Invisalign is the virtually invisible way to straighten your teeth without braces, using a series of clear, removable aligners to straighten your teeth without metal wires or brackets. You wear each set of clear aligners for about two 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 or dentist has prescribed. You'll visit your orthodontist or dentist about once every six weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.
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.

-
Invisalign works by using a series of clear, custom-made aligners that gradually move your teeth into their proper positions. Each set of aligners is worn for about one to two weeks and applies gentle, controlled pressure to shift the teeth over time. The aligners are removable, making it easy to eat, brush, and floss normally. As you progress through the series, your teeth move closer to the planned final alignment. Regular check-ins ensure the treatment stays on track and delivers the desired results.
-
Aligners are clear and nearly invisible. If you've ever seen clear tooth-whitening trays, that should give you a good idea of what the aligners look like. Invisalign aligners are custom-made to fit and move your teeth.
-
Each time you change to a new aligner, there may be some temporary discomfort while your teeth adjust to their new position. This is completely normal, and is a good sign that the treatment is working.
-
Some people are affected more than others, but most adjust in a short period of time to the feeling of the aligners and do not have permanent changes in their speech.
-
The cost of Invisalign treatment can vary depending on several factors, including the complexity of the case, treatment length, and insurance coverage if using.
