Invisalign Braces

The Alternative To Metal Braces For Kids and Adults

Invisalign straightens teeth using a series of smooth plastic aligners that are almost invisible. The trays slip on and off easily which allows you to eat, brush and floss as you normally do.

The most common issues can include:

Overly Crowded Teeth – Not enough space for all your teeth to fit normally.
Widely Spaced Teeth – Having too much space between one or more teeth
Crossbite/Overbite/Underbite – Misaligned jaw placement causing both the upper and lower jaw to line up incorrectly.
Crooked Teeth – When one or more teeth are not in line with each other.

Your first Invisalign appointment will first start by examining your mouth including your teeth, jaw, jaw joints, muscles, and view them as a complete functional system and decide whether Invisalign is the correct treatment. Precise impressions of your teeth are then submitted to the Invisalign labs.

Using the latest advances in 3-D computer technology, Align Technology will create your custom aligners based upon the doctor’s instructions. Invisalign consists of a series of aligners that you replace every two to three weeks. Each aligner is custom-made and is designed to progressively shift your teeth into proper alignment. The length of treatment can vary from a few months to a few years.

Invisalign Express

Invisalign Express consists of a maximum of 10 trays in the system, which is a minimum of 20 weeks of treatment not including retainer treatment.

This is for cases that require little movement, mild crowding and mild to no rotation. Great system for rebound cases of people who had braces before.

Call us for an Invisalign consultation at our Guelph dentist office today.

The consultation appointment will include precise impression taking, intraoral photos and submission to the Invisalign labs. We can show you in just a couple of weeks how your smile can change with our 3D computer software.
