Invisalign is an innovative teeth-straightening method that uses custom-made aligners to gently reposition your teeth. Adults and teens can enjoy the many benefits of Invisalign, including:

  • They are made of clear material and hardly noticeable. You’ll still be able to smile confidently, even while undergoing orthodontics!
  • The aligners are removable, so you can take them out while you eat and brush your teeth as you normally would.
  • Enjoy a more comfortable treatment process with smooth plastic trays instead of troublesome metal brackets and wires.
  • There are no adjustment appointments needed. Patients just have quick check-ins with the doctors every six weeks or so.
  • Tooth alignment treatments can transform an otherwise crooked grin into a gorgeous smile. Our tooth alignment options include veneers, Snap-on-Smile, and Invisalign.
  • Gaps between teeth are easily closed with Invisalign.

Compared to metal braces, Invisalign aligners are discreet and comfortable. The treatment
period is similar to braces but quicker in some cases. See what other cosmetic services we offer.

Invisalign FAQs

What do you want to know about Invisalign? Think you may want to try this clear orthodontic system for yourself or your teen? We’ve compiled some of the most common questions and concerns to help point you in the right direction.

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is one of the most popular brands of clear dental aligners. The process involves wearing removable, clear aligners that gradually guides the teeth into proper alignment over time. Your custom aligners are made of a flexible thermoplastic material called “SmartTrack,” and they are changed out every 2-3 weeks until your treatment is complete.

What are the biggest benefits of using Invisalign?

Invisalign offers several valued advantages over traditional braces, including:

  • Virtually invisible.
  • Fewer visits to your dentist.
  • Ability to eat normal and brush and floss your teeth as usual.
  • Avoid puffy gums and soft tissue irritation.
  • Often shorter treatment time.

What happens if you wear your aligners only at night?

If you invest in Invisalign, it is important to follow the instructions carefully so that you can achieve the results you desire. While the aligners can be removed, you should be diligent in keeping them in your mouth at least 20-22 hours each day. That leaves plenty of time to eat and brush (but not sleep) without your Invisalign.

How do I brush and care for my teeth?

Since Invisalign is removable, you can follow your recommended oral hygiene plan. For orthodontic patients, this is a big plus, as many braces wearers have to battle gingivitis and stained teeth due the difficulty of cleaning around wires, bands and brackets.

How do I care for the aligners?

According to Invisalign, “The best way to clean your aligners is to use the Invisalign Cleaning System… You can also brush them with a toothbrush and toothpaste and rinse them in lukewarm water. Never use hot water on your aligners — it could permanently warp the plastic.”

Is Invisalign expensive?

Invisalign treatment typically costs a similar amount to traditional braces. However, some insurance plans may help cover a portion. At Smile Design Studio, we also offer financing plans through CareCredit. Before you let cost standing the way of this innovative smile-straightening option, talk to our dental team!

Is Invisalign ideal for everyone?

No. Only a Certified Invisalign Provider can tell you if Invisalign is right for you. In general, Invisalign is known for addressing common orthodontic concerns, including gapped teeth, crooked teeth, over bites, underbites and crossbites. However, there may be unique cases in which traditional braces are best.
