 Dr. Mills is a Certified Invisalign Provider
Consider Invisalign to get the beautiful straight teeth you've always
wanted – without braces. A complimentary consultation with Dr.
Mills can determine if Invisalign is right for you.
What is it?
Invisalign uses a series of invisible, removable, and comfortable aligners
that no one can tell you're wearing. So you can smile more during treatment
as well as after. Invisalign is made with 3-D computer imaging technology,
and has been proven effective. More than 70% of orthodontists in the
US and Canada are certified to treat with Invisalign.
Why would I want it?
Not only are the aligners invisible, they are removable, so you can
eat and drink what you want while in treatment, plus brushing and flossing
are no problem. They are also comfortable, with no metal to cause mouth
abrasions during treatment. And no metal and wires usually means you
spend less time in your doctor's office getting adjustments. Invisalign
also allows you to view your own virtual treatment plan when you start,
so you can see how your straight teeth will look when your treatment
is complete.
How does it work?
You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only
to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you replace each
aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will
move – little
by little, week by week – until they have straightened to the
final position Dr. Mills has prescribed. You'll visit
Dr. Mills about once every 6 weeks
to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.
Total treatment time averages 9-15 months and the average
number of aligners worn during
treatment is between 18 and 30, but both will vary from
case to case.
