Invisalign consists of a series of clear, custom-fitted aligners that straighten your teeth without the use of metal wires or brackets.

Using advanced 3D computer imaging technology in the consultation process, we will develop a treatment plan tailored to your unique smile.

A series of custom clear aligners will then be manufactured to fit your teeth precisely during each stage of the Invisalign treatment process.

Invisalign clear plastic aligners are designed to move your teeth in tiny increments as your treatment progresses. You will wear each aligner for a certain number of days before it is replaced by the next one in the series.

This process will continue until your teeth are in their desired positions. Your dentist will determine the duration of your Invisalign treatment based on your specific needs.

Your dentist will explain how long your Invisalign treatment will last based on your specific needs.

Factors that may determine the duration of your treatment include the misalignment of your teeth or jaw, the shape of your bite, and the amount of movement required to correct the problem.

The Invisalign aligners are made with USP Class VI medical-grade, high-molecular-weight polyurethane resins. They are BPA-free.

Since Invisalign aligners require no adjustments or tightening, you just switch to a new set of aligners as outlined by your dentist. Your dentist will schedule brief appointments with you approximately every 4 to 6 weeks as needed.

During these appointments, your dentist will review your progress and general oral health, answer any questions you may have, and adjust your treatment as needed.

Invisalign offers the following features:

• A discreet, low-profile appearance
• Smooth construction for enhanced comfort
• Do not require adjustment appointments
• Removable for eating, brushing and flossing

Cost will depend on the severity of your case and the duration of your treatment. For instance, the more severe the malocclusion, the more aligners you'll need, and the higher your treatment will cost. 

In many cases, the cost of Invisalign is similar to that of traditional orthodontic treatment (braces).

You may find that Invisalign fits comfortably into your day-to-day life.

You should remove your aligners whenever you need to eat, drink, brush, or floss. This means there are no additional dietary restrictions, and you will be able to brush and floss thoroughly and consistently.

Invisalign aligners are removable, allowing you to take them out to eat. As a result, there are no extra dietary restrictions with Invisalign, so you can keep enjoying all the foods you love!

To avoid staining your clear aligners and potentially damaging your teeth, we recommend removing the aligners when you consume any beverages other than regular water.

The answer to this question will depend on the severity of your misalignment.

Your dentist can provide an accurate estimate of aligners needed after evaluating your tooth position during an initial consultation.

Yes! Anyone with healthy teeth and gums is a potential candidate for Invisalign.

More adults are deciding to undergo orthodontic treatment than ever before, in large part because options like Invisalign have become available.

Yes! Teens can definitely be candidates for Invisalign. In fact, Invisalign has developed a line of aligners to address the unique needs of teenagers.

Invisalign Teen aligners have compliance indicators on them (small blue dots that fade away after the aligners have been worn enough) to help teens stay on track with their treatment.

They also come with eruption tabs that create space for second molars and help prevent them from growing in crooked.

Most patients switch to their next set of aligners approximately every two weeks. Your dentist will let you know exactly how often to change your aligners.

1. Rinse your aligners each time you remove them to help wash away dry saliva and plaque that can contribute to dental decay and bad breath.
2. Soak your aligners as needed with denture cleaner, Retainer Brite, and/or the official Invisalign cleaning crystals.
3. Brush and floss before inserting aligners. Good oral hygiene helps maintain healthy teeth and prevents cavities. Not brushing and flossing can trap food and bacteria, increasing dental problems and bad breath.
4. Clean your aligners with a clear antibacterial soap. Clear anti-bacterial soap is an excellent and inexpensive way to keep your aligners clear, fresh, and free from harmful bacteria.
5. Brush your aligners gently to avoid scratching them, and then rinse off the soap. After that, you're done!

Invisalign aligners are removable, so you can play sports without worrying about causing damage to your aligners.

However, remember that Invisalign aligners need to be worn for at least 22 hours a day, so plan your time wisely.

It is also recommended that you invest in a sports mouth guard to protect your teeth, as orthodontic treatment can cause your teeth to loosen slightly as they shift into their new positions, and this can make them more susceptible to damage.

Yes! Just remove your aligners if needed to practice playing your instrument, and put them back in when you're finished.

Your Invisalign aligners will come with a case, and this is where you should store your aligners whenever you take them out to help keep them safe. Since the aligners are made of plastic, you should avoid leaving them in hot areas, as they could deform or melt.
