Whether you're a college student, a parent, a professional, or just someone ready for a change, Invisalign offers a clear, proven path toward the results you want.
What Is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a modern orthodontic system that uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners to gradually shift your teeth into better alignment. Each aligner is worn for about 1–2 weeks before switching to the next set in the series. The aligners are virtually invisible, easily removable, and more comfortable than traditional metal braces.
This treatment works for a wide range of orthodontic issues, including:
Because Invisalign aligners are removable, they make it easier to brush, floss, and eat what you want—without sacrificing progress.
Consultation and Digital Scans
We begin with a consultation to assess your bite, goals, and overall dental health. Using digital scans, we create a precise 3D map of your mouth to design your treatment plan.
Custom Aligner Fabrication
Your aligners are made from BPA-free SmartTrack® material and designed to fit snugly over your teeth. Each one applies gentle pressure to guide movement.
Daily Wear
Wear your aligners 20–22 hours per day, removing them only to eat, drink (anything other than water), brush, and floss. You’ll switch to a new set every 1–2 weeks.
Monitoring Progress
We schedule check-ins every 6–8 weeks to ensure everything is on track. These visits are fast, non-invasive, and often quicker than traditional braces appointments.
Retention
After treatment, you’ll wear retainers at night to maintain your new alignment long-term.
Because It’s Discreet
For adults and teens alike, Invisalign allows for real improvement without the visual distraction of metal. Whether you're in a classroom, boardroom, or on Zoom, your aligners stay in the background—while your confidence moves forward.
Because It’s Flexible
