About Invisalign Clear Aligners
Invisalign uses a series of custom made, clear plastic aligners to gradually shift your teeth into a straighter position, without the brackets and wires of traditional braces. Many patients ask whether clear aligners and Invisalign are the same thing, Invisalign is actually the leading brand of clear aligner, known for its precision fit and proven track record. At Royal Oak Smiles, we design a custom treatment plan mapping out your entire smile transformation before you start.
What is Condition
Invisalign treats many of the same alignment issues as traditional braces, including crowded teeth, gaps, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. It's often chosen by adults and teens who want to straighten their teeth without the visible metal look of traditional braces, without giving up the ability to eat, brush, and floss normally throughout treatment.
Symptoms and Causes
- Crowded or overlapping teeth
- Noticeable gaps between teeth
- Bite issues such as overbite, underbite, or crossbite
- Teeth that have shifted over time
- Wanting straighter teeth without visible braces
What to Expect
Treatment starts with a consultation and digital scan of your teeth, used to map your entire treatment plan from start to finish before you begin. You'll receive a series of custom aligners, worn 20 to 22 hours a day and swapped out roughly every one to two weeks as your teeth gradually shift. Regular check ins with your dentist track progress along the way. Most patients complete treatment in 12 to 18 months, though this varies based on the complexity of your case.
