Having a sense of how things will go is reassuring, and as far as your calendar is concerned, essential! With that being said, how long will an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casadysquareorthodontics.com\/invisalign-clear-aligners.html\">Invisalign<\/a> treatment take? Weeks? Months? Years?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The truth is that it depends \u2013 but don\u2019t worry. This post will go into the details!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Average Invisalign Timeline<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>On average, most patients are able to complete their Invisalign treatments within 6 to 12 months. Assuming you follow your orthodontists\u2019 instructions closely, that\u2019s a reasonable estimate. However, after your consultation with your orthodontist, you might hear a larger or smaller number. That\u2019s because it will mostly depend on the complexity of your case, and your orthodontist won\u2019t know what to plan for until they examine your teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factors That Could Make Treatment Take Longer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Patients with the following oral issues may very well need to wear Invisalign for longer than average:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Gaps between teeth.<\/strong> This can mean that there\u2019s an issue with your gum structure or that your pearly whites grew too far apart. It will take more work for Invisalign aligners to correct oral structure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Jaw misalignment.<\/strong> Similarly, if your bite is off and your jaw needs an adjustment, it will take longer for the aligners to finish nudging your jaw into place.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Severe dental crowding.<\/strong> This can occur if your mouth is too small for the number of teeth you have or if crookedness is extreme. You may require a tooth extraction to make room for straighter teeth, adding to your timeline.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Rest assured, you can still achieve a beautifully even smile in these cases. Your pearly whites might simply require more encouragement to adjust!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Consult with Your Orthodontist for The Best Results<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter how long (or short) your treatment timeline estimate is, the best way to progress through it smoothly is to talk to your orthodontist. They\u2019re the professionals, after all, and will be able to advise you on what needs to be done in order to achieve your dream smile. Listen to their instructions closely, and you\u2019ll be able to enjoy your new smile in no time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casadysquareorthodontics.com\/meet-the-orthodontist.html\">Dr. Payam Ishani<\/a> completed his specialty training in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics at the University of Nebraska Medical Center.
