Today’s Invisalign aligners are the clear preference to achieve a straighter  smile in Langley, BC

Invisalign Clear Aligners in Langley BC area

More than eight million people have reportedly straightened their crooked, crowded, and otherwise misaligned teeth without the metal brackets and wires of braces since the late 1990s. However, Invisalign Clear Aligners in Langley, BC, at Smile365 Dental and elsewhere have evolved considerably in the past 20-plus years and especially so in the last decade. As technologies and materials have advanced, Invisalign is now an appropriate treatment alternative to traditional orthodontic systems for many different types of patients.

The beauty of SmartForce

The makers of Invisalign, Align Technology, have an illustrated guide of all the different mouths and corresponding conditions that may be corrected with these clear, smooth, BPA-free dental appliances. When worn over your teeth in a similar fashion to retainers, whitening trays, nightguards, or mouthguards, Invisalign aligner trays may be a suitable treatment for:

  • Overbite
  • Underbite
  • Crossbite
  • Gap-toothed smiles
  • Crowding
  • “Mixed” (baby, permanent teeth)
  • “General” straightening needs and more!

Dr. Harpreet Aulakh of Smile365 Dental likes to say that almost every patient who is a good candidate for braces can benefit from Invisalign too. As with all treatments, Dr. Aulakh will schedule a consultation with you at the Langley, BC, office. Patients may be candidates for Invisalign with the assistance of SmartForce attachments.

These tiny, discreet “handles” are placed on teeth before or during your treatment. In this manner, the attachments give each tray something to gently push on, which aids in the aligners applying the right amount of force in the right direction to facilitate even the most complex tooth movements. As with the aligner trays, the SmartForce attachments are customised to your mouth and needs. So, the aligners fit smoothly and securely around the SmartForce components for comfort and precision tooth movement. 

Removable treatment comes with responsibility

Your treatment is in good hands with Dr. Aulakh’s planning. She will continue to monitor your teeth to ensure they are gradually being repositioned. Since the aligner trays are not fixed and may be removed for cleaning and eating, compliance is a “must” to ensure that your teeth move as expected. We recommend that trays be worn for at least 22 hours each day. Each tray is just one in a series of aligners to be worn throughout treatment. Every two weeks, you exchange the current tray for the one that corresponds with the next stage of your plan. The number of trays required to realise your smile goals depends on the many characteristics personal to you and, as such, varies from patient to patient.
