There have been a lot of questions on this board about how Invisalign treatment appointments work. I've put together a general outline of a typical course of treatment. After the first set of trays, it's simply time to repeat the steps starting with impressions, with or without removing attachments. Hope this helps!
We're well into the New Year at Markham Centre Orthodontics and have been seeing a lot of interest in Invisalign clear braces to straighten teeth and improve smiles.
Below is an approximate timeline for your appointments:
1. Comprehensive complimentary consultation with records- 1 hour
2. PVS impressions- 20-30 min (may be combined with consult visit)
3. Initial Invisalign Insertion and Instructions- 20-30 min
4. Placement of attachments and instructions on aligner insertion and removal- 45min to 1 hr
5. Checking current aligner and dispensing subsequent aligners- 15min. Add approximately 15min if IPR is required
6. Attachment removal, and final/progress records, and PVS imp for refinement/mid course correction or retainer impressions if required- 45min to 1hr
7. Retention visits- 10-15min
