Invisalign®: How it Works |
One of the most exciting innovations at our practice is Invisalign, a special technology that allows us to give you a straighter, healthier smile using clear aligners instead of more invasive treatment with braces. One of the most common questions we get from patients is how Invisalign treatment works, and how it differs from traditional orthodontic treatment. How it works Invisalign works by gradually straightening your teeth through a series of clear custom-made plastic aligners that are virtually invisible. Before beginning your treatment, we use special software to map out the exact path your teeth will take from the beginning of your treatment to the end. Based on the results, a set of custom aligners are created just for your teeth using a state-of-the-art proprietary technology.
