Straight Talk about Invisalign®

Are you ready for your journey to a straighter, stronger, healthier smile? With Invisalign® clear aligners, we can straighten your bite in just 6-18 months without anyone knowing. You can stay active in sports, socialize and live your life free from the restrictions that metal braces impose.

Invisalign® for Your Health

Invisalign® isn’t just for your looks, it’s also for your health. Crooked teeth can cause many health problems, from periodontal disease to premature wear that leads to jaw pain, gum recession, loose teeth, fractures and even headaches. Invisalign® can straighten your smile and enhance your health.

Clear Braces

Instead of traditional metal wires and brackets, Invisalign® uses a progression of clear aligner trays to shift teeth into proper position. We use computer models to create customized aligner trays for a picture-perfect smile. Because the aligners are clear, no one even has to know that you are wearing them!
