Your Consultation With Our Invisalign® Orthodontist
Our Invisalign orthodontist carefully examines your teeth and jaw using digital X-rays and imaging technologies during your consultation. If Invisalign is right for you, digital impressions of your teeth will be taken to develop your treatment plan. Most patients with mild-to-moderate misalignment can benefit from Invisalign. For more severe orthodontic issues, traditional orthodontics may be recommended.
How Does Invisalign® Work?
The Invisalign® system is a popular orthodontic treatment using clear aligners to gradually straighten teeth. These aligners are customized to fit comfortably over the teeth and must be worn consistently throughout the day and night. What makes Invisalign® appealing is that the aligners are also removable, allowing for easier eating, brushing, and flossing. This makes the treatment more convenient and enjoyable for patients.
Our team uses digital imaging technology to scan your mouth and create sets of clear braces to be changed every two weeks. Each set is designed to move your teeth to a more correct and aligned position. Regular visits to our office allow our Invisalign® dentist to track your progress and make any necessary adjustments.
If you're ready to correct any of the following concerns, Invisalign® aligners could be the right solution for you:
- Crooked Teeth
- Overbites
- Underbites
- Crossbites
- Gaps Between Teeth
- Open Bites
- Crowded Teeth
- Misshapen Teeth
At your consultation, our team will help you design the best Invisalign treatment plan for your smile.

As a Preferred Invisalign® Provider, our team uses digital technology to evaluate your smile and develop a treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Invisalign® can be an effective option for many patients with mild-to-moderate orthodontic concerns, including crowded teeth, gaps, and certain bite problems. More complex alignment concerns may require traditional orthodontic treatment or another approach. During your consultation, Dr. Heather Bond-Southard will evaluate your teeth, bite, and oral health to help determine which treatment best fits your needs.
Depending on the severity of your orthodontic concerns, Invisalign may help address crooked or crowded teeth, gaps between teeth, certain overbites and underbites, crossbites, open bites, and more. Your treatment options will depend on how your teeth fit together and the movements needed to achieve your goals. Our team will explain what Invisalign® can accomplish for your smile.
Your Invisalign® consultation begins with an evaluation of your teeth, jaw, bite, and overall oral health. Our team may use digital X-rays and imaging to better understand your needs. If you're a candidate for Invisalign, we'll take digital impressions or scans to help plan your treatment. You'll have the opportunity to discuss your goals, ask questions, and learn what to expect throughout the process.
Treatment time varies depending on the complexity of your case, the movements required, and how consistently you wear your aligners. Some patients complete treatment in several months, while others need a year or longer. At Southard Family Dentistry, we'll provide an estimated timeline based on your personalized treatment plan and monitor your progress during follow-up visits.
Invisalign® aligners generally need to be worn for about 20 to 22 hours per day to keep treatment progressing as planned. You'll typically remove them for meals, drinking anything other than water, and brushing and flossing. Wearing your aligners consistently is important because extended periods without them can delay progress or affect how well they fit.
At Southard Family Dentistry, aligners are typically changed about every two weeks, according to your treatment plan. Your dentist may recommend a different schedule based on your progress and individual needs. Follow the instructions provided by our team, and contact us if an aligner feels unusually uncomfortable, becomes damaged, or no longer fits properly.
One of the benefits of Invisalign is that you remove the aligners before eating, so you don't have the same food restrictions associated with traditional braces. You can generally continue enjoying your favorite foods, provided they're appropriate for your dental health. Be sure to brush your teeth before putting your aligners back in, or rinse your mouth well if brushing isn't immediately possible.
If you lose or damage an aligner, contact Southard Family Dentistry for instructions. Depending on your treatment stage and how the remaining aligners fit, your dentist may recommend temporarily wearing a previous set, moving to the next set, or ordering a replacement. Don't make changes to your treatment schedule without guidance, as doing so may affect your progress.
Yes, most patients need to wear a retainer after Invisalign to help maintain their results. Teeth can gradually shift after orthodontic treatment, even when the original alignment has been corrected. Your dentist will explain which retainer is appropriate for you and how often to wear it to help preserve your new smile.
