The Invisalign Process
Invisalign can straighten your teeth in as little as 12-18 weeks. While you’ll visit Dr. Borham periodically for check-ups, the Invisalign process is simple and allows you to spend less time at our office and more time doing what you love.
Step 1 — Visit Dr. Borham for your initial consultation and so he can take 3D digital images of your teeth using his advanced technology. He will also show you a simulation of what your teeth will look like after Invisalign as well.
Step 2 — Once your aligners have been custom created to fit your smile, you’ll visit our office to pick up your first set.
Step 3 — Wear your aligners for at least 20-22 hours a day. You may take them out to eat and for special occasions, but should be left in for most of the day for accurate results.
Step 4 — You’ll visit our office every 6-8 weeks to receive your next sets of clear aligners.

How 100% At- Home Aligners Compare to Invisalign
Recently, more and more clear aligner brands have been creating their own versions of Invisalign. They claim to be less expensive but just as effective — but are they?
Unlike Invisalign, many clear braces companies offer online services to upload photos of your teeth. They then create your aligners and mail them directly to your home.
While this method seems more convenient, it doesn’t require you to check in with a dentist to ensure your teeth are shifting properly. Receiving Invisalign from a professional dentist provides more accurate results due to the fact that they can take precise images using their advanced technology and can physically examine your teeth between sets to track your progress.
