Invisalign FAQ

Home » Invisalign » Invisalign FAQ

How Does Invisalign Work?

Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that uses customized, clear plastic aligners to adjust the teeth gradually. Our Invisalign providers in Laguna Niguel & Laguna Beach, CA, offer treatments to help patients achieve straight teeth and vibrant smiles.

When considering if Invisalign is right for you, begin by visiting your local Invisalign provider in Laguna Niguel & Laguna Beach, CA, Kimball Orthodontics. We will start with an initial consultation, where Dr. Kimball or Dr. Kinser will evaluate your orthodontic requirements and discuss your desired outcomes. Next, we will guide you through the process of creating personalized aligners specifically tailored to ensure you achieve your desired results in the most convenient fashion possible. In addition to undergoing regular assessments, Kimball Orthodontics in Laguna Niguel & Laguna Beach, CA, provides follow-up care plans to ensure that each patient’s treatment ends with a perfect smile!

How Do I Care For My Invisalign?

Caring for Invisalign is incredibly simple, and only adds one more step to your dental hygiene routine. All you have to do is use lukewarm water and a soft toothbrush to clean the inside and outside of your aligners whenever you remove them to brush and floss your teeth. You wouldn’t want to put harmful bacteria back on teeth you just brushed, so it’s important to thoroughly clean the aligners each time. The sleek plastic makes it easy to clean, and you don’t have the added stress of trying to maneuver around metal wires and brackets.

How Long Do I Have To Wear My Aligners For Each Day?

Aligners are an excellent way to align your teeth, but they must be worn correctly to ensure you achieve results. You should wear your aligners for a minimum of 20-22 hours daily, and it’s best to only take them out when eating, brushing, or flossing your teeth. Also, make sure that you attend regular check-ups with our team so that we can monitor your progress. Wearing your aligners as instructed can help you achieve the smile you desire in the most efficient amount of time!

How Will Invisalign Affect My Lifestyle?

Invisalign has completely revolutionized the way that people take care of their teeth and smile. With Invisalign, patients can gradually adjust to their improved smiles without disrupting their lives. This revolutionary treatment requires only short orthodontic visits and no major lifestyle change – you merely switch out your aligners every two weeks or so, letting you enjoy life normally while watching your smile become perfectly aligned. Invisalign is also very easy to maintain as removable aligners make brushing and flossing much easier than with metal braces.

Do I Still Need To See My Dentist While Wearing Invisalign?

Yes, Invisalign does not replace the need for regular dental visits, and Invisalign can work in conjunction with your existing dental routine. While wearing Invisalign, it is critical to visit your dentist at least twice a year for check-ups and cleanings, as this is necessary for maintaining good dental health. In short – while Invisalign helps you achieve straight teeth and vibrant smiles, it’s important to remember that it doesn’t replace regular dental visits and care. Invisalign is just one part of a comprehensive oral health plan.

The entire Kimball team was absolutely amazing! From the initial inquiry to a complimentary consultation to leaving with smiles and slushies.

Bari Kay H.
This office is the best! So professional, always on time appointments, and the doctors and staff are pleasant to be around. There is never a question to ask, where I... haven’t received a response and explanation. I travel over an hour, just to be seen here, because no won’t trust any other orthodontists with my teeth! Thank you for being awesome!read more

Julia W.
Our daughter just got her braces off and we are so happy with the results. Her teeth look amazing. The staff is so professional and I don’t think they were ever late for... an appointment. As a busy mom of three kids this was amazing! Dr. Kimball is so talented and we loved getting to know Dr. Kinser as well. The assistants are kind and really connected with my daughter. My son is still in treatment so he will continue to enjoy the icees after each appointment. Overall, great team and loved the results.read more

All three of my children have gone here and I'm on my third. Although they are expensive, it's worth it to know you are working with the best.
Sadie L.
Love this office! The dr and all the staff are amazing.
Shirley D.
Excellent experience, would definitely recommend to others. Flexible with days and times. I love that there are 2 offices, so we can really get the day and times that... work for us. Love the monthly payments! Takes the sting out of paying for Ortho all at once:) thank you!read more
Kami S.
Loved the staff and My daughter’s teeth look amazing.
Stacey B.
Dr. Kimball, despite the fact he is a slower marathon runner than myself (despite the fact he is so tall), I must emphatically state that he and his team are A+. Each of... them. I want to specifically highlight the wonderful job they do of scheduling and (constantly) reminding you of your appointments…I mean constantly, it’s impossible to forget.All jokes aside, I left today and thought to myself “wow, I really enjoyed going there, and I’m going to miss them.” Thanks you guys 🥰read more
