So if you come in and we determine you are candidate for Invisalign, what we do is have to take special impressions of your teeth. We mail those impressions to Invisalign, and based on the treatment plan that I came up with from you from our clinical exam, and from the photos and X-rays, I will sit down and type up a detailed treatment plan of exactly how I want your teeth to move.
Invisalign will create digital models and that's what you see here on screen. Nothing has been done. This is the initial model the way you came into our office. I will scroll through this case with a patient. And I can rotate this to the side; and you will notice the bite is off. I can spin it around to the other side and look at it this way. I can also spin it around from the back and look at the bite from the back. I can look at the upper arch independently and you can see how significant the crowding is in the upper arch. I can do the same by looking at the lower arch and flipping that down.
These are how your teeth look initially. You'll see the progression of treatment, as well as the end result. And you can see the teeth aligning. The bite is starting to open up, if you just look at the front. Then in the end, if I pan to the side, and I'll show you how her teeth fit together, and they fit together beautifully on the side. You can look at it from the frontal view. The midlines are corrected and even, as we like to see. The bite relationship here in the front is perfect. And if we look at the other side, her bite relationship is normal and corrected as well, so everything fits well.
So what you see a lot of times on the computer is not really exactly what's taking place inside the mouth. There is some variation. The thing I can tell you today about Invisalign, is it is much more accurate than what it was back in 2002 when I was first trained on it.
Typically, in an Invisalign case there are attachments that go on the teeth, and what attachments are, are little tooth colored composite buttons, I call them, or bumps, that we put on the teeth; and those bumps are determined by movements that we need to place in those teeth when we do the treatment plan. Not all teeth get them but some do.
One thing that's interesting about Invisalign, is it works by pushing teeth. So we can't really pull teeth, or move teeth in any other dimension other than by pushing them. So these attachments that go on the teeth have flat plains and the aligners push against those planes, and cause the movements that we need in those teeth. I rarely do attachments on the first aligner. I'll often do on aligner number four. Initially, I want patients to get used to wearing the aligners, taking them in and out, get used to the comfort at the aligner, and just dealing with that on a daily basis. Once the attachments go on on aligner four, oftentimes they're little harder to take on and off and they fit a little bit snugger. Teeth tend to be a little more sore at that time because teeth are moving a little bit more, and you know just a little more to get used to, so I don't want to overwhelm anybody at the beginning.
I tell all of our patients that many cases have to have at least one to two refinements, and a refinement is where we kind of detail and finish the case. At refinements, we will take all the little bumps off the teeth, take new impressions of the teeth, send it back in to Invisalign, and tell them exactly what we want to detail in the finish. Fortunately, I've had some cases that never need a refinement and they finish beautifully. But, especially in severe rotations and other movements that are more difficult, things may not be together exactly the way you want them, and those cases would require a refinement.

I got Invisalign 2 months ago. I can't wait till it's done 😃
Surviving as Mom how much cost?
Ali Jee it varies depending on your specific case.
Ali Jee it varies between 3k-7k
B.Y.V Madison in pakistan rupees how much? plz
How did it go?
I just got my braces. I'm on the 3rd day and already seeing results. This video was informative and now I know what I'm in for. Nice in the beginning, then hard times, but the end will be worth it.
hey , did u finish
Invisalign is so powerful and will help with almost all cases. There is no such a thing called candidate for Invisalign. Orthodontists should be honest with everyone and respect their choice.
Have you had it
You’re misinformed and you’re spreading your misinformation. Invisalign is not for every case.
The first dentist I went to said that I didn't qualify for Invisalign, the second one said that I did lol
Yes there is such thing dentists should know if your problem is for invisalign or braces or for none of them. It's a heavy procedure no joke
I'm on my last tray (17 trays, 6 month run), will be finished next week. 12yrs ago, I've worn braces and afterwards slacked on wearing the evening retainer... don't make this mistake, I know I can't afford to, lol.. Now, even though my "correction" wasn't major, I still opted to do this and pay $5,200 (which seem a bit much considering it was only 17 trays, but no biggie). The issue is, I only did this, because I strived perfection and expected "perfection"... and I'm not sure we got there exactly, therefore today I've scheduled an appointment with an orthodontist to get a 2nd opinion for next week, after this last tray settles over the next 4-5 days. Let's see how it goes boys and girls!
