Your Smile, Without the Braces

A confident smile can open doors in both your personal and professional life. At Orthodontie Face & Profil, we’ve helped hundreds of patients in Laval get the smile they’ve always wanted without the look and feel of traditional metal braces. Invisalign has truly changed the game of orthodontics, it’s more comfortable, convenient and discreet than ever before.

Many people put off straightening their teeth because they don’t want to wear noticeable metal braces. We totally get it, especially for adults in professional settings. That’s why we’re proud to offer Invisalign as an alternative. These clear aligners are almost invisible when worn, so you can straighten your teeth without most people even noticing you’re in treatment.

When you come to our office for an Invisalign consultation we take the time to listen to your concerns and understand what you want to achieve. Every smile is unique and we believe your treatment should be too. We use advanced digital scanning technology to create a 3D model of your teeth, so we can map out your entire treatment from start to finish. Many patients love to see a preview of how their teeth will look after treatment before even starting the process.

The Invisalign system uses a series of custom-made clear plastic aligners that fit snugly over your teeth. Each set of aligners is slightly different from the previous one, gradually shifting your teeth into their ideal positions. The aligners are made from a smooth, comfortable material that won’t irritate your cheeks and gums the way traditional braces can. Most of our patients tell us they forget they’re even wearing their aligners after the first few days.

One of the biggest advantage of Invisalign is that the aligners are removable. This means you can take them out when you eat, so there are no food restrictions during treatment. Anyone who has worn traditional braces knows how frustrating it can be to avoid certain food. With Invisalign you can keep eating all your favorite meals without worry. Just remember to brush and floss before putting your aligners back in to keep good oral hygiene during your treatment.And speaking of oral hygiene, Invisalign makes it much easier to keep your teeth clean during orthodontic treatment. With traditional braces, brushing and flossing around brackets and wires can be a pain. With Invisalign you simply remove the aligners to brush and floss normally. This prevents the buildup of plaque and reduces the risk of cavities and gum problems that can occur during orthodontic treatment. Many of our patients develop better oral hygiene habits during their Invisalign treatment.

The treatment process at Orthodontie Face & Profil is simple and convenient. After your initial consultation and the creation of your custom aligners, you’ll receive several sets at once. Each set is worn for about one to two weeks before moving to the next one in the sequence. You’ll come to our Laval office every six to eight weeks so we can check your progress and provide your next few sets of aligners. These check-up appointments are quick and easy, much shorter than adjustment appointments for traditional braces.

To get the best results, you should wear your Invisalign aligners for 20 to 22 hours a day, removing them only to eat, drink anything besides water and clean your teeth. This is important to stay on track with your treatment timeline. The good news is that the aligners are designed to fit into your daily life. You can speak normally while wearing them, though some patients notice a slight lisp during the first few days as they get used to wearing the aligners.

Taking care of your Invisalign aligners is easy. We recommend rinsing them whenever you remove them and cleaning them daily with a soft toothbrush and lukewarm water. Avoid hot water as it can warp the plastic material. Special cleaning crystals are also available to keep your aligners clear and fresh. When you’re not wearing your aligners, store them in their protective case to prevent loss or damage. These simple habits will keep your aligners clean and effective during your treatment.

The length of Invisalign treatment varies depending on the complexity of your case. Some patients complete treatment in as little as six months, while others may need a year or more to achieve their desired results. During your consultation at our Laval office, we’ll give you an estimate of how long your treatment will take. Factors that affect treatment time include the starting position of your teeth, how much movement is needed and how consistently you wear your aligners.Invisalign can address many of the same orthodontic issues as traditional braces, including crowded teeth, gaps between teeth, overbites, underbites and crossbites. However, very complex cases may sometimes be better suited to traditional orthodontic approaches. During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your specific needs and let you know if Invisalign is the right solution for you. We’ll recommend the treatment option that will give you the best possible results, even if that means suggesting an alternative to Invisalign.

After your Invisalign treatment, you’ll need to wear retainers to keep your new smile. This is true for all orthodontic treatments, not just Invisalign. Teeth have a natural tendency to shift back to their original positions and retainers prevent this from happening. We recommend wearing retainers full-time at first then gradually transitioning to nighttime wear only. This maintenance phase is crucial to ensure your results last for years to come.

Many of our patients at Orthodontie Face & Profil tell us that getting Invisalign was one of the best decisions they ever made. Beyond the obvious improvement in the appearance of their smile, they report feeling more confident in social and professional situations. Some even notice improvements in their overall oral health, as properly aligned teeth are easier to clean. These benefits extend far beyond the cosmetic changes, improving overall quality of life.

We are proud to stay up to date with the latest Invisalign technology. Over the years the system has continued to evolve, allowing us to treat more complex cases than ever before. What was once limited to simple alignment issues can now address a wide range of orthodontic problems. This means more patients than ever can benefit from the convenience and discretion of Invisalign treatment.

The financial aspect of orthodontic treatment is important to consider. At Orthodontie Face & Profil we offer various payment plans to make Invisalign more affordable for our patients. Many dental insurance plans cover orthodontic treatment and our office staff can help you understand your benefits. We believe everyone deserves access to quality orthodontic care and we work hard to make that possible for our community.If you’ve been thinking about straightening your teeth but have been putting it off because you don’t want traditional braces, Invisalign might be the solution for you.
