Invisalign™

Upon informing our patients about the possibility of Invisalign treatment, many are astonished to discover that braces aren't necessary for teeth straightening.

Invisalign™ is capable of addressing numerous orthodontic concerns, such as overcrowding, gaps, deep bites, open bites, crossbites, Class II and Class III malocclusions, and even instances necessitating extractions or surgery. Invisalign trays are removable, which enables patients to brush and floss without the hindrances of wires and brackets, as well as enjoy foods that might be restricted with traditional braces. Moreover, Invisalign helps avoid the discomforts caused by braces, which can include protruding wires, mouth sores, and other injuries from damaged appliances.

Naturally, the primary reason our patients appreciate Invisalign is because they are clear, and if a special event calls for the removal of the trays, they can simply be removed, and replaced in the mouth afterwards.

Invisalign™

Invisalign employs a sequence of transparent, medical-grade plastic aligners, individually tailored to gently and inconspicuously shift your teeth based on a personalized treatment strategy devised by your Orthodontist. These trays are clear and can be taken out whenever necessary, allowing for effortless cleaning and upkeep, as well as the ability to enjoy any food.


Invisalign trays should be worn for 22 hours daily to achieve the desired outcome. Each subsequent tray has slight variations, causing your teeth to gradually adjust to their intended placement over time.


Optimal for cosmetic reasons, such as misaligned teeth, Invisalign is a good solution for busy professionals or those seeking a discreet transformation in their appearance.

Treatment comparison

Braces

Braces can be used to treat tooth gaps, overcrowding, misalignment, overbites, and underbites, for even the most complicated cases. At docbraces, we provide clear ceramic braces, as well as self-ligating braces that eliminate the need for elastic or metal ties.

Clear braces are an excellent choice for those who prefer a discreet orthodontic treatment. Depending on the extent of the treatment required, these clear braces may only be applied to the upper front teeth, which are the most visible when smiling.

Invisalign™ FAQs

Who is a candidate for braces or Invisalign™ ?

There are many ways in which having Invisalign can have a positive impact on your overall health and well-being. First, braces or Invisalign can make a huge difference for your self-confidence as they can alleviate any concerns that you have about your teeth and smile. Second, braces can reduce the likelihood of several diseases, such as tooth decay or gum disease, and can even prevent the development of heart disease. Finally, treating any issues you have with your bite or the alignment of your teeth can greatly reduce the likelihood of you needing more expensive or complex treatments like jaw surgery or a tooth extraction.

How does Invisalign™ work?

Invisalign is a unique orthodontic system that straightens your teeth with clear plastic aligner trays, in place of wires and brackets. These aligners are custom-made for your smile, based on a treatment plan created specifically for you by your Orthodontist. Over the course of your treatment, you will be provided with a number of trays, each tray making small changes to your tooth and jaw alignment. The aligner trays are designed in such a way that each will move your teeth into the desired position, as identified by your Orthodontist. Because the trays are clear, they provide patients with a discreet approach to orthodontic treatment.

How long will treatment take?

Your treatment is as unique as you are, so there is no “one size fits all” length of time that you’ll wear your braces or undergo other forms of treatment. However, average treatment times typically range between six and 24 months and each case varies in complexity. Patients who practice good oral hygiene can expect to have a positive impact on their treatment. Keeping up good habits like regularly flossing and brushing your teeth can help your treatment go faster, as can complying with treatment recommendations, like wearing your elastics.

Would an adult patient benefit from orthodontics?

Orthodontic treatment can be successful at any age. Everyone wants a beautiful and healthy smile. Twenty to twenty-five percent of orthodontic patients today are adults.

Does Invisalign really work?

Yes, Invisalign works. Each new set of aligners progressively moves the teeth in the proper direction prescribed by your Orthodontist and your customized treatment plan. The only difference is, the flexibility of the aligners provide the gentle force to move the teeth, as compared to the wires in traditional braces.
