Teeth Braces

If you want a straighter smile and healthier teeth and gums, orthodontic treatment may help. Invisalign can address many orthodontic issues while offering exceptional results without the discomfort or embarrassment of traditional braces, for about the same cost.

Straighter teeth give you more than a great smile - they also help to reduce your risk for tooth decay and gum disease. If left untreated by a dentist, tooth decay and gum disease can cause mouth sores, tender or bleeding gums, bad breath and possible tooth loss. Treatment with Invisalign can assist with straight teeth, helping you to avoid problems such as an improper bite, difficulty speaking or chewing, and jaw problems.

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign has changed the face of orthodontics. Instead of wires attached to your teeth, your teeth can now be straightened invisibly.

Invisalign is clear.You can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing.Invisalign is removable. Unlike braces, you can eat and drink what you want during treatment. You can also brush and floss normally to maintain good oral hygiene.Invisalign is comfortable. No metal brackets or wires to cause mouth irritation, and less time in the dentists chair getting adjustments.The Invisalign process has been proven effective in clinical research and in orthdontic practices nationwide. However, only a certified dentist like ours can undertake this procedure.

How Does Invisalign Work?

A set of aligners are worn for about 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 the final position the dentist has prescribed.You will visit us approximately once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.

Total treatment time averages 11 months with the average number of aligners worn during treatment between 18 and 30. This of course will vary from case to case.

The aligners are made through a combination of our dentists expertise and 3-D computer imaging technology provided by the Invisalign company.
