Calgary, AB area dentist describes the Invisalign clear aligners treatment process for a straighter smile

In Calgary Area Invisalign Clear Aligners

Obtaining a beautiful smile is easy with the help of Dr. Palka Sawhney Sharma of Lake Chaparral Dental Care. Her practice is located in Calgary, AB, and offers a wide range of treatment options for patients considering smile alignment. While traditional braces have been the conventional way of straightening teeth, there are now more discreet solutions to choose from, including Invisalign. This method of treatment includes a process of using clear aligners over the teeth for gradual repositioning of the smile. It is a popular treatment in our office for many reasons. Invisalign is:

  • Simple to use
  • Easy to care for
  • Fast and effective
  • Perfect for mild to moderate misalignment
  • Discreet
  • Affordable
  • Highly desirable

What is the process of obtaining Invisalign and improving the smile?

First, patients visit Dr. Palka Sawhney Sharma and her team at Lake Chaparral Dental Care in Calgary, AB. During this appointment, patients consult with their dentist and undergo an evaluation to determine if their needs can be addressed with the use of Invisalign aligner trays. Once patients have decided to move forward with treatment, the dentist will perform a series of dental impressions. The impressions are sent off to the Invisalign laboratories where the team creates that patient’s dream smile and fabricates a series of trays to achieve these results. The trays are sent to Lake Chaparral Dental Care and given to the patients, along with strict instructions on use. Patients wear the first trays for one week, night and day, before replacing with the next tray in the series. With proper compliance, most patients can achieve the smile of their dreams in less than a year without the need for metal bracket and wire braces.
