Invisalign: is it for everyone? Dr. Siu explains....
Perhaps you're wondering what Invisalign treatment at Siu Orthodontics is really like, and what effect it will have on your day-to-day activities. You might be wondering: Will Invisalign slur my speech? Will people know I'm in treatment? At Siu Orthodontics, we'll tell you that you're not alone in your concerns! Dr. Tina Siu and our team thought we’d take a moment and discuss these clear aligners today.
If you've qualified for Invisalign, you'll wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move — little by little, week by week — until they have straightened to the final position Dr. Siu has prescribed. You'll visit Dr. Siu about once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.
Not only are the aligners invisible, they are removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment. Plus, brushing and flossing are no problem. They are also comfortable, with no metal to cause mouth abrasions during treatment. And no metal and wires usually means you spend less time in our office getting adjustments.
Dr. Siu is a certified Invisalign provider in San Marino, Pasadena and surrounding communities in Los Angeles County. If you have questions about Invisalign, or would like to find out if you are a candidate for Invisalign treatment at Siu Orthodontics, please give us a call at 626-537-4170.
Have a GREAT rest of your Father's Day weekend everyone!
