Invisalign Clear Aligners

Powerful Results That Fit Your Lifestyle

The Invisalign Difference

For some of our patients, traditional braces don’t fit into their lifestyle. Invisalign is a discreet treatment that gradually moves teeth into the desired position using clear aligners. These aligners are removable and virtually invisible, which means you can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing! No wires or metal brackets mean you can eat and drink what you want and brush and floss normally during treatment.

Innovative

Innovative software and scanning technology give you the exact fit for your perfect smile. This sort of precision takes the guesswork out of your treatment.

Discreet

One of the most obvious advantages to Invisalign clear aligners is that they are just that — clear! This means that you can achieve the smile you’ve always wanted without any disruption to your life.

Reliable

With over 10 million people using clear aligners to achieve their best smile, Invisalign delivers reliable results that you can count on.

Comfort

Invisalign clear aligners provide a more comfortable treatment option. Unlike metal brackets, smooth aligners mean no abrasions or irritation. Also, you can remove them to eat and still enjoy all your favorite foods during treatment!

How Invisalign Works

Convenient Treatment Options And Reliable Results

Schedule An Appointment

With Invisalign clear aligners, you can be on track to your new smile in no time. Once you’ve decided on your treatment plan, we will scan your teeth to create your first set of aligners custom-made for you. Once those aligners arrive, we will check to ensure a proper fit.

After that, you will have regular checkups on your treatment progress every 6-8 weeks. When your teeth have shifted enough, we will order your next set of aligners. We repeat this process until all teeth are in the desired position and we’ve achieved your beautiful new smile!

Invisalign FAQ's

Can Invisalign Treat An Orthodontic Case?

No. While Invisalign can treat a wide variety of orthodontic needs, it does have some limitations compared to traditional metal or ceramic braces. We will help you evaluate if Invisalign is the right choice to fit your unique needs.

What Material Does Invisalign Use?

Invisalign clear aligners are made from a durable, flexible plastic specifically designed for orthodontic treatment. The aligners are FDA-approved and contain no BPA, BPS, latex, or gluten.

What if I lose or break an aligner?

If you lose or break one of your aligners, it is important that you let us know right away. We want to keep your treatment on track and will immediately order your replacement aligner.

What is the best way to clean my aligners?

The best way is to use the Invisalign Cleaning System that is available for purchase. You can also use regular toothpaste and a toothbrush. Just remember, never place your aligners in hot water as it could permanently warp them.

Do I wear my aligners all day?

Yes. You will wear your Invisalign clear aligners 20-22 hours a day and only remove them for short periods for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.

How long will Invisalign Treatment Take?

Every patient has different orthodontic needs. Therefore, it is hard to give an exact treatment time. On average, Invisalign treatment takes 12-18 months.
