Invisalign / Clear Aligners
You Deserve to Love Your Smile!
What are Clear Aligners?
Invisalign, or clear aligners are a great way to straighten your teeth without going through conventional metal braces with wires and brackets.
Clear aligners are a series of aligners that fit your teeth very tightly, with each subsequent aligner designed to be slightly straighter than the last. Slowly and safely, the aligners move your teeth into proper alignment.
Aligners are esthetic, comfortable, and easy to use. Since you can remove the aligners, you can eat, brush, and floss normally during the treatment. And since they are clear, most people won’t even be able to tell you are wearing them!

What is the Process of Getting Clear Aligners?
The process of getting clear aligners is very easy. At your first appointment we will take records, including either a digital scan or impression of your teeth, photos, and X-rays. These records are then sent to our lab, where we will instruct the lab technicians precisely how each of your aligners should be made according to your specific needs.
​
Once your clear aligners are shipped to us, we may place a few tooth-colored attachments or “buttons” to your teeth. These attachments act as special grips for your aligners to help move your teeth into their planned positions. We may also polish between some of your teeth, creating a tiny amount of space (just fractions of a millimeter), to also help with tooth movement.
​
We will then go over instructions for home care in detail and show you how to put your aligners in and take them out. During your clear aligner treatment, you will see your smile transforming, getting straighter and straighter each week!
