What is Invisalign®? Here’s Everything You Need to Know
The Best Clear Dental Aligners
Invisalign® is an orthodontic treatment that straightens teeth with invisible aligners. Known as the world’s most advanced clear aligner system, Invisalign® is the top solution for people who want to straighten misaligned teeth without having to wear metal braces. As its name suggests, Invisalign® braces are nearly invisible, convenient to remove, and easy to clean. Invisalign®’s invisible aligners and cutting-edge technology offer advanced effective solutions for fixing conditions such as:
Uneven spacing
Traditional Metal Braces vs Invisalign®
Invisalign® is considered to be an advanced alternative to traditional metal braces, which can be uncomfortable and restrictive. With clear aligners, there are no rubber bands, wires, or brackets involved. Since there are no wires or brackets obscuring the teeth, you will be able to see your results a lot sooner. You can also opt-in for weekly aligner changes, which increases Invisalign® treatments up to 50% faster. Additionally, Invisalign® treatments do not come with any dietary restrictions. While it is normal for Invisalign® patients to experience mild discomfort or pain during their first few days of treatment, Invisalign® pain is shorter and significantly less severe than the type of pain associated with traditional braces.
Why Choose Invisalign® Aligners
Invisalign® Aligners Are One of Your Best Options
Invisalign® is highly recommended by top dentists and orthodontists around the world. Clinically proven to be effective, the Invisalign® experience offers faster results and minimal to no discomfort.

What Happens During My Invisalign® Consultation?
Because each patient has a unique case, it is best to schedule an initial consultation with a professional known as an Invisalign® Preferred Provider.

During your initial consultation, she will be able to confirm whether you’re a good candidate for Invisalign®. She will discuss your case in detail, educate you about the Invisalign® treatment, and recommend alternative solutions if necessary.
How Invisalign® Braces Work
The Invisalign® Process from Metro Smiles
How Long Does Invisalign® Need to be Worn
You will need to wear your clear aligners almost all the time. You can easily remove them to eat, drink, floss, or brush your teeth, but you should ideally wear them for at least 22 hours every day.
Improve Your Oral Hygiene
Brushing and flossing become even more important. On a side note, most people report their hygiene habits improving during their Invisalign® treatments.
Invisalign® Eating Schedule
Your eating schedule will change. Because you will need to clean your teeth after eating or drinking anything other than water, you may find yourself snacking a lot less. Some patients have noticed themselves losing weight during treatment, a phenomenon also known as the Invisalign diet.
Dental Care Travel Kit
We highly recommend that Invisalign® patients keep a small toothbrush, toothpaste, and dental floss kit with them at all times. This is because you will need to clean your teeth on the go.
How Long Does Invisalign® Refinement Take?
The length of your treatment depends on your unique dental needs. However, most Invisalign® treatments only take about or up to a single year.
Invisalign® Post-Treatment Retainer
After your Invisalign® treatment ends, you will still need to wear retainers at night for a period of time. This ensures your teeth remain straight and your bite stays balanced.
Straight, Healthy Teeth Lowers Risk of Developing Chronic Health Issues
Misaligned or crooked teeth can lead to conditions such as premature wear, tooth loss, gum disease, and bacteria buildup. The buildup of bad bacteria over time can lead to bigger or more chronic problems, including heart disease. An incorrect bite can also cause you to experience one or more of the following:
Benefits of Straight and Healthy Teeth
As your teeth become properly aligned, it becomes easier to brush and floss around them. Here are some of the health benefits you reap from having properly aligned teeth:
Improved Hygiene
Less Wear and Trauma
Stress Reduce
Your Smile Deserves the Best
We highly recommend avoiding cheaper third-party systems or Invisalign® knock-offs. Invisalign® is a proprietary innovation with decades of research and development.
