Whether you’re a busy professional, a parent, or a teenager looking for a more aesthetic alternative to traditional braces, our office provides comprehensive Invisalign care in a comfortable, welcoming environment. We understand that choosing orthodontic treatment is a significant decision, and we’re here to guide you through every step of the process.

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is a revolutionary orthodontic treatment system that uses a series of custom-made, clear plastic aligners to gradually move your teeth into their ideal positions. Unlike traditional metal braces, these virtually invisible aligners are removable, making them an excellent choice for patients who want to straighten their teeth discreetly.

Each set of aligners is worn for approximately two weeks before progressing to the next set in the series. The aligners are designed using advanced 3D computer imaging technology that maps out your entire treatment plan from start to finish, allowing you to see your expected results before you even begin treatment.

The clear aligners are made from smooth, comfortable plastic that won’t irritate your gums or cheeks like traditional braces can. Because they’re removable, you can eat, drink, brush, and floss normally throughout your treatment, making it much easier to maintain good oral hygiene.

Is Invisalign Better Than Braces?

While both Invisalign and traditional braces can effectively straighten teeth, many patients find that Invisalign offers significant advantages for their lifestyle and preferences:

Aesthetic Appeal:

  • Virtually invisible appearance allows you to smile confidently during treatment
  • No metal brackets or wires to affect your professional or social interactions
  • Perfect for adults and teens who are self-conscious about their appearance

Comfort and Convenience:

  • Virtually invisible appearance allows you to smile confidently during treatment
  • No metal brackets or wires to affect your professional or social interactions
  • Perfect for adults and teens who are self-conscious about their appearance

Oral Hygiene:

  • Easy removal for thorough brushing and flossing
  • Reduced risk of plaque buildup and tooth decay during treatment
  • No special cleaning tools required

Treatment Predictability:

  • Advanced technology shows your expected results before treatment begins
  • Shorter office visits compared to traditional braces adjustments
  • More predictable treatment timeline in many cases

However, traditional braces may still be the best option for certain complex orthodontic cases. Dr. Messih will evaluate your specific situation and recommend the most appropriate treatment for your needs.

Alternatives to Invisalign

While Invisalign is an excellent choice for many patients, Dr. Messih also offers other orthodontic solutions depending on your specific needs and preferences:

Traditional Metal Braces:

  • Most effective for complex orthodontic cases
  • Often more cost-effective than clear aligner therapy
  • Proven track record for treating severe misalignment

Clear Ceramic Braces:

  • Less visible than metal braces while maintaining their effectiveness
  • Good compromise between aesthetics and treatment capability
  • Suitable for patients who aren’t candidates for Invisalign

Retainers for Minor Corrections:

  • Appropriate for very minor tooth movements
  • Often used after other orthodontic treatments
  • Less expensive option for limited corrections

During your consultation, our doctor will examine your teeth and discuss all available options to help you make the best decision for your orthodontic care.

What is the Process for Getting Invisalign?

Getting started with Invisalign at our office involves several straightforward steps designed to ensure the best possible results:

Initial Consultation:
  • Comprehensive examination of your teeth and bite
  • Discussion of your goals and treatment expectations
  • Evaluation to determine if you’re a good candidate for Invisalign
Digital Impressions and Treatment Planning:
  • Advanced 3D scanning creates precise digital models of your teeth
  • Custom treatment plan developed using specialized software
  • Preview of your expected results before treatment begins
Aligner Fabrication:
  • Your custom aligners are manufactured based on your treatment plan
  • Typically takes 2–3 weeks to receive your first set of aligners
  • Multiple sets created to cover your entire treatment period
Treatment Begins:
  • Dr. Messih provides detailed instructions for wearing and caring for your aligners
  • Progress check appointments are scheduled every 6–8 weeks
  • New aligners are provided as you progress through treatment
Monitoring and Adjustments:
  • Regular visits to monitor your progress and ensure proper tooth movement
  • Treatment modifications are made if necessary
  • Support and guidance throughout your orthodontic journey

How Long Do I Need to Wear Invisalign Retainers?

After completing your Invisalign treatment, wearing retainers is crucial for maintaining your beautiful new smile. The retention phase is just as important as the active treatment phase:
