Can You Get Invisalign after Braces?

Invisalign is a great treatment option that can be used on its own or in conjunction with braces. Invisalign after braces can also be a great choice for orthodontic relapse, which occurs when teeth shift out of place after treatment with braces.

Braces are often used for complex orthodontic treatments. Teeth that are twisted, severe overbites, severe crossbites, and similar problems tend to respond better to braces. However, many patients prefer the more discreet nature of Invisalign. If you have certain severe orthodontic problems, the braces may be used first and then followed by treatment with Invisalign. This can ensure you get the results you want, shorten your treatment time with braces, and still allow you to enjoy the freedom and comfort of Invisalign.

Orthodontic relapse is another common issue that can be managed with Invisalign. In fact, many patients with orthodontic relapse can complete treatment with Invisalign with just a few phases of aligners. Some patients may be eligible for Invisalign Express, which can often be completed in six months or less.

Many different treatment options are available and can be customized to meet your needs. Call us today to learn more about orthodontic treatment or to schedule your appointment with our expert in Invisalign in Huntington Beach.
