What’s Invisalign?

Invisalign® is an alternative to traditional braces that moves your teeth using clear plastic aligners instead of metal brackets and wires. The plastic aligners are like sturdier versions of teeth whitening trays that you just slip over your teeth. We design the aligners in a precise sequence by a computer to move your teeth through a series of steps to achieve the beautiful straight smile you desire.
Invisalign can work much faster than traditional braces and the best part—the treatment is nearly invisible.
