Invisalign FAQs

Invisible aligners are clear, removable trays designed to straighten teeth without metal brackets or wires. They gently shift your teeth into proper alignment while offering a discreet and comfortable treatment experience.

Your dentist takes 3D digital scans of your teeth to create a customized treatment plan. You receive a series of aligners, each worn for 1–2 weeks to gradually move your teeth. Progress visits every 6–8 weeks ensure everything is moving as planned.

Typical treatment takes 6–18 months depending on your alignment needs, bite concerns, and how consistently you wear your aligners for 20–22 hours per day.
