One of Our Invisalign Testimonials

“I was very cautious about who I choose and when I saw the results, I knew I was in good hands.”

How Does Invisalign Work

Invisalign invisible aligners

The Invisalign treatment process works by using a series of retainer-like aligners to gradually move the teeth into the optimal position. In your initial appointment, one of our Invisalign Philadelphia orthodontists will likely take an impression of your teeth, using a special putty that hardens quickly.

This putty will then be used to make a mold of your teeth, which is then used to create your aligners. The doctor will create a treatment plan based on the problems you would like to be addressed, as well as what the doctor feels needs to be addressed, in order to improve the health of your mouth.

Each retainer will gradually push your teeth towards the desired location. Like traditional braces, this happens very slowly. Your first retainer, for example, will be molded not to fit the current position of your teeth, but to fit your teeth after their first stage of movement.

Because the grooves of the Invisalign aligner will push against your teeth, they will gradually begin to move, until they fit perfectly into the aligner. That is how you know it is time for the next stage of aligners. Learn more about how it works.

The Invisalign Treatment Process

1. Get Your Customized Treatment Plan

Using the iTero Element® scanner at our Invisalign Philadelphia offices (or our Hatboro, PA office), we can take a fast and precise 3D digital scan of your teeth. From these scans we will map out a precise & custom treatment plan just for you, including the exact movements of your teeth and  the approximate length of treatment.

Using the same technology we will be able to show you a virtual representation of how your teeth will move with each stage of treatment. While every case is unique to each patient, treatment typically takes approximately a year for adults. For teens the length of treatments is comparable to that of braces.

2. Receive Your Custom Invisalign Aligners

Based on your individual treatment plan, a series of custom-made, clear aligners is then created specifically for you.

These aligners are 100% safe and made of a smooth, comfortable, BPA-free plastic that won’t irritate your cheeks and gums like traditional metal braces often do.

Simply wear the Invisalign braces throughout the day, and remove them when you eat or to brush and floss your teeth. As you wear each set of aligners, your teeth gently and gradually begin to shift into place. And because they’re virtually invisible, most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them.

3. Wear a New Aligner Every Two Weeks

Approximately every two weeks, you will begin wearing a new set of aligners, advancing you to the next stage of your treatment.

To monitor your progress, you will also have occasional checkups with your doctor, usually only every six weeks or so. For best results and a timely outcome, you should wear your aligners for 20 to 22 hours per day, throughout your entire treatment.

At every stage, you will be able to see how much closer you are to having the smile that reflects the real you.

Invisalign FAQs

What do aligners look like?

Aligners are clear and practically invisible. This is why they are often referred to as “clear braces”. They look similar to a clear tooth-whitening trays. These aligner trays are made of smooth, comfortable and virtually invisible plastic that you wear over your teeth. Invisalign aligners are custom-fit to your mouth for comfort and optimal teeth-straightening results.

Will the treatment be painful?

While Invisalign moves your teeth without the pain and anxiety metal braces can cause, some people experience temporary discomfort for a few days at the beginning of each new stage of treatment. This is normal and is typically described as a feeling of pressure. It’s also a sign that Invisalign is working, as it moves your teeth to their final destination. This discomfort typically goes away in a couple of days.

Will wearing the Invisalign aligners affect my speech?

Similar to other orthodontic treatments, Invisalign aligners may temporarily affect the speech of some people, and you may have a slight lisp for a day or two. However, as your tongue gets used to having aligners in your mouth, any lisp caused by the aligners should disappear.

How long will treatment take?

We find that aligners are most effective when worn 20 to 22 hours per day and removed only for eating, brushing and flossing.

How often will I have to wear my aligners?

Invisalign only works while you’re wearing the aligners. It’s recommended that you wear your aligners full-time, day and night, except to eat, brush and floss your teeth.

Can I just wear the aligners while I sleep?

No. The aligners must be in place a minimum of 20 to 22 hours a day for the treatment to be effective.

How is Orthodontics Limited Different From Other Invisalign Philadelphia orthodontists?

Orthodontics Limited has been awarded Invisalign Top 1% Elite Provider status for seven years straight and is the only Invisalign Diamond+ orthodontists in the Philadelphia and Montgomery County, PA area. They have been consistently recognized by Philadelphia Magazine as one of the top Philadelphia orthodontists in the area.

Is Invisalign right for me?

Whether you’re a teen or an adult, no matter what stage you’re at in life, you’ll appreciate how the Invisalign treatment has minimal interference in how you live, but has a significant positive impact on how you look and feel about yourself. From mild cases of crooked teeth and protruding teeth, to much more difficult dental problems involving serious malocclusion, overbite, or underbite, Invisalign effectively corrects a wide variety of dental problems. Whether your teeth are widely gapped, overly crowded or somewhere in between, we have an affordable teeth straightening option for you.

How much does Invisalign cost?

Cost is always a concern, but is determined by a number of factors. In most cases, Invisalign treatment is comparable to the cost of traditional braces. However, as with other medical treatments, only an Invisalign-trained doctor can determine the cost, based on your specific needs. Other factors may include your treatment goals, the difficulty of your case, how long you are in treatment, and additional factors determined by Drs. Gemmi, Middleberg, or Pale. Also, check your dental insurance plan—Invisalign Philadelphia treatment is covered by many dental insurance policies. And many doctors can offer flexible and affordable monthly payment plans as well.

Will my insurance cover Invisalign in Philadelphia or elsewhere?

Because medical benefits differ significantly from policy to policy, you should review your personal coverage plan. However, in general, if a patient has orthodontic coverage, Invisalign should be covered to the same extent as conventional braces.

Does Invisalign really work?

Yes. Through the use of the Invisalign patented thermoplastic design, Invisalign braces move your teeth through the appropriate placement of controlled force. The main difference is that Invisalign not only controls the force, but also the timing of the force application. During each stage, only certain teeth are allowed to move. These movements are determined by Drs. Gemmi or Middleberg as they map out your unique Invisalign treatment plan.
