The Invisalign Orthodontic System, is often times referred to as "clear braces".  The system is highly effective at realigning natural teeth and improving smiles in a number of different cosmetic alignment and crowding applications.  The older and more familiar method of metal braces or white ceramic braces  is becoming a the less utilized choice by patients, due to the introduction of this newer clear alignment system.  Although not all patients may be able to use this "unique leading technology" orthodontic alignment system,  the patient is able to visually assess treatment concerns prior to aligning their smile.

The Invisalign orthodontic alignment system offers many significant advantages for the adult and younger adult patients.  Invisalign offers orthodontic smile enhancement with predictable results, producing beautiful natural smiles.  Probably one of the greatest, most beneficial applications today, is for the patient that has already had braces placed in the past and is now noticing some minor or even moderate crowding or alignment issues (often referred to as relapse by dental professionals).

Working adults find this clear aligner method of realignment and cosmetic correction to be fast, efficient and a very comfortable way of reestablishing that beautiful, natural smile. A smile they once enjoyed and after wearing braces for years to accomplish, during their earlier years of orthodontic treatment. Invisalign offers a uncompromising advantage for the working adult not willing to accept placement of braces again to accomplish the realignment.

The Invisalign program, is an excellent system for orthodontic corrective cosmetic treatment.  Invisalign treatment requires very few appointments for patients to get started.  Most cases, can be completed in a very short 6 to 9 active month treatment time, with
very few office visits. This a big time savings to the busy patient. The Invisalign system of clear aligners are becoming more popular with young adults as well, for the understandable reasons of not having to wear metal braces.  More and more young people are finding the Invisalign program an appealing alternative, with faster treatment times and a more efficient treatment process.

The Invisalign system offers a popular state of the art, computer simulation program for allowing our patients to view their smile and assess before and after treatment.
This is accomplished through a unique CAT scan technology of the patients initial dental molds prior to beginning and treatment.  The computer program allows patients to view their actual teeth, after being uploaded onto the companies proprietary software.  allowing the patient to analysis their dentition right along with the dental profession.  This effectively allows the patients dentition to be analyzed in many different different 3 dimensional views.  Smiles can be evaluated in the many different views, dental concerns can be visually expressed and addressed, and the final orthodontic result may be assessed prior to the utilizing the Invisalign clear orthodontic aligners, as the treatment of choice, to enhance the patients smile.
