About Services
Invisalign is a revolutionary orthodontic treatment that uses a series of custom-made, nearly invisible clear aligners to gradually straighten your teeth. Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign involves no brackets or wires, making it a popular choice for adults and teens who want to improve their smile discreetly. At Bright Smile Dental Clinic, we use advanced 3D imaging technology to map out your entire treatment plan from start to finish, allowing you to see your projected results before you even begin.
Benefits
The aligners are made of clear, medical-grade plastic, so most people won't even notice you're wearing them.
You can take your aligners out to eat, drink, brush, and floss. This means no food restrictions and much easier oral hygiene.
Smooth plastic edges mean no painful wires or sharp metal brackets that can irritate your cheeks and gums.
With our digital planning software, we can track your progress with high precision, often resulting in shorter treatment times compared to traditional braces.
Process
We use a high-tech iTero scanner to create a 3D digital model of your teeth—no messy, uncomfortable putty impressions required.
Our dentists design a step-by-step plan that shows exactly how your teeth will move. Each set of aligners is then custom-manufactured for your smile.
You will wear each set of aligners for about 1 to 2 weeks, for at least 22 hours a day, as they gently and consistently shift your teeth into place.
Every 6 to 8 weeks, you’ll visit Bright Smile Dental Clinic so we can monitor your movement and provide you with your next sets of aligners.
Ideal Candidates
Professionals who want to straighten their teeth without the "metal mouth" look of traditional braces.
Invisalign is highly effective at closing unwanted spaces and fixing teeth that are overlapping or crowded.
It can successfully treat overbites, underbites, crossbites, and open bites, improving both aesthetics and jaw function.
For teenagers who are active in sports or music, the removable nature of Invisalign provides a more flexible lifestyle than fixed braces.
