Why Choose Invisalign®?
Invisalign® is a cutting-edge orthodontic treatment that provides a discreet and comfortable alternative to conventional “bracket and wire” orthodontics.
Some advantages of choosing Invisalign® are:
- Unlike conventional braces, aligners are nearly invisible when worn.
- Aligners are easy to use and require little maintenance. Conventional braces often have brackets and wires that come loose during treatment, necessitating additional dental visits to correct these unexpected problems.
- Unlike conventional braces, aligners allow for normal brushing and flossing of the teeth since they can be easily removed regularly for this purpose.
How Invisalign® Works
The Invisalign® treatment process begins with a comprehensive consultation, during which our experienced dental team assesses your dental structure and creates a personalized treatment plan. Utilizing advanced 3D imaging technology, we design a series of custom aligners that gradually shift your teeth into the desired position. You will receive a new set of aligners approximately every two weeks, each one designed to continue the alignment process until your ideal smile is achieved.

Cleaning Your Invisalign® Aligners
Maintaining proper oral hygiene and cleaning your Invisalign® aligners is crucial for the success of your treatment. To keep your aligners clean and clear, follow these simple steps:
- Gently brush your aligners with a soft-bristled toothbrush and rinse them with lukewarm water to prevent the buildup of bacteria.
- Avoid using hot water when cleaning your aligners, as it can distort their shape.
- Soak your aligners regularly in a denture cleaner or the recommended Invisalign® cleaning crystals to ensure thorough disinfection.
