Invisalign can take as little as 3 months to as long as 2 years or longer
Treatment times vary dependent upon the severity of your case. Avg treatment is from 6 months to 18 months.
The length of invisalign depends patient to patient. At times Invisalign can move teeth faster then conventional braces. However, It is best to see a dental professional to see if you are a candidate for Invisalign.
It depends on each person and the type of treatment you are going through. But they should start working immediately. However teeth need to move around to make space to allow for crowded teeth to unravel. So even when you think nothing is happening, they are. Make sure the aligners go all the way down in order for the aligners to be effective.
That’s impossible to answer without knowing how many aligners will be prescribed. You could need refinement if you go thru all your aligners and there are some corrections that still need to be made. Or your teeth could stop tracking and require a mid course correction. Both of these will add time your treatment. Invisalign is great. But there is no answer to this question that applies to every case. The best time estimate is how many aligners were prescribed and will you be changing aligners every week or every two weeks.
