What is Invisalign?
Invisalign uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners to move your teeth gradually into place. Each set is worn for about one to two weeks before you switch to the next, and because the aligners are virtually invisible and removable, they fit seamlessly into daily life. It’s a more aesthetic, comfortable alternative to metal braces — designed with advanced 3D imaging for a precise fit that’s unique to you.
