What is invisalign treatment?
Invisalign treatment (clear aligners) is an orthodontic treatment method based on the principle of regulating crookedness by applying force to the relevant teeth using transparent plates called aligners prepared to suit your teeth. The special dental plaques applied in this treatment are planned individually through computer-aided design applications. Clear aligners treatment for our patients with crooked teeth is performed comfortably at Avedent Dental Clinic in Istanbul.
When can you use clear aligners?
The current crookedness of the teeth is of great importance in order to apply invisalign treatment. Treatment of mild and moderate tooth crowding can be achieved with this method. However, if advanced crowding is observed or if there is a need to treat crowding that develops due to skeletal anomalies, it would be better to turn to different orthodontic treatment alternatives.
There is no upper age limit for treatment in clear aligners applications. However, the amount of development of the teeth is important for an ideal treatment. In order to provide appropriate conditions, permanent second molars must begin to erupt, and this period occurs approximately between the ages of 12 and 14.

Preparing for Clear Aligners Treatments
In order for clear aligners treatment to be applied ideally, it is of great importance that the tooth and gum tissues are healthy. For this reason, before the treatment, the existing tartar on the teeth should be cleaned and the restorations of the decayed teeth should be completed with methods such as fillings.
In some cases, a person’s wisdom teeth can negatively affect the course of orthodontic treatments. If the dentist detects a wisdom tooth with location characteristics that may cause this problem, wisdom tooth extraction is performed before starting transparent plaque treatment.
After an oral measurement is taken for orthodontic treatment, no other procedures are performed in the mouth until the treatment is completed. Prosthetic procedures such as implants, all-on4/6 or bridges are planned after Invisalign treatment.

The three-dimensional virtual image of the treatment result can also be examined in detail through this application.
How Do Clear Aligners Straighten Teeth?
Thanks to their design features, clear aligners provide treatment on the principle that the plate creates a controlled pressure on the tooth. These pressure areas on the plate are determined depending on the desired position of the tooth. The maximum movement a plate should provide is stable. The number of plates a person needs is determined by taking this amount of movement into consideration. The pressure directions to be applied to each plate are planned according to the new positions of the teeth. If the treatment conditions are met properly, a plate is used for 15 days and then switched to the next plate.
How to Use Clear Aligners?
In invisalign treatment, regular use of the plate is an important factor for the treatment process to be completed in accordance with the plan. To create an effective treatment, aligners need to be worn for an average of 20 to 22 hours a day for effective treatment. Therefore, it is recommended to remove it only when eating or drinking. It is possible to remove the plaque for a short time on special occasions and various events, but it is recommended not to repeat this frequently so as not to affect the treatment process.
Tips for Taking Care of Clear Aligners
Clear aligners are produced from a material that is affected by high temperatures. Therefore, in order to prevent the plaque from deforming, it should be removed when hot food or drinks are consumed. Cold or normal temperature drinks can also be consumed while the aligners are in the mouth.
Cleaning clear aligners is important to ensure continuity of oral and dental health. For plaque care, it is sufficient to clean the plaques with a toothbrush under warm water in the morning and evening. In addition, denture cleaning tablets can also be used to clean plaques.
Clear Aligners Aftercare
After Invisalign treatment is completed, the teeth and surrounding tissues must be supported with an auxiliary appliance for a certain period of time so that they can adapt to their new positions. In order to provide this support, fixed reinforcement appliances called retainers are placed on the inner surface of the teeth. By using these appliances for the period determined by the orthodontist, the lifespan of the treatment can be significantly increased.
