite. However, more complex cases may require additional orthodontic treatment. During your consultation, we will determine if Invisalign® will work for your needs.
