Invisalign - Get Straight Teeth With Clear Aligners
Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment system that will give you beautiful, straight teeth without the discomfort and appearance of traditional braces.
Customized plastic trays, called aligners, are used to bring your teeth into the correct alignment gently. Invisalign can correct most problems that traditional braces can fix from crooked teeth to issues with your bite.
The aligners are worn at night and throughout the day and should only be removed for eating and brushing and flossing. They are virtually invisible, and most people will never know that you are wearing them.
Invisalign is available for both teenagers and adults. The average treatment lasts about 12 to 15 months, but every plan is personalized for the individual patient, so your treatment time may be longer or shorter. We will work with you to create your customized plan and keep you informed of the progress you are making.
Why Choose Invisalign?
Invisalign has numerous advantages over traditional braces:
Traditional braces require frequent appointments to tighten the wires and check the condition of the braces. With Invisalign, you just switch to the next set of aligners, which are created according to the order of treatment laid out by you and your dentist.
Braces can leave permanent marks on your teeth from the brackets. Even with good oral hygiene habits, plaque can still gather around the brackets and cause damage to the enamel of your teeth.
Invisalign allows you to eat any foods you want without the restrictions on sticky or crunchy foods that are known for damaging the wires and brackets of traditional braces.
The wires of traditional braces can poke at your mouth and cause pain and even injury. A broken wire often means an additional visit to your dentist or orthodontist.
