Invisalign FAQ

                   

Invisalign makes it easier than ever to get the smile that you want without experiencing the discomfort of wearing metal braces. It is a revolutionary way to straighten your smile, and it gives you a reason to smile even during treatments! Please visit our main Invisalign Clear Braces page or browse through our most frequently asked questions about Invisalign below.

Q: What is Invisalign?

A: Invisalign is the invisible way to straighten your teeth without braces.

Q: How does Invisalign work?

A: It works by using a series of custom clear removable aligners to straighten your teeth without metal, wires, or brackets.

Q: Is Invisalign effective?

A: Yes! It has been proven effective in clinical research and in orthodontia practices nationwide. In fact, over 70% of all US orthodontists are certified to treat patients with Invisalign.

Q: How does Invisalign straighten my teeth?

A: You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move little by little, week by week until they have straightened to the final position your orthodontist has prescribed.

Q: How often do I need to visit my dentist during the Invisalign treatment?

A: You’ll visit your dentist about once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.

Q: How long with the total Invisalign treatment take?

A: Total treatment time averages 9-15 months and the average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but both will vary from case to case.
