Dr. Jonathan Schlosser and the professional team at Bracesetters Orthodontics are the experts for orthodontic treatment using Invisalign clear aligners in Middletown, NY. Treatment with the clear alternative to braces may reduce the time it takes to reach your treatment goals and the number of visits you make to the orthodontist.

Is This Treatment Right for You?

During your initial consultation, Dr. Jonathan Schlosser will discuss with you your orthodontic needs and treatment goals. At this visit, the staff will determine the severity of your malocclusion (the misalignment between the upper and lower jaws). This consultation may take from one-and-a-half to two hours and is important to assess the condition of your teeth and your possible orthodontic treatment options. If the doctor says that you’re a candidate for the Invisalign system, then you’re ready to start your treatment!

Is Invisalign Effective?

The clear aligners takes less time to work its magic than traditional metal braces. Treatment with Invisalign can last anywhere from 9 to 18 months, from fitting to completion, depending on how much work needs to be done. Dr. Jonathan Schlosser stress upon their patients that they must wear the aligners as directed. If you leave your aligners out for too long, your teeth can shift into unintended positions, and that may require a patient to have to start the whole process all over again.

What Does Invisalign Require?

Patients will need to visit their orthodontist every six-to-eight weeks (depending on individual needs) for check-ups on treatment progress with the clear aligners system. These check-ups will take about a half hour, during which your orthodontist will make sure that your aligners are comfortable and that they’re doing their job correctly.

The benefits of Invisalign are clear.

The clear aligners are virtually invisible, are never permanently bonded to your teeth. You can take them out to eat, brush, floss, and clean the tray.
