Patients, who are dissatisfied with the overall look of their teeth, achieve incredible results with invisalign. For teeth that are slightly to moderately crooked, Invisalign can correct the alignment, to create a stunning smile that’s all yours.

A series of clear retainers are fabricated in a lab, to support and manipulate the teeth into their new position. Worn 20-22 hours per day, the aligners are a discreet, and convenient method of straightening teeth.

Is Invisalign better than regular braces?

Regular braces are not ideal for adults with working and personal lives. The inability to remove regular braces for certain life events can be quite inconvenient. Invisalign can be popped out of the mouth in an instant, for anytime you’d rather not share your secret with those around you. Invisalign is removed for eating and cleaning, eliminating awkwardness, and ensuring nothing gets stuck or left behind after mealtimes.

How does Invisalign work?

Impressions are made of the teeth, and x-rays taken, to determine the natural movement and direction of the teeth. The Invisalign technician makes a series of aligners, based off the mold, and the desired end result for teeth. Around once a week, the dentist checks the progress, and teeth graduate to the next aligner in the series. Results are dependent on the patient adhering to the program, and wearing the retainers for the recommended 20-22 hours per day.

Does Invisalign work for everyone?

Most patients with overall healthy teeth are good candidates for Invisalign. Sometimes some additional work is required beforehand to ensure its complete success.
