What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is a set of clear, removable plastic trays (aligners) custom-made to fit your teeth. You wear each one for about a week or two, then move to the next in the series, and each tray nudges your teeth a little closer to where they should be. Because the trays are clear and sit snugly over your teeth, most people won’t notice you’re wearing them.
It works well for the things people in London, Ontario, come to us about most: crowding, gaps, mild to moderate bite issues, and teeth that have shifted over the years. For very complex cases, traditional braces are sometimes still the better tool, and we’ll tell you honestly if that’s you rather than sell you on aligners that won’t do the job. That’s the kind of thing we’d rather say up front.

How Invisalign Works At Olive Tree Dental?

Here’s what the process looks like with us, start to finish. No surprises.

Step 1:
Free consultation

We start by checking your teeth and gums to make sure there's nothing that needs sorting first, and to confirm Invisalign suits your case. This is also where you can ask about cost and timing with no pressure to book treatment.

Step 2:
3D digital scan

Instead of the old putty impressions that make people gag, we take a digital scan of your mouth. We use it to build a 3D plan and show you on screen roughly how your teeth will move and where they'll end up.

Step 3:
Your custom aligners

That plan is used to make your personal series of aligners. Each tray is slightly different from the last, which is how your teeth move gradually rather than all at once.

Step 4:
Wear them and switch

You wear your aligners 20 to 22 hours a day, taking them out to eat, drink anything other than water, and brush. Every week or two, you move to the next tray in the series. We see you now and then to check progress.

Step 5:
Reveal and retain

Once your teeth have reached the position we planned, treatment is done. We'll fit you with a retainer to keep them there, because teeth do try to drift back without one.

Invisalign Or Traditional Braces? An Honest Comparison

Both straighten teeth. The right choice depends on your case and what matters to you. Here’s the straight version.

Does Invisalign Hurt?

For most people, it’s pressure rather than pain. When you start a new tray, you’ll usually feel some tightness for a day or two, which is the aligner doing its job and your teeth responding. It settles. Most people describe it as an ache that’s easy to live with, not the soreness some get with braces tightening.
Because there are no wires or brackets, you also avoid the cuts and rubbing on your cheeks and lips that braces can cause. If a tray ever has a sharp edge, we can smooth it.

How Long Does Invisalign Take?

It depends on how far your teeth have to move, so the honest answer is a range, not a single number. Mild cases can finish faster, and more involved cases take longer. Most people are looking at somewhere between 6 and 18 months, with many moderate cases landing around the one-year mark.
You’ll often see your teeth start to shift within the first several weeks. We’ll give you a realistic timeline for your specific case at your consultation, once we’ve seen the scan, rather than a generic promise.
