Invisalign® has revolutionized orthodontics, offering people a cleaner, less invasive way to straighten their teeth while continuing their daily lives nearly uninterrupted.
With Invisalign®, you can get the smile you’ve always wanted without the appearance of metal braces.
Invisalign® is a form of braces. Unlike traditional braces that place brackets, wires and elastic ties on the teeth, Invisalign® uses clear tray aligners.
Invisalign® clear aligners are molded from plastic, removable, and custom-made for each individual. When worn, they gently apply pressure on the teeth to move them slowly into their ideal position.
After having a consultation with your orthodontist, we will take impressions of your mouth. These impressions are used to create the unique tray aligners for your treatment.
Invisalign® treatment uses a series of aligners that must be replaced about every two weeks, with each one feeling slightly different than the last as they continually shift and realign your teeth.
The aligner trays must be worn for 20-22 hours every day for effective results, but they can be removed when eating, drinking, brushing, flossing and even for special occasions as wearers see fit.
Invisalign® clear aligners can be used to treat the following issues:

The length of treatment will vary case by case. Minor cases can take as few as 3 months to treat and complex or severe cases can take up to three years. Our orthodontist will go over your unique treatment plan during your initial Invisalign® consultation.
The price of Invisalign® will depend on your specific treatment needs, but generally starts around $3,000. Dental insurance will usually cover Invisalign® to the same degree that traditional metal braces are covered. Gardena Dental Care offers payment and financing options as well to make sure you receive the dental treatment you need.
