Invisalign uses a system of clear, smooth, BPA-free plastic aligners to gradually move your teeth into their proper position. Treatment usually takes about one year, and then you\u2019ll have the smile you\u2019ve always wanted.<!--more--><\/p>\n<h3>The Invisalign Process<\/h3>\n<p>The first step toward a straighter smile with <strong>Invisalign<\/strong> is a consultation with Dr. Metzger at which time the two of you will discuss your smile goals. We\u2019ll take x-rays, photographs and molded impressions of your teeth that <strong>Invisalign<\/strong> will use to create a 3D image of your existing smile. With this, Dr. Metzger will develop a treatment plan that will give you a visual of how your teeth will look after treatment. <strong>Invisalign<\/strong> will use this same treatment plan to fabricate your customized aligners.<\/p>\n<p>Your <strong>Invisalign<\/strong> aligners resemble plastic retainers and come in a series of sets\u2014one for your lower arch of teeth and one for the upper. You\u2019ll wear each set for two weeks, removing them only to eat and brush and floss your teeth. As you work your way through the series, you\u2019ll see your teeth gradually shift into their proper places. Of course, Dr. Metzger will need to see you in the office occasionally to monitor your progress. At the end of your treatment, you\u2019ll have a confident and beautiful smile.<\/p>\n<h3>Call Our Office Today<\/h3>\n<p>If you would like to learn more about <strong>Invisalign<\/strong>, then schedule a consultation with Dr. Metzger at Monet Aesthetic Dentistry in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drlmetzger.com\/contact-us.html\">Farmington, MI<\/a>.
