What Is Invisalign®?
Dentist Marion
Invisalign® is a clear aligner system that offers a discreet, comfortable way to straighten your teeth without metal brackets or wires. Each set of custom-made aligners is designed to gently move your teeth into their ideal position over time. Because they’re nearly invisible when worn, Invisalign® is a popular option for patients who want a subtle solution.
Aligners are worn for 20 to 22 hours a day and switched out approximately every two weeks as your teeth progress through each stage of movement. Invisalign® can effectively treat a range of mild to moderate alignment concerns, including crowding, gaps, and bite issues like overbite or underbite. Since they’re removable, aligners make it easy to eat, brush, and floss normally throughout your treatment. It’s a simple, flexible solution that fits into your lifestyle while delivering beautiful, lasting results. Whether you’re a teen or adult, Invisalign® offers a comfortable and effective way to achieve the straight, beautiful smile you’ve always wanted.

Benefits of Invisalign®
Dentist Marion
Nearly Invisible Appearance
Clear aligners are discreet and blend in with your natural teeth, allowing you to straighten your smile without drawing attention. They’re ideal for patients who want subtle, effective treatment.
Removable for Flexibility
Invisalign® aligners can be removed for eating, brushing, and special occasions. This makes it easier to maintain your oral hygiene and enjoy your favorite foods during treatment.
Comfortable and Smooth Fit
The custom-made aligners are smooth and precisely shaped to your teeth, reducing irritation to your cheeks and gums. They offer a more comfortable alternative to metal brackets and wires.

The Invisalign® Process
Dentist Marion
1
Digital Scanning and Treatment Planning
We begin by taking digital impressions of your teeth to map out your custom treatment plan. This allows us to design a series of aligners that move your teeth gradually and predictably into alignment.
2
Wearing and Changing Aligners
You’ll wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, removing them only to eat, brush, and floss. Every new set continues to shift your teeth until they reach the desired position.
3
Monitoring and Final Results
We’ll check in regularly to track your progress and make sure your teeth are moving according to plan. Once treatment is complete, we’ll provide retainers to help you maintain your beautiful new smile long-term.
