What is Invisalign?
Your Invisalign treatment will consist of a series of “aligners” (trays) that you change about every two weeks. Each aligner is individually manufactured with exact calculations to gradually shift your teeth into place. And since your Invisalign system is custom-made for your teeth and your teeth only, with a plan devised by you and your dentist or orthodontist, you know you'll end up with a smile that truly fits.
If you're ready for a smile that transforms your appearance, Invisalign is your answer. Although there are many choices out there, no other works as effortlessly as the Invisalign system.
Invisalign is the best way to transform your smile without interfering with your day-to-day life. Although Invisalign works very well it should be stressed that, like any other treatment, it has its restraints and may not work for all types of mal-alignment of the teeth . Your dentist and you will determine if you are a candidate for this type of treatment.
Will it work for me?
Not only is Invisalign versatile, helping to correct a broad range of dental and orthodontic issues, but it really works. And there are over a million smiles to back that up. But a confident smile isn't the only benefit of correcting your dental issues with custom-made Invisalign aligners—your health can be positively impacted as well. Learn more about several common issues below that an experienced Invisalign doctor can work with you to correct.
Widely spaced teeth: This occurs when the size of the teeth do not match the size of the jaw, resulting in spaces between some teeth. When teeth are missing, this issue can also be caused by the other teeth shifting due to extra space. Spacing issues in teeth can cause some periodontal diseases.

Underbite: This occurs when the lower front teeth protrude past the upper front teeth. It's usually caused by undergrowth of the upper jaw, overgrowth of the lower jaw, or both. It can also be caused by missing upper teeth. This issue can prevent the normal function of front teeth or molars which can lead to tooth wear. It can also cause painful jaw and joint problems.
An Invisalign doctor will work with you to create a custom-designed program that will treat your specific dental or orthodontic issue(s). Your treatment program will consist of a full set of aligners, made for you, and only you. And of course, there are other considerations when making the decision to straighten your teeth. Think about how Invisalign can fit your life by providing a virtually-invisible option to getting the smile you want.
If you are not a perfect candidate for “Invisalign”, your dentist will make an appropriate referral to an orthodontist to investigate the possibility of regular “braces” to provide you with the best options available to you.
