Invisalign® Teeth Straightening in Canton, GA

Straight and properly aligned teeth offer more than just attractiveness, and they are an important part of keeping your entire mouth healthy. Gaps, crooked teeth, and a misaligned bite can turn into long-term issues that may become painful and possibly expensive to fix. Our MINT dentistry professionals are proud to offer the Invisalign aligner system for individuals in Canton, GA. Custom made to fit comfortably and meet your goals, Invisalign clear aligners are more attractive and comfortable compared to metal braces. They are also removable to make it easy to eat, brush your teeth, and floss. If you are interested in getting a straighter, more attractive smile, schedule a visit with an Invisalign provider at MINT dentistry. Our boutique practice in Canton, GA utilizes cutting-edge dental technologies and techniques, including Invisalign treatment, so you can get an attractive, dazzling smile you'll want to share with the world.

The way your teeth are aligned and your dental bite is determined by many different factors, including your hereditary traits, if you are missing one or several teeth, if you sucked your thumb as a child, and even a traumatic injury. Misaligned teeth can lead to other oral health problems, like dental malocclusion (a bad bite), abnormal enamel wear, difficulty chewing and speaking, plus jaw pain and toothaches. If your MINT dentist notices any of these problems during your annual exam, we might suggest Invisalign aligners.

Clear Invisalign aligners can be ideal for both adults and teens in Canton, GA who would like straighter teeth but without the appearance and hassle of traditional metal orthodontics. While Invisalign trays should be worn at least 20 hours a day, they can be removed to brush your teeth and eat, as well as for special events and playing sports. Far more discreet than traditional braces, most people won't know that you are wearing your Invisalign clear aligners.

Digital impressions are made of your teeth after your initial consultation with your MINT dentistry team. Once they are sent to our office, we will contact you to get your first aligners and instructions from one of our skilled doctors. You should use your aligners every day for at least 20 hours for the process to work with the goal of removing them only for eating and cleaning. After about two weeks, you will switch to the next set of aligners as they can continue to shift your bite closer to proper alignment. You will need to plan to attend follow-up appointments as recommended so our Invisalign provider can review your progress, and you can get more digital x-rays taken so new sets of aligners can be made. How long you will need to wear Invisalign aligners will vary based on your starting bite and your cosmetic goals. Most patients undergo Invisalign treatment for around 1 – 2 years.

After all of your work spent aligning your teeth and straightening up your smile, it is important to maintain those great results. Invisalign Vivera® retainers help to hold your teeth in place using the same comfortable material as your aligner trays. Your retainer will be made custom at the Invisalign dental laboratory based on digital x-rays taken once your treatment is complete. Your Invisalign dentist will tell you when to wear your retainer and provide instructions for care after it is shipped to our MINT dentistry office in Canton, GA. Our team will continuously check your bite and alignment during your yearly dental examinations to make sure your teeth don't move.

It will all depend on your dental benefits, but a portion of your Invisalign clear aligners may be covered by your insurance. Our front office will confirm your specific policy coverage and determine your personal cost. MINT dentistry in Canton, GA is proud to accept many different payment methods for patients who don't have dental insurance. During your initial consultation, our financial team will estimate your treatment costs and tell you how we can help make your Invisalign treatment easier to afford, including flexible payment plans and medical financing. It's important to keep in mind that a healthy smile is part of a happy, healthy life. Our office is devoted to helping you achieve this goal in an affordable fashion.
