What Is Invisalign and How Does It Work?
Invisalign is a highly effective aligner system that offers a virtually invisible alternative to metal braces. The cutting-edge orthodontic solution consists of a series of custom-made, clear aligners that apply pressure to your teeth, gently moving them into place.
Invisalign treats a wide range of orthodontic concerns, including uneven, spaced, or overcrowded teeth. It also corrects mild to moderate problems with the bite, including overbites, underbites, crossbites, and open bites. Invisalign is a very popular option for adults who had orthodontic treatment in the past and now notice shifting or crowding of their teeth. Invisalign could be the perfect solution for you!

What Is the Invisalign Procedure?
During your initial appointment, Dr. Luse evaluates the needs of your unique smile and discusses your treatment goals. Once you choose Invisalign for your smile, we review the process and the estimated length of treatment.
Next, we take digital scans of your teeth to create precise digital models. We use these models to map out your personalized treatment plan. Patients love seeing their smiles transform on screen! Once Dr. Luse skillfully plans your treatment, Invisalign creates your custom aligner trays.
When your Invisalign aligners are ready, we verify the fit and demonstrate how to wear them, clean them, and care for them. You must wear your aligners for 22 hours a day to keep your treatment on track! As you switch each set of aligners for the next in the series, you will see your teeth gradually moving into alignment. Periodically, we will see you in the office to monitor your progress and ensure your treatment is on track.
Once your treatment goals are achieved and you are enjoying your straight smile, we recommend protecting your investment with Vivera retainers. Without proper retention, your teeth will continue to shift and can easily become crowded again. Show off your new smile with confidence, knowing you are securing it with the highest-quality retainers available.
