About Invisalign
Convenient Treatment That Fits Your Life
If you've ever wanted a straighter smile without obvious metal braces, Invisalign clear aligners could be the perfect fit for you.
Dr. Diana and Dr. Neil are certified experts in using Invisalign to provide effective and efficient treatment to create your perfect smile!
Why Patients Love Invisalign
nvisalign uses a series of clear, custom aligners to gently move your teeth over time. Your aligners are removable, easy to clean, and nearly invisible when worn.
With Invisalign, you can:
- Eat your favorite foods
- Brush and floss with ease
- Smile confidently during treatment
- Keep up with school, work, sports, and social events
- Visit our office for simple progress checks
During your free consultation, we'll examine your smile, take digital images, and let you know if Invisalign is a good fit for your needs.
Invisalign vs. Braces
Both braces and Invisalign can create beautiful, healthy smiles. The right choice depends on your smile, lifestyle, and treatment needs.
Invisalign may be a great option if you want a treatment that is:
- Clear and discreet
- Removable for meals
- Easy to clean around
- Comfortable against your cheeks and lips
- Flexible for busy schedules
Braces may still be the better choice for certain complex bite or alignment concerns. At your consultation, we’ll walk you through your options and help you choose the treatment that makes the most sense for you.
Your Invisalign Responsibility
Because Invisalign aligners are removable, your commitment matters. For the best results, you’ll need to wear your aligners as directed and take them out only for eating, drinking anything besides water, brushing, and flossing.
You’ll also need to clean your teeth before putting your aligners back in. This helps keep your teeth healthy and your aligners clear.
How Does Invisalign Work?
On your first visit, we'll use our intraoral camera and 3D technology to create a digital impression of your teeth.
Once we have an accurate representation of your mouth, Dr. Diana or Dr. Neil can create a customized treatment plan to fabricate your custom aligners.
Each tray is designed to apply gentle pressure on your teeth, slowly moving them to the proper position.
Throughout your treatment, Dr. Diana or Dr. Neil closely monitor your teeth's movement and make adjustments as needed to achieve a successful outcome.
Invisalign for Kids
Some children can benefit from early orthodontic care, especially when their teeth or jaws need help developing in a healthier direction. Invisalign First is designed for younger patients who may need early treatment while their smiles are still growing.
Invisalign First aligners are clear, removable, and made to fit growing teeth and jaws. They can help guide developing smiles while making it easier for kids to brush, floss, and eat comfortably.
Signs Your Child May Need Orthodontic Care
Your child may benefit from an orthodontic evaluation if you notice:
- Difficulty biting or chewing
- Mouth breathing
- Thumb-sucking after age 5
- Crowded or misplaced teeth
- Speech concerns
- Protruding teeth
- Grinding or clenching
The best way to know whether Invisalign First is right for your child is to schedule a consultation. We’ll evaluate their teeth, jaws, and growth, then recommend the best next step.
Invisalign for Teens
A Smile Solution That Fits Teen Life
Invisalign for Teens gives growing smiles a clear, comfortable option for orthodontic treatment. Instead of brackets and wires, teens wear removable aligners that fit into their daily routine.
That means they can keep enjoying school, sports, music, photos, and social events with less worry about how their treatment looks or feels.
Why Teens Like Invisalign
Invisalign can be a great fit for responsible teens because it offers:
- A nearly invisible look
- No food restrictions during meals
- Easy brushing and flossing
- Comfortable aligners with no brackets or wires
- Flexibility for sports, instruments, and activities
- No issues with broken brackets or poking wires
Invisalign for Teens also includes wear indicators that help us monitor whether aligners are being worn as directed. This gives parents and doctors an extra way to support treatment progress.
Is Invisalign Right for Your Teen?
Invisalign can treat many common orthodontic concerns, including crowding, spacing, and bite issues. During your teen’s consultation, Dr. Diana or Dr. Neil will evaluate their smile, talk through their habits and goals, and help your family decide whether Invisalign is the right fit.
Invisalign for Adults
It’s never too late to improve your smile. Invisalign is a popular option for adults because it is clear, removable, and easy to fit into a busy schedule.
Whether you’re at work, out with friends, or caring for your family, Invisalign lets you straighten your teeth with less disruption to your day-to-day life.
Benefits of Invisalign for Adults
