INVISALIGN Beverly Hills

About Invisalign

Invisalign aligners are a game-changer for anyone looking to straighten their teeth without the hassle of traditional braces. These clear, removable trays do everything braces can — minus the brackets and wires.

Perfect for adults who want to maintain a polished appearance or those with jobs that make braces impractical, Invisalign offers a discreet way to achieve the smile you've always wanted. They're easy to slip off for meals, photos, or important moments, making them a flexible, confidence-boosting choice for today's lifestyle.

Benefits of Invisalign

Invisalign provides a method of straightening teeth without the inconvenience and discomfort that can come with wearing heavy, metal braces. Additionally, they are easy to remove for cleaning and do not require any dietary restrictions. The benefits of Invisalign can be summed as follows:

• Invisibility: Invisalign aligners are clear and virtually invisible, making them a discreet option for teeth straightening.
• Aesthetic Appeal: Invisalign allows you to improve your smile without the noticeable appearance of traditional braces.
• Removability: Invisalign aligners are removable, allowing for easy cleaning of both the aligners and your teeth.
• Comfort: Invisalign aligners are made of smooth, comfortable plastic, eliminating the irritation and discomfort associated with metal brackets and wires.
• No Dietary Restrictions: Since the aligners are removable, there are no restrictions on what you can eat. You can enjoy all your favorite foods without worrying about damaging braces.
• Easier Oral Hygiene: With Invisalign, you can maintain better oral hygiene because you can brush and floss your teeth as usual, without navigating around braces.
• Predictable Results: Invisalign uses advanced technology to create a 3D model of your teeth, allowing for more precise treatment planning and predictable results.
• Fewer Office Visits: In some cases, Invisalign may require fewer office visits compared to traditional braces, as there are no adjustments or wire tightening needed.
• Comfortable Aligner Changes: The gradual shift from one set of aligners to the next is generally more comfortable than the adjustments associated with traditional braces.
• Less Impact on Speech: These clear teeth aligners have less impact on speech compared to traditional braces, as there are no metal components that can affect pronunciation.
• Reduced Risk of Damage: Since the aligners are smooth and free of protruding parts, there's a reduced risk of mouth sores or injuries caused by metal wires and brackets.
• Suitable for Various Orthodontic Issues: Invisalign can be used to address a variety of orthodontic issues, including crowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, and crossbites.

Is Invisalign right for me?

Many patients who've used traditional braces feel teeth straightening is cumbersome and uncomfortable. Invisalign has become a go-to for those looking to align their teeth without the clunky hardware of traditional braces. It's ideal for tackling mild to moderate issues like crowding, gaps, or minor bite concerns.

That said, it's not a one-size-fits-all solution. More complex alignment challenges or jaw corrections might need alternative treatments, and Invisalign isn't recommended for younger children whose mouths are still growing. But for teens and adults, it's a discreet, confidence-boosting way to own your smile.

Discomfort with Invisalign

Any treatment that moves your teeth will come with a little pressure. But with Invisalign, it's minimal. You might feel some tightness when you pop in a new set of aligners, but this usually fades in a day or two. Unlike traditional braces, there are no wires or brackets to irritate your gums. Just smooth, custom-fit aligners designed with your comfort in mind.

These will be used to produce a 3D model of your mouth out of which clear aligners, called "trays" will be created.

Before your trays are finalized we work with the manufacturers of Invisalign to make sure all the details are exactly right and your teeth alignment goals and needs are properly factored in. Once we're happy, your first set of trays are produced.

Each set of trays is worn for approximately two weeks and only removed for eating, brushing and flossing. Once that set of trays has done its job, you will move on to the next set, each on gradually and incrementally moving your teeth until they reach the optimal position.

The overall length of the process varies depending upon how much movement is needed to properly align your smile. In some cases, it may be necessary for us to remove teeth to make room for the alignment process.
