Frequently Asked Questions

How does Invisalign work?
The Invisalign clear braces system works by using a series of clear plastic aligners to gently coax your teeth into proper alignment.
Are the aligners painful to wear?
No. The Invisalign system is designed to be comfortable and non-irritating. You may experience slight discomfort as your teeth adjust to each new aligner, but this should never be painful.
How long will my Invisalign treatment take?
The length of time a given treatment takes depends on the individual treatment. In general, you will wear each aligner for about two weeks before moving on to the next in the series.
What are my alternatives to Invisalign clear braces?
Alternatives to the Invisalign system include braces and other appliances, as well as instant orthodontic procedures using porcelain veneers.
Is Invisalign right for me?
Invisalign is an excellent solution for many patients, particularly adult patients who want to straighten their teeth discreetly, without braces. However, it is not suitable for every person or for every orthodontic problem.
