How long does Invisalign treatment take?

Invisalign treatment typically takes between 12 to 18 months, but the exact duration depends on the complexity of your case. Some patients start seeing results in just a few weeks. During your consultation, we’ll provide an estimated timeline based on your unique needs.

Is Invisalign painful?

Invisalign is generally not painful, but you may experience mild discomfort or pressure when switching to a new set of aligners. This is a sign that the aligners are working to shift your teeth into place and usually subsides after a few days.

How often do I need to wear my aligners?

For optimal results, you should wear your aligners for 20 to 22 hours a day. They should only be removed for eating, drinking (anything other than water), brushing, and flossing.

Can I eat and drink with Invisalign?

You should remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water. This helps prevent staining or damage to the aligners. After eating, brush your teeth before putting the aligners back in to maintain hygiene.

Will Invisalign affect my speech?

Invisalign aligners may cause a slight lisp when you first start wearing them, but this typically goes away as your tongue adjusts. Most patients find their speech returns to normal within a few days.
