Invisalign
Straighten your smile discreetly with clear aligner treatment.
About Invisalign
Invisalign clear aligners gently move teeth into place with removable trays that fit your lifestyle — ideal for teens and adults who want a straighter smile without traditional braces.
Invisalign is the discreet alternative to metal braces. Using a series of custom-made, transparent aligners, your teeth are gradually shifted into their ideal positions — all without brackets, wires, or visible hardware. Each set of aligners is worn for 1-2 weeks (20-22 hours per day) and then stepped up to the next in your sequence. A full treatment plan is generated with 3D imaging software (ClinCheck) so you can see the projected outcome before you start. Our team has years of Invisalign experience and can handle everything from simple crowding to complex bite corrections.

Process
What to expect
A clear, step-by-step journey from consultation to results.
Scan and digital planning
We take a 3D digital scan of your teeth. Using ClinCheck software, Dr. Ghisalberti designs your personalised treatment plan — you see the projected result before anything starts.
Receive your aligners
Your custom aligner series is fabricated and shipped to our office. We schedule a fitting visit where you try the first set and learn the care routine.
Wear and progress
Wear each aligner set for 1-2 weeks, 20-22 hours daily. Return every 6-8 weeks for a check-in to confirm progress.
Refinement (if needed)
If small gaps remain, additional 'refinement' scans and aligner sets can fine-tune your bite. This is common and keeps results precise.
Retention
Once alignment is complete, you receive a custom retainer to maintain your new smile. Nightly wear is recommended long-term.
Patient care
Is this right for you?
Invisalign is suitable for adults and teens (age 13+) with mild to moderate crowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. Not recommended for severe skeletal malocclusions — Dr. Ghisalberti will assess your case during the consultation and recommend the best approach.
FAQ
Common questions about Invisalign
Quick answers to the questions we hear most often.
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
Most treatments range from 6 to 18 months, depending on complexity. Simple cases may be done in under 6 months; comprehensive cases take closer to 12-18 months.
Does Invisalign hurt?
You may feel slight pressure or tightness when switching to a new aligner set — this means it's working. Any discomfort is mild and fades within a couple of days.
Can I eat with Invisalign?
You remove the aligners to eat and drink anything other than water. This means no dietary restrictions — you enjoy your food and then put your aligners back in.
Is Invisalign covered by insurance?
Many dental plans cover Invisalign similarly to braces (often $1,000-$2,000). We accept third-party financing through CareCredit and offer in-house payment plans.
