For this year&#8217;s birthday, he told me that I could do anything I want with my smile to fix it. I&#8217;ve been looking at options and decided I want to get my teeth whitened and get Invisalign. It looks like I get new aligners every two weeks. So, my only hesitation is that I have six kids. Yes, I know what causes that. I&#8217;ve heard all the jokes so don&#8217;t bother. They&#8217;re all under the age that I can leave them home safely and babysitters for that amount of children are expensive, as you can imagine. Do you think the dentist will let me come less than every two weeks? <\/p>\n<p>Tamar<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p>Dear Tamar,<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Invisalign-300x206.jpg\" alt=\"Invisalign aligner\" width=\"300\" height=\"206\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2230\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Invisalign-300x206.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Invisalign-768x528.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Invisalign.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll find that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/invisalign.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Invisalign<\/a> has a very high patient satisfaction rate, so I think you will be remarkably happy with your choice. I also have a couple of pieces of good news for you. <\/p>\n<p>First, even though you switch out the aligners every two weeks, your dentist will give you two pairs of aligners at a time. That means you would likely only need to go in once a month. However, given your situation. I think as long as there are not any complicating factors with your case, if you explain things to your dentist, he may be willing to let you come in even less.<\/p>\n<p>Second, the aligners you will use to straighten your teeth can also double as teeth whitening trays. This means you can straighten and whiten your teeth at the same time. This will save you additional money because you will not need to have custom fitted teeth whitening trays made. Instead, you&#8217;ll just need your dentist to provide you with the whitening gel which you can wear in your Invisalign trays at your convenience. <\/p>\n<p>Even dentists who only offer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/zoom_whitening.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Zoom Whitening<\/a> will be able to provide you with whitening gel to use. <\/p>\n<p>This blog is brought to you by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Lafayette, LA Dentists<\/a> Drs.
