Invisalign®
Invisalign® clear aligners are virtually invisible, comfortable and removable, making them an excellent choice for those looking to straighten their teeth discreetly.
Our experienced dentists will create a tailored treatment plan using advanced 3D imaging technology to ensure your aligners fit perfectly and move your teeth gradually into the desired position. With Invisalign®, you can achieve a beautifully straight smile with minimal disruption to your daily life in as little as 4 months.
During your first consultation, we will take a scan with our iTero element scanner, which enables us to take a 3D scan of your teeth with no impressions required! We will then be able to show you during the appointment what your Invisalign® smile transformation might look like ahead of treatment.

With Invisalign, you can achieve a beautifully straight smile with minimal disruption to your daily life.
Invisalign® FAQ’s
-
Invisalign® uses a series of custom-made, clear aligners that fit snugly over your teeth. These aligners gradually shift your teeth into their correct positions. You’ll wear each set of aligners for about two weeks before switching to the next set in the series until your treatment is complete.
-
The length of Invisalign® treatment varies depending on the complexity of your case. On average, treatment can take anywhere from 6 to 18 months. During your consultation, our dentist will provide a more accurate timeline based on your specific needs.
-
Invisalign® is generally less painful than traditional braces. You may experience some discomfort or pressure when you start wearing a new set of aligners, but this typically subsides after a few days as your teeth adjust.
-
You should remove your Invisalign® aligners when eating or drinking anything other than water. This prevents food and drink from getting trapped between your teeth and the aligners, which can cause staining and tooth decay. Remember to brush your teeth before putting the aligners back in.
-
Regular check-ups are essential to monitor your progress and ensure your treatment is on track. Typically, you’ll need to visit our practice every 6 to 8 weeks. During these visits, our dentist will provide you with your next sets of aligners and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
