How do I get started with Invisalign?
The first step is to make your appointment for a free consult, then come in for an exam! Braces are the original, tried-and-true method for straightening smiles. During your free consultation, our doctors will complete an exam of you, or your child’s, smile and go over treatment options.
Starting treatment is easy. Blue Ridge Orthodontics uses 3D computer imaging with an iTero scanner, so no messy bite impressions are needed. The 3D scans are so precise, you can even see your stages of treatment right at the start.
How long will Invisalign take?
Each patient is different, but most treatment cases take 12 to 18 months. After your scan, you’ll receive a set of trays and instructions for wearing them. You’ll wear each tray for 20 to 22 hours a day for one to two weeks, then switch to the next.
