Invisalign® treatment: What is it? How does it work?

Crooked or misaligned teeth can be a real hassle, causing discomfort or insecurity. The thought of traditional braces, especially at an older age, is usually not a preferred solution. But with Invisalign clear braces, your teeth could be fixed quicker than you’d think.

Rather than using metal and wire, these modern braces use removable plastic aligners that gently straighten your teeth. The patients receive various-sized custom trays that apply slight resistance to the teeth. This compels them to move over time to give you the smile you’ve always wanted without feeling self-conscious about their appearance.

Invisalign® FAQs

It is the process of wearing a series of clear, removable aligners that gradually straighten your teeth. There are no brackets, wires, or restrictions that come with metal braces.

We offer Invisalign treatment for as little as $96 a month. There are lots of ways to make Invisalign treatment affordable for you. You may be able to pay with tax-free dollars from your FSA or HSA. You can also arrange a monthly payment plan using a third-party financing option in our office.

Invisalign clear aligners are made with a patented flexible plastic material called SmartTrack created exclusively for Invisalign treatment. Invisalign clear aligners are FDA-approved and contain no BPA, PBS, latex, or gluten.

The length of treatment depends on multiple factors, including how complex your case is and how often you wear your aligners. Your doctor will determine exactly how long your treatment will take based on specific needs.

Invisalign® clear aligners are removable, so there are no food restrictions. With traditional wires and brackets, there’s a long list of foods you unfortunately cannot enjoy because they can damage or get stuck in your braces.

Wear your Invisalign® aligners 20 to 22 hours a day to achieve the best result. Invisalign clear aligners fit your life. You can remove your aligners for eating, drinking, brushing, flossing, special occasions, and playing your favorite sport or instrument.

Invisalign treatment can be a great solution for both adults and teens looking for a virtually invisible method to improve their smile. Invisalign clear aligners make it possible to correct common teeth-straightening and bite issues, from simple to complex - all without interrupting your busy life.

Invisalign® treatment starts with a free consultation by an Invisalign-trained doctor. Your doctor will evaluate your smile and then map out a precise, customized digital treatment plan that showcases the step-by-step transformation of your smile.

Invisalign treatment is much more than a pretty smile. Crowded teeth are more difficult to clean, causing build-up of plaque that causes gingivitis and may lead to bone loss and periodontal disease. Invisalign clear aligners align teeth, improve periodontal hygiene, and are non-evasive, resulting in easier teeth cleaning.
