As a dentist performing cosmetic therapy in Charlotte, NC, Dr. Plascyk incorporates Invisalign into many of his cosmetic dentistry cases. Invisalign can be completed as a stand-alone cosmetic procedure or it can be done prior to porcelain veneer or implant therapy. Invisalign is a series of thin clear plastic trays (called aligners) that fit on teeth and gently, incrementally move teeth into the ideal position. The system is often referred to as clear braces. The aligners may be removed when you eat or clean your teeth, but because they're clear, you can wear them without worrying about their appearance. Each aligner in your custom series will move your teeth a little closer to the desired position. Invisalign works well for simple tooth movements. When more sophisticated movements are required, traditional braces present a better option. As with traditional braces, a retainer is necessary after treatment to prevent shifting of teeth following Invisalign or clear braces therapy. You can contact Charlotte, NC area patients who completed Invisalign with Dr. Plascyk.
I feel that my Charlotte, NC area patients receive excellent Invisalign care because my team correctly coordinates the treatment to create the ideal bite (occlusion) and cosmetic appearance of the teeth. As a dentist performimg cosmetic therapy such as cosmetic porcelain veneer therapy, I almost never do an Invisalign case without performing a complete bite analysis First. In my opinion, there is no way to determine the best position and function of the teeth for my Charlotte, NC area patients without doing a mounted bite analysis and a complete bite adjustment when indicated. Having the bite properly analyzed and balanced is a routine part of my cosmetic and routine dental care. Many elite dental academies and study centers support this concept.
We start an Invisalign case by taking dental records, which includes impressions of the teeth, photographs and x-rays. I then send the records and a prescription of how I want the teeth moved to a certified Invisalign lab. The Invisalign lab sends me back an animation of the tooth movements. This video is called a Clincheck. I may make changes on the Clincheck and send it back to the Invisalign lab. When I am finally satisfied with the tooth movements, I will bring the Charlotte, NC area patient in to review the Clincheck video and answer questions. The lab then creates a custom set of clear Invisalign aligners, or clear braces, for the patient's unique case. Each Invisalign tray is worn for two weeks.
The length of treatment for a particular Invisalign case depends on the amount off tooth movement required, but I can often complete a routine Invisalign case in six months. Many of my Charlotte, NC area patients choose to end Invisalign treatment with cosmetic whitening for a straight and bright cosmetic smile.
I often do Invisalign on my Charlotte, NC area patients before cosmetic porcelain veneer and dental implant therapy. If the front teeth are mal-aligned (crowded, rotated or spaced), Invisalign can straighten the teeth and move them into more ideal positions. Now that the teeth are in more correct positions because of the Invisalgn treatment, the teeth can be shaped (drilled) more conservatively removing less natural tooth structure when doing cosmetic porcelain veneer or cosmetic porcelain crown therapy.
