Invisalign® Orthodontics

What is Invisalign®?

Invisalign is the invisible way to straighten your teeth without braces. Invisalign uses a series of clear removable aligners (pictured to the left) to straighten your teeth without metal wires or brackets. Invisalign® has been proven effective in clinical research and in orthodontic practices nationwide. In fact, over 70% of all U.S. orthodontists are certified to treat patients with Invisalign.

How Does Invisalign® Work?

You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.

As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move - little by little, week by week - until they have straightened to the final position

You'll visit Dr. Robertson about once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.

Total treatment time averages 9-15 months and the average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but both will vary from case to case.

How Are Aligners Made? You'd Be Amazed...

The aligners are made through a combination of Dr. Robertson's expertise and 3-D computer imaging technology. ( click here ) to learn more about how technology plays a vital role in the Invisalign process).
