If the thought of wearing braces is holding you back from improving your smile...here is some great news. We now have a state-of-the-art alternative to braces that is virtually undetectable to other people. Invisalign straightens your teeth, not with brackets or wires, but with a series of clear, customized, removable appliances called aligners.
Invisalign uses the latest 3-D computer technology to create your customized aligners. Together we determine what we want to change and correct in your smile and bite relationship. Invisalign uses advanced computer technology to translate our treatment instructions into a sequence of precisely customized aligners. You then wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, moving your teeth gradually, week by week, millimeter by millimeter, until you've achieved the intended result -- straighter teeth! You will visit us no more than you would with braces and the length of treatment is the same.
Because there are no metal wires or brackets, Invisalign is comfortable. And because it's removable, eating, brushing, and flossing are not a problem. You can still enjoy your favorite foods and smile without holding back. With Invisalign there's nothing to hide. We invite you to talk with us about Invisalign, the clear alternative to braces.
While Invisalign in incredibly effective, there are situations where traditional orthodontics may be a better choice for you. Dr. Fay will review your individual needs and recommend the best solution for you!
