Clear aligners like Invisalign, represent a remarkable evolution in orthodontic care, offering patients a comfortable, aesthetically pleasing, practical, and predictable way to achieve straighter teeth and healthier smiles.

Are you a good candidate for aligners?

It's important to know that aligners are effective for mild to moderate orthodontic cases. For more severe alignment problems, braces would still be the treatment of choice.

Any age restrictions?

Teenagers, young adults, and older adults all can benefit from aligners.

What to expect during the dental visit?

After clinical examination, photographs and a scan of your teeth will be taken, to create a 3D model of your teeth by the lab to help design a digital treatment plan.

How do aligners work?

Treatment will be provided in sets of aligners. Each set will move the teeth slightly until the desired result is achieved. Usually, a set is worn for 1-2 weeks to get the movement needed. Regular monitoring throughout treatment is necessary by your dentist to make sure everything is going as planned and to make any adjustments if required.
