Step 1:
Visit one of our dental practices in Kansas City or Blue
Springs. |

|
During this first step
you will need to make an appointment with your Kansas City
Invisalign ® Dentist, Dr. Woods. During
the initial visit, Dr. Woods will help you decide on your
course of Orthodontic treatment. He will take bite impressions
of your teeth and send them, along with a set of precise
instructions, to Invisalign ®. |
Step 2:
Invisalign ® makes your aligners |
 |
Invisalign ® uses advanced
3-D computer imaging technology to transform your bite impressions
into a custom-made series of clear and removable aligners.
There may be as many as 48 in the series or as few as 12,
depending on your individual treatment plan. |
Step 3:
You receive your aligners in a few weeks. |
 |
During your next visit to Dr.
Woods, you will receive your first set of aligners. Dr.
Woods will most likely give you a few additional sets for
you to wear before you return for your next visit. |
Step 4:
You wear your aligners ( clear braces ). |
 |
You'll wear each set of aligners
( clear braces ) day and night for about 2 weeks, removing
them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss your teeth. Total
treatment time averages 9-15 months, but will vary from
case to case. You'll visit Invisalign dentist - Dr. Woods
only about every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is
progressing as planned. You'll visit one of our two dental
practices in Kansas City or Blue Springs. |
Step 5:
You've finished invisalign treatment! |
 |
Congratulations! When you're
finished wearing each aligner in the series, your orthodontic
treatment will be complete and you will have the beautiful
smile you've always wanted. |
