Does anyone have the breakdown?
As a plastic surgeon, I can tell you that the duration of Invisalign treatment in Canada can vary from person to person. Generally, the treatment takes about 12 to 18 months, but in some cases, it may be shorter or longer.
The time it takes for Invisalign to work depends on several factors, such as the severity of your dental problems, your age, and the compliance with wearing the aligners. Invisalign uses a series of clear plastic aligners that gradually move your teeth into the desired position. Each aligner is worn for about two weeks, and then you switch to the next one in the series.
During the treatment, you will need to wear the aligners for at least 20 to 22 hours a day to achieve the best results. It's important to follow your orthodontist's instructions carefully and make sure to remove the aligners before eating and drinking, except for water.
Your orthodontist will monitor your progress throughout the treatment and may make adjustments to the aligners as needed. In addition, you may need to visit your orthodontist's office every six to eight weeks for check-ups and to receive new aligners.
After the treatment is complete, you may need to wear a retainer to maintain the alignment of your teeth. Your orthodontist will discuss the need for a retainer with you and provide instructions on how to care for it.
It's important to note that Invisalign is not suitable for everyone. Your orthodontist will evaluate your dental condition and determine if Invisalign is the right treatment option for you. If you have any questions or concerns about Invisalign treatment, it's best to consult with a qualified orthodontist who can provide personalized advice and guidance.
