What is Invisalign®?
Invisalign® clear braces can straighten teeth and create a beautiful smile. Invisalign® straightens teeth by using clear aligners, which are virtually invisible when you smile. These Invisalign® aligners resemble teeth whitening trays and are securely placed around your teeth to straighten them. Clear braces are specifically designed to fit your mouth. A series of Invisalign® aligners are customized for you throughout your Invisalign® treatment to slowly straighten crooked teeth.
Benefits of Invisalign® Clear Braces:
- Straightens teeth
- Corrects overcrowding, underbites, overbites, and more
- Removable clear braces for oral hygiene
- Smooth, comfortable design
- Virtually undetectable
- Allows you to enjoy any type of food

Key Features:
Here are some key features and aspects of Invisalign® treatment:
- Clear Aligners: Invisalign aligners are made of a clear, smooth plastic material that is virtually invisible when worn. This makes them a popular choice for individuals who want a more discreet orthodontic treatment option.
- Customized Treatment Plan: A detailed treatment plan is created using advanced 3D imaging technology to map out the movement of your teeth throughout the treatment process. Patients can see a virtual representation of how their teeth will move and the final result before starting treatment.
- Removable: Invisalign aligners are removable, allowing patients to take them out for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. This feature makes it easier to maintain good oral hygiene during treatment compared to traditional braces.
- Comfort: The smooth plastic material of Invisalign aligners typically causes less irritation to the cheeks and gums compared to metal braces. The aligners are also custom-made to fit comfortably over the teeth.
- Treatment Progression: Patients wear each set of aligners for about 1-2 weeks before moving on to the next set. As they progress through the series of aligners, their teeth gradually shift into the desired position.
- Versatile: Invisalign can be used to treat a variety of orthodontic issues, including crowded teeth, gaps between teeth, overbite, underbite, crossbite, and other alignment issues.
- Regular Check-ups: Patients typically have regular check-ups with their dentist or orthodontist every 6-8 weeks to monitor progress and receive new sets of aligners.
Invisalign treatment duration can vary depending on the complexity of the case and the patient’s compliance with wearing the aligners as instructed. It is important to follow the recommended treatment plan and wear the aligners for the prescribed amount of time each day to achieve the best results.
FAQs
How does Invisalign® work?
Can I have Invisalign® after having traditional braces?
Do I always have to wear my clear braces?
Invisalign® braces should be worn continuously for the best results in the quickest time frame possible. In order for your teeth to properly shift and begin to straighten, you need to wear your clear braces whenever you are not eating, brushing, or flossing. Teeth take time to properly straighten. If you do not wear your Invisalign® aligners continuously, your teeth may not completely straighten, or the duration of your Invisalign® treatment may be prolonged.
