Unlike braces, Invisalign won’t stop you from eating the foods you want, and it blends in with your smile much better.

How Invisalign Works
We will carefully take records of your mouth to send to Invisalign. They, in turn, will use this information to create your customized Invisalign trays. You’ll wear your aligners night and day, removing them only to brush, floss, eat, and drink anything other than water. As your smile responds to this treatment, you’ll upgrade to the next aligner in the series. This usually happens about every two weeks.
Regular visits are necessary during your treatment time, so we can check that your teeth are responding positively to this therapy. Please feel free to ask any questions that you have about your Invisalign system. Our team will be happy to help as you work to achieve a beautiful, healthy smile!
Who Invisalign Can Help
Fortunately, Invisalign is both discreet and versatile. In fact, it can help patients with mild spacing issues, considerable overbites, and just about everything in between! If you’re interested in finding out if you’re a candidate, schedule a consultation with us. You can also read on to learn more about the orthodontic problems clear aligners can correct.
Crowded Teeth
Leaving misaligned teeth to their own devices can result in many complications. This is especially true for crooked teeth, which are harder to care for and leave you susceptible to common oral health problems. Fortunately, Invisalign is often a solution! If that’s the case for you, then we will gently move your teeth into their properly aligned positions with clear, metal-free aligners.
Gaps Between Teeth
Since gaps can also negatively impact the health of your teeth and gums, we recommend exploring your orthodontic treatment options sooner rather than later. If we determine that Invisalign is an option, we will create a custom series of aligners to gradually bring your teeth together, improving the appearance and health of your smile in the process.
Bite Alignment
Unfortunately, underbites, crossbites, and other common bite problems can lead to numerous issues – from chronic jaw pain to premature wear and tear on your teeth. There is some good news though: Invisalign aligners can improve the alignment of your teeth as well as your bite. In other words, achieving a healthier, happier smile may not involve any metal!
The Benefits of Invisalign
Invisalign invisible braces can help you get the great smile you have always wanted because they're:
- Invisible, so no one can tell you are straightening your teeth. Now you can smile more during treatment as well as after.
- Removable, allowing you to eat and drink what you want while in treatment.
- Comfortable, because it has no metal to cause mouth abrasions during treatment, and you will spend less time in Dr. Donnelly's office getting adjustments.
- Convenient, because the average treatment timeline is only 12-18 months, and the check-in visits are usually every 6-8 weeks instead of every 4.
How Much Does Invisalign Cost?
If you’ve been trying to pinpoint the cost of Invisalign online, you might notice that there isn’t a single answer. That’s because there are so many factors that need to be considered! In addition to the severity of your case, we need to determine if any preliminary treatments are needed, how many aligners need to be made, and if additional orthodontic accessories need to be added to your treatment plan. Only then can we provide you with an accurate estimate of the cost and review the financial solutions available.
