The Benefits Of Treating Misalignment Issues
Invisalign patients at our dental office in Doylestown, PA,
love that their clear aligners can:
Crooked, gapped, and twisted teeth can cause you to be self-conscious and hide your mouth while smiling or speaking. Invisalign treatment can correct the misalignment issues that lower your confidence.
Having crooked or crowded teeth makes it hard to floss and brush properly. By putting your teeth into proper alignment, you can keep them cleaner and prevent cavities and tooth decay.
A misaligned bite can put added stress on your temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and lead to TMJ disorder. Straightening your teeth can put your bite back into alignment and prevent serious jaw issues.

Did You Know Orthodontics Can Prevent Health Issues?
Orthodontics like Invisalign and traditional braces give you a straighter smile and prevent oral health issues associated with misaligned teeth. For example, overlapping teeth can make flossing and brushing more challenging, increasing your risk of tooth decay.
A misaligned bite can also put excess pressure on your temporomandibular joints (TMJs). Your jaw will naturally try to overcompensate for a misaligned bite, but over time, this causes significant strain that can lead to TMJ disorder. Symptoms include headaches and a locking jaw joint.
You can take a proactive stand against these issues by consulting us about Invisalign and metal braces.
Invisalign Treatment Timeline
The Invisalign process is simple and occurs in several stages. The first step is always to contact our Philadelphia-area office to schedule your consultation.

How to Care For Invisalign Clear Aligners
Invisalign makes it much easier than braces to keep your teeth and gums clean and healthy. Braces have metal brackets and hard-to-reach places that make flossing difficult, while Invisalign is easily removed to make daily cleaning as simple as ever.
Brushing twice daily and flossing once daily is essential to keeping your teeth and gums healthy. During Invisalign treatment, this process becomes even more important because the clear aligners will sit on your teeth for 22 hours a day. You should also continue to get routine dental cleanings at our Doylestown practice during your treatment.
It is important to get rid of any food particles before reinserting your aligners. The clear aligners can hold that debris against your teeth for hours, which can cause cavities and tooth staining. Post-snack cleaning is especially important if you have enjoyed something sugary or acidic. Remove your aligners while eating and drinking anything besides water.
One of the major benefits of Invisalign over braces is that they are removable. However, that can also make them easy to lose. It is important to always take them off and set them in a safe place where they cannot get dropped. Call our Philadelphia-area office right away if your aligners are lost or damaged.
Avoid putting your aligners in extremely hot or extremely cold water while cleaning or rinsing. The aligners are made of clear plastic that can be warped when subjected to an extreme temperature. A warped aligner can alter your treatment plan and cause a delay in the process.
The best way to clean your aligners is with the Invisalign cleaning system. However, a simple denture cleaner is also effective. It is best to avoid brushing your aligners because the bristles can scratch the surface. When the surface is scratched, your aligners are no longer invisible.
Tips For Successful Treatment
Be Aware of What You Drink
You should avoid drinking acidic, sugary, or dark-colored liquids while wearing your aligners, because this could cause the aligners to become stained. Sugar and acids can also become trapped in your aligners and affect your teeth. You should also avoid hot beverages, which can warp your aligners.
Record your Daily Use
To get the most out of your Invisalign treatment, you have to wear your clear aligners for 20 to 22 hours a day. The time you spend eating and drinking can add up, potentially cutting into the amount of time you should be wearing your retainer. Keep track of how much time you spend without your aligner each day to stay on target.
Attend Check-Ups
Dr. Kalavadiya will schedule check-up appointments at our Doylestown, PA, office during and after your Invisalign treatment. This is also an opportunity to address any issues that develop and make necessary adjustments.
My Aligners Have Been Damaged.
What Should I Do?
If your aligners have been lost or damaged, call our Doylestown, PA, office right away. Depending on where you are in your treatment, Dr. K will either send you a new set that is the same as the lost or damaged trays, or advise that you wear your next trays. You should not go without wearing any aligners because this can delay and alter the outcome of your treatment.
What to Expect After Invisalign Treatment
The results from your clear orthodontics can last a lifetime if you follow your post-treatment instructions. Whether you wear Invisalign or traditional braces, you will have to wear a retainer (usually while sleeping) after completing your treatment to help keep your teeth in their proper positions. You may be able to wear the last aligner tray in the series as a retainer.

Orthodontics can benefit your overall health and the appearance of your smile. Some patients who have misaligned teeth may automatically think of traditional braces when it comes to treatment. But unless your teeth are severely misaligned, you will most likely qualify for Invisalign treatment.
Advancements in orthodontics now allow for greater freedom beyond metal braces. Contact our Doylestown office today to see if discreet Invisalign treatment is a good fit for your smile.

“From the first day I walked in the door to the office and the many times I went back, there has consistently been professionalism, a friendly smile and laughs from the whole staff.”

What Affects Invisalign Cost?
The cost of Invisalign is similar to conventional braces. However, many factors can affect the overall cost of your treatment:
Severity of Misalignment
Patients with minor misalignment require fewer trays and can expect to achieve their desired results more quickly, both of which reduce cost. Those with more complicated cases of misalignment will require more advanced treatment with specialized aligners and a greater number of appointments at our Doylestown office, which raises the overall cost.
Time
Most patients will need to wear the aligners for around 12–18 months, similar to conventional braces. Shorter treatments require fewer sets of custom-created aligners, meaning lower costs overall. You can save money and achieve your results quicker by closely following your dentist's instructions and wearing the aligners for the required amount of time each day.
Insurance
Most insurance plans cover orthodontic treatments including Invisalign, up to a certain amount. To ensure you get the most coverage from your insurance plan, our Doylestown staff will work closely with you to correctly submit the necessary documentation. We want you to pay as little out-of-pocket as possible so you can enjoy the benefits of Invisalign treatment.
