Invisalign®

How Does Invisalign Work?

Invisalign's clear aligners move the teeth gradually until they've reached their ideal position. As you go through your treatment, you'll change aligners about every two weeks. Every patient has different needs, but in most cases, treatment typically takes between 9 and 15 months to complete and uses around 18 to 30 different aligners. Thanks to Invisalign’s subtle appearance, patients can feel more confident on a day-to-day basis knowing that their aligners won't draw attention to their treatment.

Better Oral Health and an Unrestricted Diet

One of the biggest benefits of Invisalign is that your personalized aligners are removable, giving you greater freedom when eating and cleaning your teeth. You’ll also have the flexibility to remove your aligners for pictures or special occasions. Imagine going out with your friends or a loved one without having to hide your smile or avoid your favorite foods. With Invisalign, that's what patients of Dr. Jeff and Dr. Jen can look forward to.

A More Comfortable Solution

One of the most common complaints about traditional metal braces is that the brackets and wires cause irritation to the gums and lips. With Invisalign’s smooth plastic and custom design, the aligners will fit comfortably over your teeth, and after a few days of use, you’ll barely notice you’re wearing them.

Save Time

With Invisalign, you won’t have to come in for regular appointments to have it adjusted like with metal braces. You’ll simply change your aligners every two weeks as instructed, and you’ll only return to Shirck Orthodontics every 10-12 weeks for a quick progress check. No tightening, no adjustments, and no days filled with soreness. We’ll simply make sure your smile is on track and send you on your way!

Still Unsure About Invisalign?

For patients who are still nervous about seeking care with Invisalign, it can help to know that Dr. Jeff and Dr. Jen will use an iTero Digital Scanner to create your treatment plan rather than a traditional dental impression. It will generate a 3D computer image of your teeth that will allow for greater precision, a custom fit, and it even makes it possible for you to see what your results will look like before you ever wear your first aligner.
