Invisalign – Straighten your Teeth with the Clear Alternative to Braces

Many of our new patients tell us that they'd like to improve their smile but they don't want to wear braces. They are looking for something that will suit their lifestyle, won’t be as obvious as metal braces, and will be comfortable and easy to keep clean.

With Invisalign, we can offer patients the alternative they are looking for. Invisalign is the clear way to straighten teeth without traditional brackets and wires, using aligners. With Invisalign, you can get the smile you want, discreetly and comfortably.




What are Invisalign Aligners?
Aligners are a clear and removable orthodontics solution which are custom-made for you, and only you. Because they are removable, you can brush and floss normally to maintain healthy teeth and gums. Also, there are no wires, metal or brackets to cause mouth abrasions.


How do they work?
Your Invisalign treatment will consist of a series of aligners that you switch out about every two weeks. Each aligner is individually manufactured with exact calculations to gradually shift your teeth into place.
· You wear each set of Aligners for about two weeks.
· Remove only to eat and drink, brush and floss.
· Your teeth will move gradually each week.
· Visit us every 8-10 weeks.
