Correct Your Smile with Invisalign

Straighter Teeth on Your Terms.

Straightening your teeth has never been more convenient and discreet. Invisalign is a clear aligner system that serves as an alternative to conventional bracket-and-wire braces.

What is Invisalign?

The Invisalign system is an orthodontic device consisting of clear, plastic retainers that are used to slowly alter the position of your teeth. Most patients with crooked, gapped, or crowded teeth, as well as an overbite, underbite, or crossbite are potential candidates for Invisalign treatment. Aligners are custom-made for each patient using 3D scans of their teeth, developing a personalized treatment roadmap that offers a digital representation of your future straightened smile.

When worn as directed for 20-22 hours each day – removing only to eat, drink, or brush your teeth – your teeth will gradually shift into the desired position. It’s discreet, convenient, and can sometimes work faster than traditional metal braces. Treatment time will vary depending on the severity of misalignment and compliance.

What are the Benefits of Invisalign?

There are many benefits to Invisalign, not the least of which is a beautiful, straight smile. Dental professionals use 3D technology to ensure your results are predictable and meet your long-term goals. In the short term, you can also expect:

Virtually undetectable orthodontic treatment
No unsightly, uncomfortable brackets and wires
Metal-free alternative with efficient results
Removable to eat, drink, brush, and floss

Invisalign is designed to fit into your life, not the other way around. Live life on your terms while accomplishing your smile goals!

What to Expect During the Invisalign Process

At your first appointment, your dental team will provide a comprehensive evaluation of your teeth and discuss your specific goals, as well as take digital 3D scans of your teeth. They then send your digital scans to the Invisalign laboratory to create your custom aligners.

The number of aligners you receive will vary depending on your individual treatment plan. Once they arrive, you can start wearing them and, every two weeks, swap out the aligner for the next in the series as your teeth begin to shift into the desired place.

At the end of the treatment process, you will have a brilliant, straight smile that leaves you excited for what’s next. After Invisalign treatment is complete, the patient receives custom retainers to wear only at night, ensuring your teeth don’t shift out of place over time.
