Invisalign

Invisalign is a new system of straightening teeth without the use of conventional braces. A series of clear plastic aligners are utilized to create tooth movement. Moving teeth with removable aligners is not new. However, the computer program, which can generate a series of aligners with small changes is the new part.

They are virtually undetectable - no one will know you're wearing them unless you tell, easy to use and comfortable to wear. The aligners are removable so you can eat, drink, brush and floss.

It involves using a series of clear removable aligners, Invisalign straightens your teeth in a short amount of time. Change the aligners about every 2 weeks and your teeth will move a little at a time until they have moved to the final position your Invisalign Certified Dentist or Orthodontist has determined through careful computer diagnosis and treatment planning.

Treatment time:

An average Invisalign case takes about a year or a little more, start to finish. You will see your doctor about once a month to see how the treatment is progressing. Every few visits, you will be given additional aligners. The number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 to 30, but this may vary according to the treatment time.

Is Invisalign an option for me?

Invisalign can be used to treat a majority of cases for teens and adults. It can be used for minor improvements or for more complex adjustments. We can treat overly crowded or widely spaced teeth. Invisalign can also help with more extensive issues, icluding underbites, overbites and crossbites.

• Virtually invisible, most people won't notice the aligners
• Will not affect speech
