Do you have crooked or crowded upper or lower teeth? Is it getting harder and harder to keep your teeth clean, and getting more difficult to floss? Are you one of countless adults today who had traditional metal bands and bracket orthodontic therapy as an adolescent, and did not continue to wear your retainers? You may want to consider Invisalign—the clear way to straighten teeth.

After consultation and orthodontic workup are completed precise diagnostic impressions of the patient’s teeth are taken. From these extremely accurate impressions, our Invisalign partners in California create a series of custom-made, removable, nearly invisible Aligners to gently move your teeth. Patients wear each aligner for approximately 22 hours each day for two week intervals.

The total number of aligners depends upon the severity of the case, with the average time of total treatment of approximately one year. The beauty of the Invisalign System of orthodontic tooth movement is many-fold. The aligners are removable—the patient can brush and floss normally, which helps prevent tooth decay and gum disease. Traditional orthodontic appliances, like braces, can cause gingivitis (usually reversible once the braces are removed). Because the aligners are removable, the patient can still eat whatever he/she wants. Straighter teeth can lead to healthier gums, as properly positioned teeth are easier to brush and floss than teeth that are crowded, crooked, or spaced too far apart. With the maintenance of good oral hygiene, straighter teeth can reduce plaque retention, tooth decay, and periodontal (gum) disease.
