Ask Dr. Agahi: Who really benefits from Invisalign®?

Part of what make clear aligners such as Invisalign "work" is that the treatment is customized for pretty much anyone. To find out if you are the right candidate for Invisalign treatment at Smiles by Farrah Orthodontics, the first thing we do is to take an impression of your teeth as they are now - and digitize it. Then we look at the positioning of your teeth and compare it to the way your teeth should look.

Next, Dr. Agahi uses special software to map out the exact path your teeth will take during your treatment. Based on the results, a set of custom aligners are created just for your teeth. Throughout the course of treatment, you will be required to wear these clear, removable aligners one at a time; each one will move your teeth closer and closer to their final, perfectly aligned position. But the best thing about it all? Nobody around you will even know you are wearing braces!

Dr. Farrah Agahi is a certified Invisalign provider in Austin. If you have questions about Invisalign, or would like to find out if you are a candidate for Invisalign treatment, please give us a call.
