Will Invisalign fit your life?

Keep doing what you do while your teeth straighten.

  • Take them out to eat and drink
  • Brush and floss as you normally would
  • No metal brackets or wires
  • Clear, so you can keep smiling
  • Remove them for a special night out
  • Quick progress checks every six weeks

Average treatment: 9 to 15 months. Your doctor sets your timeline based on your needs.

How Invisalign works

Little by little, into place.

Invisalign uses 3D imaging to map your treatment from where your teeth are now to where they’ll finish, then moves them there one set of aligners at a time.

  1. Complimentary consultation

    Meet with one of our doctors to find out whether Invisalign is right for you.

  2. Your 3D scan and virtual plan

    Your plan is built on a 3D computer model of your teeth, so you can see how your smile will look before treatment begins.

  3. A new set about every two weeks

    Your aligners are custom-made for your teeth only. Wear each set for about two weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush and floss. Each new set moves your teeth a little further.

  4. Progress checks every six weeks

    Most visits are quick, in-and-out checks to make sure everything is moving exactly as planned.

  5. Your finished smile

    Treatment time depends on your situation. The average is nine to fifteen months, usually with eighteen to thirty sets of aligners.

Invisalign vs. traditional braces

Straighter teeth, without the wires.

Both move teeth into place. The difference is how treatment fits into the rest of your life.

Kind words from our patients

  • I know most people hate the dentist but I love it! And it especially helps having such a great dental team that I know I can trust. I love leaving with my teeth feeling clean and well cared for. Dr. Bryan and his assistants (both Jess and Aliya) are so kind and caring.

  • My experience with Dr. Labin has been nothing but positive! I have been going to him for years and he is very gentle, making sure his patients are comfortable before he starts any procedure. The staff, from the office staff to the dental hygienists, are all professional and go above and beyond.
