Invisalign®
Invisalign® are the modern and convenient way to straighten your teeth. Invisalign® has changed the face of orthodontics. Instead of wires attached to your teeth, your teeth can now be straightened invisibly.
Invisalign® is clear.
You can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing.
Invisalign® is removable.
Unlike braces, you can eat and drink what you want during treatment. You can also brush and floss normally to maintain good oral hygiene.
Invisalign® is comfortable.
No metal brackets or wires to cause mouth irritation, and less time in the dentist’s chair getting adjustments.

How Does Invisalign® treatment work?
Step 1
Start your Invisalign treatment with a free exam at our office. The exam we will determine whether or not you are a good candidate for Invisalign treatment.
Step 2
Once we determine you are a good candidate for Invisalign, we take dental records. The records include photographs of your teeth and face, digital scan of your teeth and gums with Itero® Scanner and x-rays.
We send them off to Invisalign with detailed instructions on how we want the teeth to be moved.
Step 3
We work with Invisalign to make sure the smile is restored. The aligners are made through a combination of our dentists’ expertise and 3-D computer imaging technology provided by the Invisalign®.
Step 4
A set of aligners are worn for 2 week, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move – little by little, week by week – until they have straightened to the final position the dentist has prescribed.
You will visit us approximately once every 4 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned. You can learn more about Invisalign here.
