Invisalign Aligner Orthodontics in Thousand Oaks, CA

Our invisalign treatment in Thousand Oaks, CA involves a clear, plastic tray that is custom designed for the patient’s teeth. These aligners have to be worn for about 20 to 22 hours per day for the best results. The aligners are virtually invisible thereby making it not noticeable during the treatment period. With the time wearing an invisalign aligner the teeth will gently and gradually shift into place treating the abnormalities. The doctor will be recommending a new set of invisalign if needed after checking the condition of teeth after a period of wearing invisalign. 

Invisalign Teen is the same as invisalign providing a teeth straightening solution using removable clear retainers. This is specially designed for teens because they will have teeth that are still developing. Most importantly Invisalign Teen is designed to allocate additional space for growing teeth and to guide teeth and roots into best position without abnormalities. 

To achieve the best possible result retainers have to be worn as much as possible. To monitor if the retainers have been worn for an optimal amount of time there are indicators included in the Invisalign Teen. Unlike the traditional metal braces which require two years to treat an average case Invisalign requires slightly less time for an average case and significantly less time for mild cases. 

The main advantage of Invisalign is that they are removable. Therefore they can be removed prior to eating which results in better oral health. Also, Invisalign treatment is more comfortable and less intrusive. 

Choosing Invisalign treatment for a patient is an important decision which depends on the orthodontist. Dr. Thomas Lee is an expert in providing the best possible treatment for a patient considering every requirement. He has completed thousands of invisalign cases and has successfully treated a huge variety of cases using invisalign.
