What Is Invisalign?

Invisalign is a popular orthodontic system that uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners to gradually shift your teeth into the desired position. These aligners are nearly invisible and can be removed for eating, brushing, and flossing.

Benefits of Invisalign

Discreet

Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, making them an excellent choice for those who want a more aesthetically pleasing orthodontic treatment.

Comfortable

The aligners are made from smooth, comfortable plastic and don't have the wires and brackets associated with traditional braces, reducing the risk of irritation.

Removable

Invisalign aligners can be removed when eating, drinking, or for special occasions, providing greater flexibility and ease in maintaining oral hygiene.

Effective

Invisalign can treat a wide range of orthodontic issues, from mild to moderate cases.
