How does Invisalign work?
Invisalign works using clear aligners that fit snugly over the teeth. These gently and safely move the teeth into the desired position over time. The aligners are worn in sequence, each one moving the teeth a little more than the previous one. Your dentist at Needham Dental will closely monitor your treatment to ensure everything is moving as predicted.
How do I fix a broken Invisalign aligner?
The short answer is… you don’t! If you break or damage one of your Invisalign aligners, contact us as soon as possible. We will be able to advise the best course of action – don’t worry, it happens!
Do I have to change my diet with Invisalign?
When you eat or drink during your Invisalign treatment, you must remove your aligners. This prevents damage but also stops food debris and bacteria becoming trapped in your aligners. The great news is that it also means you can eat and drink as normal!