5,200 for 17 trays! Wow your lucky I had to pay 8000 for 20 trays-
Hmm.. so hear me out; My 17 trays could’ve cost 3,500 to 9,000 - depending on the add-ons and/or additional amenities chosen, and depending on what other services had to be performed. Same thing with you, depending on your case, maybe you got a fair price, but perhaps you got ripped off...? Not to jump to conclusions. If you’re still making payments, and you have been in fact overcharged (as dentists do collect a hefty commissions/split with Invisalign, and the more you pay, the larger their payout) - you should most definitely dispute it. Good luck!
@@kristenfilppu6757 I had to pay $10,000 for 21 trays what the hell bruh
@@r0z1n88 I think it all depends on the orthodontist you go to, they rank invisalign providers based on bronze to diamond, It's all about the degree they hold I guess.
You only had a 6 month treatment?
i’m getting mine for free since my sister is a orthodontist
lucky bish
omg your so blessed as in lucky wow congrats!
My mok could get me a discount but she would rather pay the full price.. Ur really lucky
The video was informative I figure the attachments had something to do with the movement of the teeth. Thanks for the video.
I got invisalign yesterday its super painful at the moment
Grace H how much cost?
Ali Jee I'm not really sure. My parents are paying for me. It's more expensive than normal braces tho. Worth it tho!
Here in Holland it cost me 2100 euros all inclusive for a lite case.
Lucky!! How are they now?
Why painful?
People in the comments are talking about being nearly done with their treatment,, I was told i'd have to wear mine forever. The first month is the most important, but sometime after that I can begin only wearing it at night. Am I the only one who has to wear mine forever? O_o
My dentist put just 4 attachments and said to wear my 7 sets in 70 days. And I won’t see him for 70 days. Is that the norms? I just started it about a week ago and do not feel any pressure or discomfort. My only discomfort is taking them off. My finger nails already broken 😞

Hello Doctor, I've heard a few orthodontist claim that Invisalign can also treat gummy smile + deepbite to some extent by pushing the upper incisors upwards overtime.
Do you think that's true?
I'd really appreciate your expert insight on this. Thank you.
I have buttons on my top front right incisor. But they fell off because the tooth is actually a crown. Is that going to be an issue?
it costed me less than 1000 , my dr is great , My teth are looking better, wait and see
What did you have and when did you get them
@@emoney1377 I have invinsiliners ( sorry for my english) , i have had them for 5 months now
No more moulds haha
What to do if my front 2 teeths are moving little bit?
Get retainers.
bazen insanin tek derdi dis ola biliyor
that extreme moment they put something look like doh in your mouth n you can't breath well like dead fish 😂 so for the broken grammar n so well²
What does it do?
orthodontists charge 3x they charge for the lab. dentist will charge about 50% - 100% more. I was going to be charged $5000 by an ortho. My dentist is charging me $3200.......
dude, where do u live? i got charged $5000 as well, and i am looking for a cheaper price
You are "the Healer" and need appliances to heal your occlusion?
By the way, orthodontists are dentists too.
smileclub
its too much expensive
go with smileclub online, its 60% cheaper.
Devin Wong can u send m link
Moneytreeenterprise W yea that’s the place to get your teeth fucked up. Cheap things comes with consequences. Their reviews are sooo bad and people complain a lots no X-ray no 3D scans of teeth. u just do the mouth impression at home and send to them. Then they make the aligners. I’d surely go with Invisalign. Though it’s expensive but it’s damn worth it
@@ahmedladan6967 What? no, I've used Smileclub, mine are perfectly fine. I dont know about others and their teeth.
Is invisalign ok for patient who has undergone fixed bridge?
Yes . That was me
sorry
Invisalign will interfere with your life in a major way! Do your research! btw, why does she need invisalign, oh cuz the dentist needs her money.
Devin Wong what about normal braces?
no it does not its so easy and smooth stop whining
