Invisalign

Q: What is Invisalign®?
Invisalign® is an orthodontic treatment option that allows orthodontists to straighten teeth using a series of clear, removable, nearly invisible, plastic appliances called aligners.

Q: How does Invisalgin® work?
The patient meets with an Invisalign® providing orthodontist who takes records of the patient’s teeth, including impressions and develops a specific treatment plan based on that patient’s needs. Advanced 3-D imaging software is then used to generate a graphical representation of the doctor’s treatment plan. The patient wears each stage of aligners for approximately 2 weeks before switching to the next set. Week by week, the patient’s teeth are straightened.

Q: What are the primary benefits?

Nearly invisible: Straighten your teeth without anyone knowing
Removable: Eat and drink what you want
Better oral hygiene: Brush and floss normally to maintain healthy gums and teeth
Comfortable: No wires or brackets to cause mouth abrasion
