Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions? We’ve got answers! Here are some of the most common inquiries our patients have. Click each question below to learn more.
How Often Will I Need to Visit the Office During Invisalign Treatment?
Most patients visit every 8–12 weeks for quick progress checks. Since there are no wires to adjust, appointments are brief and easy to fit into a busy schedule.
Can Invisalign Treat Complex Orthodontic Problems?
Many moderate and even complex cases can be treated with Invisalign, thanks to advanced planning software and attachments. During your consultation, Dr. Riolo will determine whether aligners can effectively address your specific concerns.
How Long Do I Need to Wear My Aligners Each Day?
For best results, aligners should be worn about 22 hours per day. Only remove them for meals, brushing, flossing, or special moments when needed.
Will Invisalign Affect My Speech?
Some patients notice a slight adjustment period during the first few days. Speech typically returns to normal quickly as your tongue adapts to the smooth aligners.
Do I Still Need Retainers After Invisalign Treatment?
Yes. Just like with braces, retainers help maintain your results and prevent teeth from shifting over time.
