Is Invisalign a Good Choice for Straightening Your Teeth?
If you have crooked, gapped, or crowded teeth, Invisalign could be your pathway to a beautiful smile! Invisalign can correct multiple orthodontic issues simultaneously. What’s more, Invisalign aligners are clear, making your treatment highly discreet. SV Orthodontics is your one-stop location for Invisalign treatment in the Toronto, Ontario, area. By answering your questions, Drs. Elise Vincelette and Raman Samra give you greater insight into the amazing benefits of Invisalign.
What is Invisalign, and how does it work?
Invisalign is the first orthodontic system to use clear plastic aligners in place of metal brackets and wires to straighten crooked teeth. These aligners are customized for your individual use. Invisalign clear aligners slowly and gently shift your teeth into alignment when worn. Drs. Vincelette and Samra use computer imaging to plan your treatment and visualize how your new smile will be. We’ll also monitor your progress to ensure your smile goals are achieved.
How can I maximize my Invisalign treatment?
For optimal results from Invisalign, it’s essential you follow the guidelines of your treatment. This includes:
- Wearing your aligners at least 20 to 22 hours daily, removing them only for snacks, meals, and oral hygiene.
- Maintaining good oral hygiene to avoid oral issues that can delay your treatment.
- Cleaning your aligners daily and storing them safely when not in use. Â
- Upgrading to the new aligners in your series on schedule to continue making progress with your treatment.
Complying with these simple rules will help you achieve your smile goals quickly.

How long are Invisalign treatments?
As no two people have the same orthodontic issues, treatment times will vary from one person to the next. Generally, most people complete their treatment within 12 to 24 months. Your Toronto orthodontists can give you a tentative time frame for completing your treatment during your initial consultation.
What are the benefits of Invisalign?
Invisalign can correct multiple orthodontic issues, ranging from crooked teeth to crossbites, overbites, underbites, gaps between teeth, and overcrowding.
The clear, plastic aligners make your treatment discreet.
Invisalign clear aligners can be removed during meals and for brushing and flossing, which means you do not need to change your diet or oral hygiene routine.
The aligners are custom-made for your teeth for greater comfort and convenience. They’re also composed of smooth, plastic material with no metal parts to irritate your gums or cheeks.
Is Invisalign a good choice for you?
If comfort, flexibility, and convenience are important to you in orthodontic treatment, Invisalign could be just what you need! Invisalign can correct minor, moderate, and complex orthodontic issues to give your smile a straighter, more pleasing appearance. After evaluating your smile and assessing the problems that need to be addressed, Drs. Vincelette and Samra can determine if you’re a good candidate for this type of treatment.
