Invisalign

Invisalign® is an advanced orthodontic procedure that involves wearing a sequence of transparent aligners customized to slowly shift your teeth to the desired location. In contrast to traditional braces, Invisalign® doesn’t use metal brackets or wires. Instead of that, the aligners are almost impossible to see, which offers a discrete choice for straightening teeth. The aligners can be taken out for eating, brushing, & flossing, providing convenience and comfort for a lot of patients.

The duration of Invisalign® treatment is different based on how complex the case is. Treatment for mild to moderate misalignment may only last for 6 months. Nevertheless, in more intricate instances, the process could last for as long as 18 months or beyond. In your appointment, the dentist will give you an estimation of the duration of your treatment, considering the current alignment of your teeth and your desired results.

Generally, you should switch out your aligners every 1 to 2 weeks. Every consecutive aligner set is slightly modified to gradually shift your teeth towards the ultimate, desired alignment. Your dentist will offer a set schedule, but the regular changes of aligners guarantee a smooth & effective straightening process, eliminating the necessity of frequent office visits for wire and bracket adjustments as required with traditional braces.

We provide a range of versatile payment choices that can accommodate your requirements. Interest-free financing options with monthly payments are available to make Invisalign® treatment more affordable for you. Additionally, we provide extended payment plans at discounted interest rates for customers looking for a longer repayment period. We also take various forms of payment, such as credit cards, debit cards, and others.

Not unless you point it out! Invisalign® aligners are designed to be sleek, clear, and practically invisible. The aligners fit snugly against your teeth, blending in with your natural smile. Most people won’t notice you’re wearing them, even during face-to-face conversations. This makes Invisalign® a popular choice for individuals who want to straighten their teeth without the obvious appearance of traditional metal braces. You can go about your daily routine, confident that your treatment is working behind the scenes.

Yes, one of the biggest advantages of Invisalign® is that you can continue to eat all of your favorite foods. Unlike traditional braces, which require you to avoid sticky, crunchy, or hard foods, Invisalign® aligners are removable. This means you can take them out before meals and enjoy everything from popcorn to apples without worry. Just remember to brush & floss after eating to keep your teeth and aligners clean, and pop the aligners back in once you’re done.

While Invisalign® is generally more comfortable than traditional braces, you may experience some mild discomfort, especially when you start wearing a new set of aligners. This discomfort is a sign that your teeth are shifting as they should be. Most people describe it as gentle pressure rather than pain, and it typically subsides after a few days. If you experience significant discomfort, you can use over-the-counter pain relief or consult your dentist for guidance. The good news is that the aligners are smooth, with no metal parts to irritate your gums or mouth.
