Studies have shown that properly
aligned teeth are less prone to Periodontal disease
as compared to too crowded or teeth with excessive
spacing.
Dr. Upadhyay is an Invisalign®
trained dentist. After consultation if it is
determined that Invisalign®
is right for you, a detailed treatment plan will be
discussed with you.
The treatment starts with the
following:
1. Taking impressions and pictures of
your teeth. These impressions and pictures help to
create a computerized 3D image
2. Creating a series of invisible aligners
custom fitted to your teeth
The
treatment progress for one of Dr. Upadhyay's
patient is shown in the virtual presentation above
(click the play button). This real case shows the
movement of the patient's teeth during the Invisalign®
treatment.
Customized aligners are created for each stage of
the treatment plan. These are worn all the time
except while regular activities like eating,
drinking, brushing, and flossing. You just have to
come in occasionally for monitoring your progress
and to pick up the new set of aligners.
