Invisalign: The Clear Path to a Confident Smile
Discover the Power of Discreet Orthodontics
Dreaming of a straighter, more confident smile but dreading the thought of traditional metal braces? Invisalign offers a revolutionary, virtually invisible way to transform your smile discreetly and comfortably. Using a series of custom-made, clear aligners, Invisalign gradually shifts your teeth into their ideal position, allowing you to achieve the smile you've always wanted without the brackets and wires.
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is an advanced orthodontic treatment system that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth. These aligners are custom-made for your teeth using 3D computer imaging technology. You wear each set of aligners for about 1-2 weeks, 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 their final prescribed position.
Key Features & Technology
- Virtually Invisible: Made from a clear, proprietary SmartTrack® material, Invisalign aligners are almost unnoticeable, allowing you to straighten your teeth without anyone knowing.
- Custom-Made for Precision: Each aligner is individually manufactured to fit your teeth precisely, ensuring optimal comfort and effective tooth movement.
- Removable Convenience: Unlike fixed braces, Invisalign aligners can be removed for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing, allowing for excellent oral hygiene and no food restrictions.
- SmartTrack® Material: This innovative, highly elastic material provides gentle, constant force to move teeth more predictably and comfortably, resulting in faster and more efficient treatment.
- iTero Element™ Scanner Integration: Many providers use the iTero Element scanner to create fast, precise 3D digital impressions of your teeth, eliminating uncomfortable traditional putty impressions.
- ClinCheck® Software: This sophisticated 3D treatment planning software allows your doctor to map out your entire treatment, showing you a virtual representation of how your teeth will move and what your final smile will look like before you even start.

Who is Invisalign For?
Invisalign can effectively treat a wide range of orthodontic issues for both teens and adults, including:
- Crowded Teeth: When there isn't enough space in your jaw for your teeth to fit normally.
- Gaps & Spacing: When there's too much space between your teeth.
- Overbite: When the upper front teeth overlap the lower front teeth.
- Underbite: When the lower teeth protrude past the upper front teeth.
- Crossbite: When some upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth.
- Open Bite: When the upper and lower teeth don't meet when the mouth is closed.
- General Straightening: For those seeking cosmetic improvement and a healthier bite.
(A comprehensive consultation with an Invisalign provider is essential to determine if Invisalign is the right treatment option for your specific needs.)
The Invisalign Treatment Process
- Initial Consultation: Your journey begins with a detailed examination by an experienced Invisalign provider. They will assess your smile, discuss your goals, and determine if Invisalign is suitable for you.
- Custom Treatment Plan: Using a digital scanner (like iTero Element™), precise 3D images of your teeth are taken. Your doctor will then use the ClinCheck® software to create a personalized treatment plan, showing you how your teeth will move and the projected final result.
- Receive Your Aligners: Once your custom aligners are fabricated, you'll receive your first set. Your doctor will provide instructions on how to wear and care for them.
- Wear & Progress: You'll wear each set of aligners for 20-22 hours a day for about 1-2 weeks before moving to the next set in your series.
- Regular Check-ups: You'll have periodic check-ups with your doctor every 6-8 weeks to monitor your progress and receive your next sets of aligners.
- Retention: Once your treatment is complete, you'll receive a custom-made Vivera® retainer to wear, which helps maintain your beautiful new smile long-term.
