Invisalign®
Invisalign clear aligners show that orthodontic treatment doesn’t have to be complicated. These innovative appliances have helped millions straighten their teeth and improve their smiles, and they can help you, too.
Invisalign Aligners
Invisalign aligners offer a discreet and comfortable way to straighten your teeth. These clear trays fit snugly over your teeth and work continuously to improve alignment and spacing without the look of traditional braces.
Each set of aligners is custom-made using models of your current smile and the outcome you want to achieve. You’ll change to a new set about once a week, with each tray making gradual adjustments until treatment is complete, typically within 6 to 24 months. Invisalign aligners are removed only for eating, drinking, and cleaning, making them a convenient and flexible option for everyday life.

How does the Invisalign process work?
The Invisalign process starts with a consultation where your dentist takes digital scans to map out your tooth movement and create custom aligners. You’ll wear each set of clear aligners for about one week, with each tray gently shifting your teeth closer to the desired position. The aligners are removed only for eating, drinking, and cleaning. Regular check-ins help track progress until your new smile is complete, usually within 6 to 24 months.

What's the difference between Invisalign and braces?
Invisalign uses clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly, while braces rely on metal or ceramic brackets and wires that stay fixed in place. Invisalign offers more flexibility and is nearly invisible, while braces can be better for complex orthodontic cases. Both options effectively straighten teeth, but the right choice depends on your needs, lifestyle, and treatment goals.

Who is a good candidate for Invisalign?
A good candidate for Invisalign is someone with mild to moderate alignment issues such as crowding, gaps, or minor bite problems. Invisalign works well for teens and adults who want a discreet, removable alternative to braces and are committed to wearing the aligners as directed. A consultation with your dentist can determine if Invisalign is the right option for your smile goals.
