INVISALIGN ADULT

Invisalign is clear and practically invisible. Unobtrusive in business meetings or social gatherings - No metal wires or bands to irritate your mouth - Most people won't notice you're wearing aligners Over one million patients, many whom are adults, have benefited from Invisalign. Invisalign offers the clinical outcomes people want, all with a removable appliance that's virtually undetectable when worn. It's an ideal solution for the majority of adults.

INVISALIGN TEEN

Invisalign Teen is the only clear orthodontic aligner therapy designed to address the unique concerns of treating non-adult comprehensive patients. Because aligners are removable, patients can continue to eat their favorite foods and brush and floss normally to help keep teeth and gums healthy.

Invisalign Teen has all the features of Invisalign Full, plus:
  • Compliance indicators track the patient's approximate wear time and help provide reassur- ance for parents that the teen is being compliant.
  • Six free individual replacement aligners are included with Invisalign Teen to replace lost or broken aligners.
  • Many teens present for treatment with erupting permanent dentition, so Invisalign Teen has been engineered with a feature to help prevent supra eruption of the second molars.

WHY INVISALIGN

And no matter what stage you're at in life, you'll appreciate how our cutting-edge approach to treatment has minimal interference in how you live, but has a significant positive impact on how you look and feel about yourself.

HOW INVISALIGN WORKS

Invisalign® takes a modern approach to straightening teeth, using a custom-made series of aligners created for you and only you. These aligner trays are made of smooth, comfortable and virtually invisible plastic that you wear over your teeth. Wearing the aligners will gradually and gently shift your teeth into place, based on the exact movements your dentist or orthodontist plans out for you. There are no metal brackets to attach and no wires to tighten. You just pop in a new set of aligners approximately every two weeks, until your treatment is complete. You'll achieve a great smile with little interference in your daily life. The best part about the whole process is that most people won't even know you're straightening your teeth.

FAQ'S

WHAT DO ALIGNERS LOOK LIKE?

Aligners are clear and nearly invisible. If you've ever seen clear teeth-whitening trays that should give you a good idea of what the aligners look like. Invisalign aligners are custom-made to fit and move your teeth.

WILL THE TREATMENT BE PAINFUL?

Each time you change to a new aligner, there may be some temporary discomfort while your teeth adjust to their new position. This is completely normal, and is a good sign that the treatment is working.

WILL WEARING INVISALIGN ALIGNERS AFFECT MY SPEECH?

Some people are affected more than others, but most adjust in a short period of time to the feeling of the aligners and do not have permanent changes in their speech.

HOW OFTEN WILL I HAVE TO WEAR MY ALIGNERS?

Invisalign only works while you're wearing the aligners. It's recommended that you wear your aligners full-time, day and night, except to eat, brush, and floss your teeth.

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER TREATMENT TO PREVENT MY TEETH FROM MOVING AGAIN?

This varies person to person and depends on the outcome of the treatment. Some patients might need a positioner, or conventional retainer. Other patients might need a clear plastic retainer.

HOW MUCH DOES INVISALIGN COST?

There are many factors that determine the cost of your Invisalign treatment: how extensive the issues you want corrected, how long your treatment plan will last, and the specific treatment details prescribed by our doctors. We strive to make Invisalign affordable to everyone. You can get a beautiful, healthy and straight smile for as low as your monthly cell phone bill.
