Invisalign · Orange Ave NE

A clear way to straighten your smile

If you’d like a straighter smile but you don’t love the idea of traditional metal braces, you’re in luck. Invisalign uses clear aligners that fit over your teeth — almost no one will notice you’re wearing them.

How Invisalign works


Invisalign is a series of clear thermoplastic aligners customized to fit your teeth. They look a lot like whitening trays, and each aligner is designed to shift specific teeth over the course of your treatment. Once we decide together that Invisalign is the right fit, Dr. Chaudhry maps out your treatment plan and sends it to the Invisalign lab to begin designing your aligners.

Beyond being discreet, the aligners are removable. That means no strict diet — you can eat what you want; just take the aligners out before mealtime. The same goes for brushing and flossing: pop them out, clean as usual, put them back in. No special tools, no working around brackets and wires. Invisalign fits seamlessly into your daily life.

Are you a candidate?

Most adults and older teens are great candidates. If you have crooked teeth, gaps, crowding, an overbite, underbite, crossbite, or open bite, Invisalign may be right for you. On average, adult Invisalign treatment takes about a year. For teens, treatment time can be comparable to traditional braces.
