Consider Invisalign® to get the beautiful straight teeth you’ve always wanted — without braces. A consultation with our doctor can determine if treatment with Invisalign is right for you.
What is it?
Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable, and comfortable aligners that no one can tell you’re wearing.
Invisalign trays are made with 3D computer imaging technology and have been proven effective. More than 70% of orthodontists in the US and Canada are certified to treat with Invisalign.
Why would I want it?
Not only are the aligners invisible, they are removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment. Brushing and flossing remain the same as the aligners are removed. The aligners are also comfortable, with no metal to cause mouth abrasions during treatment.
No metal and wires usually means you spend less time in your doctor’s office getting adjustments. Patients are typically seen every 8-12 weeks for appointments.
How does it work?
You wear each set of aligners for one to two weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you progress along the series of aligners, your teeth will move — little by little, week by week — until they have straightened to their final positions.
You’ll visit us about once every 8-12 weeks to ensure your treatment is progressing as planned. Total treatment time typically lasts nine to 18 months, and the number of aligners is between 18 and 30, but both numbers will vary from patient to patient.
