INVISALIGN ® - Straighten Your Smile With Clear Braces

It’s never been easier then before to straighten your smile. More and more adults are now considering improving the look and function of their smile by addressing the orthodontic issues. Invisalign has made it truly easy for people with busy lifestyles to straighten their smile.

With Invisalign, you don’t wear metal braces. Instead, your teeth are straightened by wearing a series of clear aligners. No one will be able to tell you are wearing them unless you tell them. The treatment is easy. You’ll receive a series of clear aligners, which you’ll wear for about 2 weeks at a time. You will need to wear them at least 20 hours in a day, except when you are eating, drinking, brushing and flossing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that uses clear, removable aligners to straighten your teeth discreetly—without the need for traditional metal braces.

You’ll wear a series of custom-made, clear aligners that gradually shift your teeth into place. Each set of aligners is worn for about 1-2 weeks before switching to the next.

Invisalign is ideal for teens and adults. For younger patients, eligibility depends on their dental development and compliance.

Invisalign can address a variety of concerns, including:

  • Crowded teeth
  • Gaps between teeth
  • Overbite, underbite, and crossbite
  • Mild to moderate alignment issues

Treatment time varies but typically ranges from 6 to 18 months, depending on the complexity of your case.

You should wear your aligners for 20 to 22 hours per day, only removing them to eat, drink (anything other than water), brush, and floss.

You may experience mild discomfort or pressure for a few days when starting a new set of aligners. This is normal and a sign that the aligners are working.

You must remove your aligners when eating or drinking anything other than water to prevent staining and damage. Always brush before putting them back in.

Typically, you’ll have checkups every 6-8 weeks so we can monitor progress and give you your next set of aligners.

Many dental insurance plans do cover Invisalign under orthodontic treatment. Our office can help you verify your coverage and explore payment options.

Rinse them with lukewarm water and gently brush them with a soft toothbrush. You can also use Invisalign Cleaning Crystals or other aligner cleaning solutions.

You’ll need to wear a retainer to maintain your new smile. We’ll provide guidance on how often and how long to wear it.

We offer personalized treatment plans, experienced Invisalign providers, and flexible financing to make your smile transformation as smooth as possible.
