What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a modern, clear aligner system designed to straighten teeth without metal brackets. These smooth, custom trays fit over your teeth and shift them gradually over time. You wear each set for about two weeks before switching to the next in the series.
What are the benefits of Invisalign?
Invisalign is noninvasive, nearly invisible, and comfortable — with no metal to irritate your mouth. Suitable for adults and teens, it’s effective for mild to severe misalignment. The trays are removable and must be worn at least 20 hours a day for best results.
