What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a system of plastic clear aligners that addresses bite malocclusions like crowded and “gapped” teeth, overbites, underbites, and more. While traditional braces use a system of brackets and wires to align teeth, Invisalign’s invisible aligner technology gently straightens your smile while giving you additional freedom.

How Invisalign Works
Orthodontic treatment works by exerting gentle pressure on the teeth, shifting them into the right position over time. Following this same principle, Invisalign treatment uses a series of plastic clear aligners to straighten teeth.
Using state-of-the-art iTero 3D imaging technology, these clear aligners are custom-fitted for every patient’s smile. Gone are the days of uncomfortable, gooey impressions! All we need to do to map your smile is use a fancy little “wand” to take a 3D picture of your mouth– no goo necessary.
Once your aligners have been created and treatment begins, you’ll need to switch out your aligners with the next set every one to two weeks. This is how Invisalign gradually changes the alignment of your teeth! Of course, we want to ensure that your smile is progressing properly so we’ll schedule a check-in for you every eight to twelve weeks until your treatment is complete.
