Do you want to straighten your smile while protecting your self-image? Invisalign may be right for you. The clear removable aligner system of Invisalign is the preferred orthodontic solution for a growing number of patients who desire a more attractive, straighter smile. Invisalign is excellent for image-conscious teens, models and actors, as well as adults who have careers that require frequent public appearances.

How Does It Work?

Invisalign uses advanced digital technology to create the ideal smile. The system uses computerized images of your teeth to make a series of clear plastic aligners.

These smooth customized aligners are replaced approximately every two weeks to gently move your teeth to proper position. You can expect total treatment time to be around 9-15 months, depending on your specific smile concerns. The average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30. Invisalign helps patients by improving their facial appearance, oral health and self-confidence in the most discreet way.

Can Invisalign Help Me?

Research indicates that almost 50% of Americans are unhappy with their teeth. If you are hiding your smile due to the following aesthetic dental concerns, Invisalign may be the right solution for you:

• Gaps in teeth
• Crowded teeth
• Crooked teeth
• Overbite
• Protruding teeth

What Are the Benefits?

Patients love the significant advantages that Invisalign offers in contrast to traditional metal braces.

• Discreet – clear aligners virtually invisible to others
• Less Treatment Time – Invisalign treatment requires fewer dental visits
• Convenient – The braces are removable which makes it easier to eat (without dietary restrictions) and maintain good dental hygiene
• Comfortable – The flexible, soft and smooth plastic custom fit to your smile and much more comfortable than sharp metal brackets and bands

If you have put off straightening your smile because you don’t want to endure time in metal braces, ask your dental provider about Invisalign. Soft Touch Dentistry offers a variety of clear braces options, ensuring each patient receives a treatment that fits both your needs and lifestyle preferences.
