Invisible Braces
What is Invisalign?
It is a type of orthodontic treatment to align/straighten your teeth.
Invisalign aligners are the clear alternative to regular metal/ceramic braces. These clear aligners are the virtually invisible way to improve your smile.
It involves wearing a set of customized aligners that will shift your teeth in the proper position.
Aligners are transparent trays that you will need to wear for maximum hours/day except while eating/drinking.
Why Invisalign over traditional braces?
