How Does Invisalign Work?
Invisalign treatment consists of a series of clear aligners, much like a retainer, that are custom-made to put pressure on the teeth to shift them into their appropriate position within the jaw.
The aligners are designed to be removable, which makes it easier to practice proper oral hygiene and removes the food restrictions that come with traditional braces. The aligners should be worn for 20 to 22 hours a day to ensure you achieve the best smile result.
On average, treatment takes 12 to 18 months. However, depending upon the level or intensity of teeth movement required, you may see results in as little as 6 months – but if your straightening treatment is a bit more complex, you may need up to 24 months for full results.
What Are Clear Aligners?
Experience a modern, comfortable approach to teeth straightening.
Clear aligners are a nearly invisible, modern solution for straightening teeth. Made from smooth, transparent plastic and custom-fitted, they gradually shift teeth into place. Unlike braces, clear aligners are removable, letting you eat, brush, and floss freely. Every few weeks, you switch to a new set of aligners, keeping progress on track toward a confident, straight smile.
How do clear aligners differ from traditional teeth straightening methods?
- Discreet Appearance : Nearly invisible, allowing you to straighten teeth without noticeable hardware.
- Removable Convenience : Easy to take out for meals, brushing, and flossing.
- Custom Fit : Designed specifically for your teeth for a comfortable, precise fit.
- Fewer Dental Visits : Less frequent adjustments than with traditional braces.

What Can Invisalign® Fix?
If you have lost most or all of your teeth, full-arch dental implants can be a great solution. There are different types of implants, each with its own benefits. Some are removable, while others are fixed for a more natural feel.
Crowded Teeth
Crowded teeth is a condition where you do not have enough room for your teeth to fit normally. This can cause plaque or tartar and other harmful bacteria to build up as it is harder for you to brush and floss well.
Gaps Between Teeth
Gaps between teeth is when there is extra space between two or more of your teeth. This can cause pockets between your teeth and gums and can cause food to get stuck making them tender and sore. This might also lead to gum disease.
Open Bite
An Open bite is when your upper and lower teeth don’t touch when you close your mouth. An open bite can make it hard for you to chew or difficult to bite even the most common of food like apples.
Underbite
An underbite is when you close your mouth and your lower front teeth are in front of your upper teeth. In many cases, this is actually a problem with your lower jaw being too far forward. An underbite can make it hard to chew properly and speak clearly, and it might cause your teeth to wear down more quickly.
Overbite
An overbite is when your upper front teeth overlap with your lower front teeth. Most people have at least a little overbite. When your overbite is too large, your doctor might tell you you have a deep bite. This can cause problems, from your teeth wearing down to pain in your jaw.
Crossbite
A crossbite is when you close your mouth and some of your upper teeth are sitting inside your lower teeth rather than on the outside. A crossbite can make your teeth wear down or chip. It can also make your gums start to recede or make little notches above your gum line. This kind of damage can lead to painful gum problems or even bone loss.
