How Invisalign Works

Instead of using metal brackets and wires, Invisalign uses a custom series of clear aligners. Each set is worn for 20-22 hours a day and for 1-2 weeks at a time. As you progress to each new pair, you’ll notice the alignment of your teeth and bite improve. Not only that, but most patients achieve the desired results in just 12-18 months!

Who Invisalign Can Help

Invisalign in Loves Park is quite versatile. In fact, it can help patients who are struggling with mild to moderate cases of common orthodontic problems, including:

Crowded Teeth

Do your teeth overlap? If so, you know firsthand how difficult it can be to smile confidently and brush properly. The good news is that Invisalign is usually an option! So, if you want a straighter and more confident smile, you shouldn’t hesitate to schedule a consultation at our office.

Gaps Between Teeth

Of course, some patients are struggling with similar issues from the opposite problem: too much space between their teeth. Fortunately, clear aligners have proven to be an effective solution. If we determine you’re a good candidate, then we can close the gaps without drawing unwanted attention to your smile.

Bite Alignment

In addition to being able to correct overcrowding and spacing issues, Invisalign can fix mild cases of overbites, underbites, crossbites, and open bites! So, if you are struggling with any of these bite problems, don’t just assume that traditional braces are your only option.

The Benefits of Invisalign

  • A discreet appearance and improved comfort
  • No dietary restrictions
  • Hassle-free dental care
  • No monthly adjustment appointments
  • Shorter average treatment timeline

How Much Does Invisalign Cost?

There actually isn’t a flat fee for Invisalign. Instead, the price is determined by factors like whether single-arch treatment is possible, how many aligners are needed, and the type of retainer that’s needed. Once we have all of this information, we can provide you with an estimate of the price. We can also share the different financial solutions that are available at our office, including dental insurance and flexible financing.
