Invisalign

Invisalign is a popular request from patients who are looking for a discreet orthodontic option.

Invisalign involves wearing a series of clear plastic aligners to gently move crooked or skewed teeth into place. They aim to straighten teeth without using conventional wires and brackets, and people often refer to them as ‘invisible braces’.

Each Invisalign aligner is individually manufactured to fit your teeth and works by putting pressure on your teeth to guide them into position. Invisalign is a good treatment option for patients wanting invisible braces because they are clear and designed to closely fit your teeth.

The potential for Invisalign to successfully treat an orthodontic issue depends on the nature of the case and patient compliance. To achieve the desired result, it is important to wear your aligners for at least 20 to 22 hours per day and only take them out when absolutely necessary.

Whether or not you’re a candidate for Invisalign depends on your unique circumstances, the complexity of your case and the outcome you are seeking to achieve. Invisalign is generally used to address very mild orthodontic concerns.

The good news is that even though Invisalign will not be suitable for everyone, we have other treatment options which are just as aesthetic and also invisible from the outside. Learn more >
