Is Invisalign the Right Cosmetic Solution for You?
As part of your free cosmetic consultation, Dr. Cirka and Dr. Meier will evaluate your teeth to find out if clear aligner therapy through Invisalign is the right solution for you.
As premier providers in the greater Philadelphia area, Dr. Cirka and Dr. Meier are leaders in Invisalign therapy. At your consultation they will study your smile with a critical cosmetic eye and envision how the teeth will predictably move. With aligner trays the teeth gradually and gently shift into place, creating beautiful smiles.
Will the trays be painful like metal braces?
No. Invisalign aligners are smooth, comfortable and easy to clean. Patients wear the trays all day and night and only remove them to eat. The majority of people that you see and talk to on a daily basis will have no idea that you are straightening your teeth because the trays are virtually invisible.
With traditional metal braces it is a lot harder on the patient. The brackets cause irritation in patient’s mouths and make it difficult to eat and enjoy certain foods. Since the Invisalign trays are removable patients do not need to change their diet or waste time cleaning brackets after each time eating. Simply pop out the tray, enjoy your meal, and pop the trays right back in!
How long do I wear each tray for?
Patients change their aligners every 2 weeks. The doctor will give you 3 or 4 trays at a time so that you are coming into the office every 6 to 8 weeks.
How long will it take to straighten my teeth with Invisalign?
Another great thing about Invisalign is the ability of the aligners to move teeth quickly. Dr. Meier and Dr. Cirka report that most cases resolve in 10 months’ time.
How do I prevent my teeth from shifting back after I finish Invisalign treatment?
Once you finish Invisalign treatment we will make custom retainers for you to wear periodically at night. This will keep the teeth straight long-term so that they do not shift back.
How much does Invisalign treatment cost?
The cost of Invisalign depends on how long the treatment will take. Schedule a free consultation with Dr. Cirka and Dr. Meier so that they can determine how long your specific case will take. After this determination is made we will know the cost of treatment and be able to help you figure out finances. Our office has a variety of payment plans available and we can help you figure out which works best.
