Instead of metal brackets & wires, Invisalign uses a series of custom-made clear aligners to gently move your teeth into alignment. Each set of aligners are worn for about one to two weeks before switching to the next set. Over time, your teeth gradually shift into their ideal positions. The aligners are comfortable, removable & practically invisible—making them a popular choice for teens & adults alike.
Invisalign is an excellent option for many patients, but the best way to know is through a professional evaluation. Below are some factors to consider.
You may be a good candidate for Invisalign if you…
- have mild to moderate crowding or spacing issues
- have overbite, underbite or crossbite concerns
- are committed to wearing the aligners for 20–22 hours per day
- want a discreet way to straighten your teeth
- prefer fewer office visits & more daily life flexibility
Invisalign may not be ideal if you…
- have very complex bite or alignment issues
- struggle with wearing aligners consistently
- frequently misplace removable items
Every smile is different, & the best way to know if you are a good candidate is through a personalized consultation. During your consultation, we will evaluate your teeth, discuss your goals & determine whether Invisalign is the best option for achieving your dream smile.
