About Invisalign®

Invisalign® clear aligners can help you easily and comfortably straighten your smile.

Questions & answers

What is the Invisalign system?

Invisalign treatment can be a great alternative to traditional metal braces. It consists of a series of clear plastic aligners made to fit your smile. They are comfortable to wear and can be removed for meals and for cleaning. Their most popular feature is their clarity. Because they are transparent and fit directly against the teeth, they are practically impossible for anyone to see.

What is the Invisalign process?

Your treatment will begin with a visit with our dentists to see if Invisalign is the right treatment for you. Then, we will take digital impressions of your smile. Those impressions will be sent to lab and used to create your series of aligners. You will wear each set of aligners for a prescribed amount of time before switching to the next set. During your treatment, your teeth will be gently moved into their proper positions.

How do I care for my aligners?

You will find that your aligners are very easy to care for! We will provide you with a case to hold your aligners while you eat or play sports. The aligners are removed for cleaning, which can be done with a simple solution of soap or warn water or a nonabrasive toothpaste and soft-bristled toothpaste. Invisalign also offers a solution designed to clean your appliances.

About Invisalign

WHAT IS INVISALIGN®?

Invisalign® clear aligners straighten your teeth comfortably and discreetly. Our skilled orthodontists may recommend this treatment as an alternative to traditional metal braces to help you achieve a more beautiful smile while also maintaining a natural appearance. Call Dentistry and Braces Group today to schedule a consultation and learn if Invisalign treatment is right for you.

WHY CHOOSE INVISALIGN?

Invisalign® clear aligners are a great choice for patients who are searching for a more discreet orthodontic treatment option for straightening their smile. Rather than using metal brackets and wires like traditional braces, the Invisalign system uses a series of custom-made, computer-generated plastic aligners to straighten teeth. Each set of aligners is designed to make small changes to the alignment of the teeth. As you switch sets of aligners about every two weeks, your teeth will gradually and gently move to their proper positions. You will also visit our office on a regular basis during treatment to make certain that your smile is progressing as planned.
In general, Invisalign clear aligners can be used to treat the same orthodontic issues that are normally treated with braces. Our dentists may recommend Invisalign treatment to correct:

Crowded teeth
Crooked teeth
Gapped and spaced teeth
Certain problems with the bite, such as an overbite, open bite, underbite or crossbite

During your initial visit, we will determine whether you are a good candidate for Invisalign treatment. This treatment is often a good choice for adult patients and others who are interested in a virtually invisible orthodontic treatment. In addition to being discreet, Invisalign clear aligners are very comfortable because they are custom made from smooth, thin plastic. The aligners are removable as well, which allows you to easily remove them as needed to eat, brush and floss. We welcome you to call or visit us today to learn more about Invisalign clear aligners.
