We can help you choose which Invisalign® treatment is best for you during your initial consultation.
Are You Eligible for Invisalign®?
During your consultation, we will help you decide if your case is eligible for Invisalign® treatment. Invisalign® can treat mild to complex cases of misalignment, addressing concerns such as:
Gapped teeth
Underbite
Overbite
Crowded teeth
Open bite
Crossbite
This orthodontic treatment is appropriate for both teens and adults. Before initiating Invisalign® treatment, we will assess your overall oral health and address any cavities or plaque so that you begin treatment with a healthy foundation.
How Does Invisalign® Work?
To begin, we will first create impressions of your smile and design a custom treatment plan based on the nature and severity of your misalignment. You will receive a series of clear, custom-created Invisalign® aligners, which should be worn at least 22 hours a day, every day. In order for your treatment to be most effective, your aligners should only be removed when eating or brushing your teeth.
Invisalign® can provide long-lasting oral health benefits without compromising the look of your smile.
During the course of your treatment, you will wear a new set of trays every one to two weeks and visit our office every six weeks to allow us to monitor your progress. Each aligner subtly and gently adjusts your smile toward a straighter and more symmetrical end result. The duration of your treatment will depend on your specific case, but adults can expect to undergo Invisalign® treatment for an average of 12 months.
Benefits of Invisalign® Treatment
For the right candidates, Invisalign® treatment can have several benefits over traditional orthodontic braces.
Better Oral Hygiene
For the right candidates, Invisalign® treatment can have several benefits over traditional orthodontic braces.
No Food Restrictions
Aligners are removable and make it possible for patients to eat the foods they love without worrying about damaging their orthodontic equipment. You can enjoy your favorite foods, which may be restricted with traditional braces.
Virtually Invisible
Your aligners will be made of a special plastic material that is practically invisible to others. Your trays will be customized to your teeth and will fit snugly and securely.
Greater Comfort
Invisalign® materials are gentle, whereas traditional metal braces can cause irritation in the mouth or require additional treatment if brackets break.

Propel instruments stimulate your jawbone and can speed movement, causing teeth to shift faster than they would with standard Invisalign® treatment. We will guide you through the entire Invisalign® process and provide virtual results for you to preview your smile.
