Introduction to Invisalign
In the United States, most Invisalign treatments are provided by general dentists. Invisalign is a brand of clear, removable orthodontic aligners that are used to straighten teeth. The aligners are custom-made for each patient based on a series of precise dental impressions and X-rays.
In the past, orthodontic treatment was typically provided by specialist orthodontists. However, in recent years, there has been a trend towards general dentists providing orthodontic treatment, including Invisalign. This is due in part to advances in technology, which have made it easier for general dentists to offer orthodontic treatment, as well as the increasing demand for clear aligners like Invisalign.
According to the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO), more than 50% of Invisalign treatments in the United States are now provided by general dentists. This trend is expected to continue as more dentists receive training in Invisalign treatment and as demand for clear aligners grows.
Overall, the trend towards general dentists providing Invisalign treatment has made it more convenient for patients to access orthodontic care. By working closely with an orthodontist or a general dentist trained in Invisalign treatment, patients can achieve a beautiful, straight smile without the need for traditional metal braces
