What Is Invisalign®?
Invisalign is an orthodontic system that uses a series of clear, removable trays to gently move your teeth into better alignment. Each aligner is custom-designed to apply controlled pressure, guiding your teeth with comfort and precision. The trays are nearly invisible, making them a subtle choice for daily wear.
- Clear and discreet aligners: Blend in with your natural smile, so most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them.
- Removable trays: Allow you to eat, drink, and brush your teeth without changing your routine.
- Smooth plastic design: No metal brackets or wires to cause irritation or rubbing.
- Custom-made fit: Each aligner is crafted to fit your teeth at every stage of the process.

The Invisalign® Process
Your Invisalign journey begins with a digital scan that creates a map of how your teeth should shift over time. Once your aligners are ready, you’ll wear each set for about two weeks, moving through the series as your smile improves. We’ll check in periodically to make sure things are progressing smoothly.
- Mess-free digital scans: Advanced imaging replaces old-fashioned molds for a better experience.
- Tailored treatment plan: Predicts tooth movement and treatment timeline with precision.
- Gradual progress: Each aligner shifts your teeth slightly for steady, noticeable results.
- Continued support: Our team monitors your progress and adjusts as needed to keep you on track.
