Invisalign®
uses a series of nearly undetectable aligners instead
of brackets and wires. So even up close it's really
hard for people to tell you're wearing Invisalign.
This new treatment can give you the smile you've
always wanted without the braces you've always avoided.
No metal wires and brackets
Because there are no metal wires and brackets, Invisalign
is more comfortable than traditional braces. And
because they are removable, eating, brushing and
flossing are no problem.
You can still enjoy your favorite foods and smile
without holding back. With Invisalign, there's nothing
to hide.
Proven results
In both clinical research and in orthodontic practices
nationwide, Invisalign has been proven effective at straightening
teeth. Treatment takes about the length of time as traditional
braces and is far more comfortable. Thousands of patients
are taking advantage of this revolutionary treatment.
How long does Invisalign treatment take and how much
does it cost?
The duration and cost of treatment depends on the severity
of your particular case, which determines the number of
aligners you need. You'll wear each aligner for two weeks.
So, on the average it can take between 18-24 months.
Are there restrictions on what I can eat and drink?
Unlike traditional orthodontics, you can usually eat or
drink whatever you desire because you remove your aligners.
Thus, there is no need to change your normal eating habits
of any of your favorite foods or snacks, unless instructed
otherwise
Will wearing the Invisalign® aligners affect my speech?
Like all orthodontic treatments, aligners may temporarily
affect your speech, and you may have a slight lisp for
a day or two. However, as your tongue gets used to having
aligners in your mouth, any lisp or minor speech impediment
caused by the aligners should disappear
