Invisalign Beirut Lebanon

Dr. Bardawil is an Expert Certified Invisalign® Provider.

What is Invisalign®?

Invisalign® has changed the face of orthodontics. Instead of wires attached to your teeth, your teeth can now be straightened invisibly.

• Invisalign® is clear.You can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing.
• Invisalign® is removable. Unlike braces, you can eat and drink what you want during treatment. You can also brush and floss normally to maintain good oral hygiene.
• Invisalign® is comfortable. No metal brackets or wires to cause mouth irritation, and less time in the dentist’s chair getting adjustments.

The Invisalign® process has been proven effective in clinical research and in orthdontic practices nationwide. However, only a certified dentist like ours can undertake this procedure.

How Does Invisalign® Work?

• A set of aligners are worn for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
• As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move – little by little, week by week – until they have straightened to the final position the dentist has prescribed.
• You will visit us approximately once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.
• Total treatment time averages 11 months with the average number of aligners worn during treatment between 18 and 30. This of course will vary from case to case.

The aligners are made through a combination of our dentists’ expertise and 3-D computer imaging technology provided by the Invisalign® company.
Don’t hesitate to contact us to discuss any aspect of your dental health – we don’t charge for giving advice!

Invisalign-Clear Tooth Aligners by Dr.George Bardawil

Introduced in 1999 by Align Technologies, Invisalign incorporates a series of

invisible (clear) plastic aligners that fit comfortably over your teeth and are

designed to move your teeth gradually into the desired position. Today, Invisalign

is a leading brand of orthodontic appliance, primarily because the removable

aligners (less than one millimeter thick) are designed to be more esthetically

pleasing than conventional wire-and-bracket dental braces for treating certain

types of minor misaligned tooth problems.

How Invisalign Works

The use of a series of removable

aligners for the adjustment of

occlusion (bite) is not new. The

Invisalign method is based on a

concept first introduced in the 1940s and revisited in the 1970s that required a

series of dental impressions to determine the optimal position of the teeth. The

Invisalign method is simpler than its predecessors, requiring only one set of

impressions and photographs of the teeth, taken during an initial consultation.

These impressions are used to create a three-dimensional computer projection of

how the teeth could be moved incrementally, forming the basis for developing a

series of custom-made aligners designed to accomplish this movement.

Invisalign aligners are manufactured using computer-aided design/computeraided

manufacturing (CAD/CAM) processes. The aligners are sent to the dentist,

who typically dispenses them in groups of one or two at a time during regular

check-up appointments (about every four to six weeks) so that treatment can be

properly managed. Each aligner must be worn in its specific order for about two

weeks, during which time it moves the teeth in small increments of about .25

millimeters to .33 millimeters. Although the aligners are removable (for eating,

drinking certain beverages and brushing/flossing), they must be worn at least 20

hours a day in order to reposition the teeth successfully.

A typical Invisalign treatment requires 20 to 30 aligners for both the upper and

lower teeth. Most adults complete their treatment in less than one year. However,

treatment time depends on the specific alignment problem.

Invisalign: Clear Tooth Aligners by Dr.George Bardawil Invisalign Certified Provider.

Invisalign, clear tooth aligners are one of the more popular

alternatives for those who find the idea of a mouthful of metal

braces and brackets too unattractive to commit to. If you are a

candidate for Invisalign or other "invisible braces," you don't

have to sacrifice your smile while straightening your teeth.

Invisalign Instructions :    

• Wear the aligners full time. Take aligners out only to brush, floss, and eat. Each aligner should be worn for 2 weeks at a time, unless Dr. Bardawil specifies differently. NEVER SKIP ALIGNERS. EACH SET MUST BE WORN EXACTLY AS DIRECTED BY DR. BARDAWIL
• You may drink with your aligners in. Colored drinks and smoking may discolor your aligners, just as they discolor your teeth, but keep in mind, every 2 weeks you are moving to a new set.
• Do not throw any of your aligners away. Bring your last set with you to every appointment.
• If you have tooth colored attachments, check them daily.  If one happens to come off, call our office so we can decide if we need to add enough time to your next appointment to repair it.
• If you lose an aligner, wear the next sequential aligner if you have it. If not, wear the immediate previous aligner. It is extremely important to wear something to prevent the teeth from shifting. Then, call our office so we can advise you regarding what to do next.
• When you begin wearing a new set of aligners, they may not fit quite like you think they should. This is normal. It is important that they fit well after the 2 week period. If they do not fit well, it may be best to wear them for an extra week. If you have any questions, call our office.
• When changing to your next set of aligners, doing so at night allows easier removal in the morning, and minimizes any discomfort that you may have.
• Occasionally, you may have a sharp edge on an aligner. You may use an emery board to smooth it. If it is still rough or sharp, call our office so we can make you comfortable.
• You may clean aligners with a toothbrush and toothpaste. We do not recommend mouthwash by itself. The aligners tend to pick up the strong color in the mouthwash.
• If you have any kind of pets, keep your aligners in the case and out of the pet’s reach. They love the smell of your saliva, and will eat through the case and the aligners.
• Please make sure you make your next appointment before you leave the office after each visit. Your appointments will usually be every 6 weeks, unless Dr. Bardawil directs you otherwise
