The Invisalign procedure begins with a 3D scan of your mouth to represent the position and alignment of your teeth before treatment. From this scan, Dr. Ouellette and the Invisalign lab work together to produce an image of what your teeth should look like after treatment is completed. A series of incremental images are then digitally produced. The aligner trays are manufactured based on these intermediate images.

You will wear each Invisalign aligner for two weeks, then transition to a new one. Each aligner moves your teeth a certain amount, and in the end, you will achieve the smile you desire. Depending upon the amount of correction you need, your full treatment could take 9-18 months. Typically, you will change to a new aligner about every 2 weeks, and see Dr. Ouellette for an evaluation about every 8 weeks.
