How long does Invisalign® take?

The answer to that question is different for every patient and is highly dependent on their specific needs and level of compliance during treatment. Here's what you should know. 

Determining Invisalign® Treatment Time Frames

Each patient has different needs when it comes to straightening their teeth. For example, if you just have one or two gaps to close between your teeth, your treatment won't take as long as someone who needs to correct their bite. 

The average treatment time frame for most patients is 10 to 18 months. The best way to determine what your time frame might be is to book an evaluation with Dr. Chan.

He will collect information about your teeth that will allow him to determine if treatment with Invisalign is right for you and create a treatment plan. He will also be able to give you an estimate of your treatment time frame. 

Compliance Is the Key

Wearing your clear aligners for 20 to 22 hours daily is the key to completing treatment on time. Being diligent about wearing your aligners daily keeps your teeth moving and ensures your treatment stays on track.
