Invisalign

Invisalign® straightens your teeth using a custom-made series of aligners created for you and only you. These aligner trays are made of smooth, comfortable and virtually invisible plastic that you wear over your teeth. They gradually and gently shift your teeth into place. There are no metal brackets to attach and no wires to tighten. You just pop in a new set of aligners approximately every two weeks, until your treatment is complete. You’ll achieve a great smile with little interference to your daily life.

Frequently Asked Questions about Invisalign

What do I need to get started?

Our initial exam is offered at no charge and is necessary to determine your treatment plan.  Complimentary x-rays and photos are taken so that, if possible, a complete diagnosis can be given that day.

When do I get my aligners?

After the initial exam, your file is sent to Invisalign to determine your treatment plan.  Once the treatment plan is finalized, the aligners are fabricated and shipped.  The normal time is 5-7 weeks.
