Questions to Ask Invisalign Dentists

Phoenix, Mesa, Tempe and Scottsdale, AZ Cosmetic Dentistry

Am I a good candidate for Invisalign?

An experienced Invisalign dentist knows what Invisalign can correct, as well as what it cannot correct. An Invisalign dentist is able to determine the severity of the following situations:

• Overbite
• Underbite
• Crossbite
• Crooked teeth
• Rotated teeth
• Spaced teeth
• Crowded teeth

Depending on the severity and nature of the above issues, your dentist determines if Invisalign can correct your specific dental issues or if you require traditional braces.

Is Invisalign the best solution for me?

A good Invisalign dentist offers many options to meet patient needs. In some cases, teeth may not need Invisalign at all. It may be the case that you will benefit more from a cosmetic procedure like porcelain veneers.

Invisalign dentists Dr. Scott LeSueur and Dr. Charles Dodaro are committed to finding the treatment that fits your needs. After a consultation, they can assess whether your teeth and bite require an orthodontic solution like Invisalign.

How much experience do you have with Invisalign?

You may want to choose an Invisalign provider who has:

• Previously treated patients with Invisalign
• Continues to use Invisalign regularly

A dentist who routinely uses a treatment will be more familiar, knowledgeable and adept in that treatment.   Dr. LeSueur and Dr. Dodaro are Invisalign Preferred Providers which means they treat patients with Invisalign on a very regular basis and maintain a very high skill level with the procedure including getting regular update training.

May I see before-and-after photos of your Invisalign patients?

Many dentists have before-and-after photo galleries displaying real patient cases. Viewing these photos lets you see examples of Invisalign results your dentist has accomplished. You may even be able to see a photo of a patient with dental issues similar to yours, which may give you a good idea of what Invisalign can accomplish for you.

What can I expect from the Invisalign process?

Before choosing Invisalign, you should be fully informed of what to expect. The Invisalign process demands a great deal of commitment, including wearing the removable aligners for at least 22 hours a day.

Your Invisalign dentist will also let you know about the benefits of the process. The fact that you can remove the aligners means you can continue to enjoy all of your favorite foods, and you remove the trays to brush and floss your teeth with ease.
