What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a clear aligner system that gradually straightens your teeth using a series of custom, virtually invisible trays, without the brackets and wires of traditional braces. We also offer SureSmile as an alternative clear aligner system, depending on your needs.
How does it work?
Using a digital scan of your teeth, your dentist maps out your entire treatment plan and designs a series of custom aligners. You wear each set for about one to two weeks, gradually shifting your teeth into their final position.
What are the benefits ?
-
Virtually invisible, so most people won't notice you're wearing them
-
Removable for eating, brushing, and flossing
-
Fewer office visits than traditional braces in many cases
-
See a preview of your final smile before you even begin
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
Treatment time varies by case, typically ranging from several months to around a year and a half, depending on how much correction is needed.
Do I have to wear my aligners all the time?
For best results, aligners should be worn 20 to 22 hours a day, removing them only to eat, drink anything other than water, and clean your teeth.
Is Invisalign as effective as traditional braces?
For most cases of mild to moderate misalignment, Invisalign is highly effective. Your dentist will let you know during your consultation if your specific case is well-suited for aligners.
Will Invisalign be uncomfortable?
You may feel mild pressure for a couple of days after switching to a new set of aligners, which is a normal sign that your teeth are moving. It's generally far more comfortable than traditional braces.
