Invisalign® is an almost invisible way to straighten your teeth, using a series of clear, removable custom-made aligners. No longer do you have to wear conventional metal braces! There are no food restrictions or problems with flossing or brushing as you can remove the aligners before eating, drinking and starting your oral hygiene regimen.
Invisalign® is also more comfortable than conventional braces as there are no metal or wires to cause mouth abrasions. And because this technology requires less time for adjustment appointments, it is also more convenient.
Once Dr. Saleh develops a custom prescription for your mouth, Invisalign uses 3-D computer imaging technology to design the complete treatment plan, from the initial teeth positioning to the desired final positioning. This 3-D imaging allows you to preview the final positioning of your teeth before you even start treatment.
Custom-made aligners are created based on the imaging information. Each of these aligners is worn for about two weeks, moving teeth gradually. Typically, you will visit us once every six weeks for progress reports. Please keep in mind that not all patients are good candidates for Invisalign. Call or email us to schedule a free evaluation to see if Invisalign® is right for you.
