Invisalign/ clear aligners

Invisalikgn or Clear aligners are a new system of straightening teeth without the use of conventional braces. A series of clear plastic aligners are utilized to create tooth movement. Moving teeth with removable aligners is not new. However, the computer program, which can generate a series of aligners with small changes is the new part.

Treatment time with Invisalign can vary, but generally speaking, treatment is completed faster with Invisalign vs. treatment with traditional braces. Please recognize, however, that the duration of your Invisalign treatment is ultimately dependent upon your specific treatment needs; moving more teeth with more complex movements will naturally take longer than moving fewer teeth with simple movements.

Invisalign is designed for correcting minor teeth rotations, shifts, spacing problems and crowding. And while there are many, many use cases for it, we can’t use Invisalign in cases where significant and complete movement of all the teeth is indicated. One of the best features of using Invisalign is that the aligners are clear, so that people won’t know that you are in orthodontic treatment, and when you smile for a picture, you won’t see metal braces.
