Invisalign® Invisible Adult Braces

For adult and teenage patients with crooked or gapped teeth, wearing braces is a prospect to be avoided by any means possible. Though traditional braces are a very effective treatment for crooked and gapped teeth, their uncomfortable, aesthetically displeasing, and bothersome nature make them an unpopular choice among older people.

However, with the revolutionary technology of Invisalign® invisible braces, adults are now able to receive the benefits of braces without the unsightliness of metal wires and brackets. Invisalign® uses a series of clear and removable aligners rather than brackets and wires. Instead of constantly visiting the dentist to have wires retightened, with Invisalign® all you need do to continue the correction process is come in regularly to receive a new set of aligners. These invisible braces can be removed before eating, brushing your teeth, or flossing to minimize hassle and inconvenience.

The Invisalign® invisible adult braces treatment begins during a visit to Dr. Megan O’Malley. During your initial visit, Dr. O’Malley will create and assess a three-dimensional model made by a computer to optimize a treatment plan. With the optimized treatment plan, the aligners will gradually shift your teeth over two-week intervals. Each subsequent set of clear aligners will gently shift your teeth further toward a correct position.
