What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a teeth-straightening system that uses a series of clear, removable aligners instead of metal brackets and wires. Each set of aligners is custom-made just for your teeth. You wear them almost all day, swap them out every one to two weeks, and your teeth gradually shift into place. Most people won't even notice you're wearing them — that's the whole point.
Treatment time varies from person to person. Mild cases can be done in as little as six months. More involved cases may take 12 to 18 months. We'll give you a realistic estimate at your consultation based on your specific situation.
Benefits of Invisalign
- They're nearly invisible. The aligners are made from a smooth, clear plastic. Most people you interact with every day will have no idea you're in the middle of orthodontic treatment.
- You can eat what you want. Take your aligners out before meals and eat whatever you like. No worrying about what's okay to bite into or getting food caught in brackets.
- They're comfortable. There's no metal poking at your cheeks or cutting your lips. The aligners are smooth and fit snugly over your teeth.
- Fewer office visits. You don't need to come in every few weeks for adjustments. Most patients check in every six to eight weeks, which works well for busy schedules.
- Predictable results. Before you even start, we can show you a digital preview of what your smile is expected to look like at the end of treatment.

FAQ
Have questions? We’ve got answers!
It can feel a little tight, especially when you switch to a new set of aligners. That mild pressure is normal — it's the aligners doing their job. It usually fades after the first day or two. Most patients find Invisalign much more comfortable than traditional braces.
