The Process

It’s an easy process. Using an iTero scanner, a leading digital scanner from the makers of Invisalign clear aligners, your DOC dental team will create a 3-D image of your teeth in just minutes, show you a simulation of your new smile and then determine a treatment plan that’s right for you.

The Benefits

Research shows that 74% of Americans could benefit from straighter teeth. It’s not just for a pretty smile. It’s also essential for good oral health. That’s because crowded teeth are more difficult to clean causing build-up of plaque that causes gingivitis, and may lead to bone loss and periodontal disease.

Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT IS INVISALIGN® TREATMENT?

It is the process of wearing a series of clear, removable aligners that gradually straighten your teeth. There are no brackets, wires or restrictions that come with metal braces.

HOW MUCH DOES INVISALIGN COST?

You may be able to pay with tax-free dollars from your FSA or HSA or arrange a monthly payment plan using our recommended financing option of CareCredit.com.

WHAT ARE THE INVISALIGN® CLEAR ALIGNERS MADE OF?

Invisalign® clear aligners are made of a patented flexible plastic material called SmartTrack created exclusively for Invisalign treatment. Invisalign® clear aligners are FDA-approved and contain no BPA, BPS, latex, or gluten.

HOW LONG IS THE TREATMENT?

The length of treatment depends on multiple factors, like how complex your case is and how often you wear your aligners. Your doctor will determine exactly how long your treatment will take based on your specific needs. On average, our Invisalign® treatment time is no longer than eight months, though you can start seeing results in a matter of weeks.

ARE THERE RESTRICTIONS ON WHAT I CAN EAT WHILE IN TREATMENT?

Invisalign® clear aligners are removable, so there are no food restrictions. With traditional wires and brackets, there’s a long list of foods you unfortunately can’t enjoy because they can damage or get stuck in your braces.

HOW OFTEN DO I WEAR THE ALIGNERS?

Wear your Invisalign® aligners 20 to 22 hours a day to get the best results. Invisalign® clear aligners fit your life. You can remove your aligners for eating, drinking, brushing, flossing, special occasions, and for playing your favorite sport or instrument.

WHO CAN USE INVISALIGN® ?

Invisalign® treatment can be a great solution for both adults and teens looking for a virtually invisible method to improve their smile. Invisalign’s innovations and technological advancements make it possible to fix nearly all common teeth-straightening and bite issues, from simple to complex — all without interrupting your busy life.

WHAT IS THE PROCESS?

Invisalign® treatment starts with a free consultation with an Invisalign-trained doctor. Your doctor will evaluate your smile and then map out a precise, customized digital treatment plan that showcases the step-by-step transformation of your smile.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF INVISALIGN®?

Invisalign® is much more than a pretty smile. Crowded teeth are more difficult to clean causing build-up of plaque that causes gingivitis, and may lead to bone loss and periodontal disease. Invisalign® aligns teeth, improves periodontal hygiene, results in easier teeth cleanings and is non-invasive.
