Invisalign is state-of-the-art technology used to move your teeth into alignment with clear aligners instead of traditional metal braces. It consists of a series of aligners with tooth-colored attachments that are used to move the teeth into the correct positions. Aligners are meant to be worn for 22 hours per day and changed weekly to achieve optimal movement.
Invisalign can correct the following issues depending on case complexity.
- crowding
- spacing or gaps
- crossbite
- crooked teeth
- open bite
Length of treatment is determined after a digital scan or impression is taken of your teeth and sent to the Invisalign technicians to create a treatment plan. Treatment length is based on mild to moderate malocclusion, times vary depending on aligner wear time, and case complexity.
Please note that not all people are candidates for Invisalign. Feel free to take the smile assessment quiz or give our office a call for a consultation!
