Invisalign® Teeth Straightening Tucker, GA

Teeth that are straight and properly aligned are not only attractive, but they're also better for your oral health. An improper bite and crooked teeth can lead to bigger dental problems that are uncomfortable and may require expensive procedures to repair. Our MINT dentistry professionals are pleased to offer the Invisalign clear teeth aligners system for individuals in Tucker, GA. Custom-made to gently and comfortably meet your cosmetic goals, Invisalign clear aligners are considered to be more attractive and comfortable compared to metal braces. Being able to remove them makes brushing, flossing, and eating much easier. If you're excited about the idea of getting a smile that's both healthy and beautiful, schedule an orthodontic consultation with an Invisalign dentist at MINT dentistry. Our premier facility in Tucker, GA uses advanced dental tools, techniques, and technology, like Invisalign treatment, to help you obtain an attractive, vibrant smile you'll love.

There are many factors that can determine the alignment of your teeth: sucking your thumb as a child, genetics, missing one or several teeth, or an injury to your jaw. Teeth misalignment may cause other oral health problems, such and overbite or crossbite, worn enamel, trouble chewing and speaking, toothaches, and TMD (temporomandibular joint disorder). If your MINT dental team notices early signs of one of these issues during your dental exam, we might suggest Invisalign clear aligners treatment.

Invisalign treatment can be great for teens and adults in Tucker, GA who would like straighter teeth without the hassle and appearance of traditional metal orthodontics. Even though your trays should be worn at least 20 hours a day, they can be removed before eating, to brush your teeth, for special events, and when playing sports. Far more discreet than metal braces, most people won't know that you're wearing Invisalign trays.

Your custom Invisalign trays will be made from digital impressions taken at our MINT dentistry office. We'll have you return to our office to receive your first set of aligners and specific care instructions from your dentist. You'll need to wear your aligners for 20 – 22 hours each day for the process to work, with the goal of only taking them out to brush your teeth and eat. Every 7 – 14 days, you'll switch to your next set of aligners in your custom Invisalign aligners series as they gradually move your teeth into their proper position. It's important that you attend appointments every 4 – 6 weeks so our Invisalign provider can check your tooth movement. We'll also take digital impressions during these visits so new sets of teeth aligners can be crafted. The length of time that you'll need to wear Invisalign aligners will depend on your orthodontic needs and goals, but most individuals undergo Invisalign teeth straightening for an average of one year.

Once your bite is aligned, and you've worn your last set of aligners, it's crucial to make sure your teeth stay in their new position. Invisalign Vivera® retainers are specially made to hold your teeth in place after you complete your orthodontic treatment. Each retainer is custom-made at the Invisalign dental laboratory based on digital impressions taken after your teeth have reached their position. Your Invisalign dentist will tell you when to wear your retainers and provide instructions for care once they arrive at our Tucker, GA practice. We'll continue to check your teeth alignment and bite when you visit MINT dentistry for routine dental examinations.

Depending on your benefits, a portion of your Invisalign teeth straightening cost might be covered by your dental insurance company. Our front office will confirm your specific policy coverage and determine your remaining bill. MINT dentistry in Tucker, GA is happy to accept many different payment choices to cover any out-of-pocket expenses or if you aren't using insurance. During your initial consultation, we'll discuss cost estimates and options for making your Invisalign treatment more affordable, including flexible payment plans and medical financing. It's important to keep in mind that a confident smile is an invaluable asset. MINT dentistry is devoted to helping you achieve this goal in an affordable fashion.

If you or your teen wish to achieve a straight, healthy smile without the look of metal braces, schedule a consultation at MINT dentistry in Tucker, GA to get more information on the Invisalign teeth straightening system. Our Invisalign dentist will develop your custom orthodontic treatment plan during your consultation and start you on the path to a healthy, beautiful smile.
