Marrecau Orthodontics is proud to be recognized by Invisalign as a certified provider. Invisalign clear aligners offer you a transparent, convenient, and comfortable experience while enhancing your smile.
Your first visit is the initial consultation with Dr. Marrecau where he will evaluate your orthodontic needs and discuss your goals with you. At this time, Dr. Marrecau will be able to tell you if you are a candidate for Invisalign treatment.
Invisalign leverages the latest technology available including a 3D digital scanning system called iTero. The images captured by the iTero are used to plan each tooth movement with astounding precision. The movements are so precise that Dr. Marrecau will be able to show you a simulation of your treatment including the length of treatment and the final results.
The aligners from Invisalign are virtually invisible and very comfortable thanks to their proprietary SmartTrack® material and custom-fit.
We recommend wearing your aligners for 20-22 hours per day to allow for the best results. You can remove your aligners to enjoy meals and drinks and to brush or floss your teeth.
Each set of aligners shifts your teeth a little bit closer to their optimal position. Dr. Marrecau usually recommends that you change your aligners every week and come into the office every six weeks for progress checks.
It is important to take into consideration that the work is not over once you have completed the treatment phase. Once your smile is straight and functioning at its best, you will be prescribed a retainer to maintain your results. Once again, Invisalign continues to leverage the latest technology and offers the Vivera® retainer made using the same custom-fit technology as Invisalign clear aligners.
