Step 1

Book Your First
Consultation

First we will examine your smile to determine if Invisalign is right for you. Next, we will use the iTero scanner to create a 3D image of your smile and what it could look like with Invisalign treatment.

Step 2

Develop a Custom
Treatment Plan

Based on finding from your examination and your smile goals, we will map out an Invisalign treatment plan with timelines. Your plan will include the movement of your teeth to occur with each set of aligners.

Step 3

Start Your Custom
Treatment Plan

A series of custom aligners will be produced just for you. You will wear them each day, removing them to eat, drink, brush and floss. Throughout your treatment, the aligners will gradually reposition your teeth.

Step 4

Switch Your Aligners
Every Two Weeks

Approximately every 2 weeks, you will switch to the next set of clear aligners. You will also have brief checkups with your dental team – every six weeks or so – to review your treatment progress. 

Step 5

Maintain Your
Smile After Treatment

Completion of the treatment process is an exciting time! During your final appointment, we will discuss next steps, and prescribe retainers to keep your teeth in their new positions.
