Invisalign® - Haworth, NJ

The Clear Choice in Discreet Orthodontics

What Are Invisalign® Clear Aligners?

Your smile is one of the first things that people notice about you. Having a beautiful straight smile can improve the way you are perceived by others daily. The most effective method for straightening teeth is orthodontics, but many people do not like the idea of wearing metal brackets and wires for months to years. This is where Invisalign® stands out among cosmetic dentistry procedures—it is an orthodontic solution that uses clear plastic aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Most people will never know you are even wearing Invisalign as the aligners are practically invisible while in the mouth. Typically, most of our Haworth, NJ, Invisalign patients see their final, straight teeth results in less time than traditional orthodontics!

Step 1: Preview Your Final Results

One of the first steps towards your Invisalign solution is our Virtual Smile Consult technology. This smile preview technology allows us to digitally create your Invisalign results so you can see what your teeth will look like once your treatment is complete. This helps patients who are on the fence on deciding if Invisalign or orthodontics are right for them, and lets them make modifications to ensure the smile matches their personality, facial features and unique preferences.

Step 2: Digitally Planning Your Invisalign Treatment

Once you have decided to continue with Invisalign treatment, we will capture digital images of your current bite and tooth positions. We have a handheld intraoral camera that replaces the need for messy, goopy, gag-inducing impressions. We take the pictures this intraoral camera captures and create a treatment plan for your Invisalign case, including how long you will wear the aligners and how many sets of Invisalign trays you will need.

Step 3: Wearing Your Invisalign Aligners

The Invisalign treatment process is especially easy for most patients as it does not cause restrictions like traditional metal braces do. You will wear your Invisalign aligners for 20-22 hours every day, only taking them out to eat, drink or clean your teeth. The aligners are made from a comfortable, yet strong, plastic that does not hurt the gums or lips and are easily removable so you can eat your favorite foods without restriction. Patients enjoy improved oral health with Invisalign since they are able to remove the aligners to brush and floss teeth without having to worry about getting around the braces.

Step 4: Changing the Aligners

Every one to two weeks, depending on your specific case, you will switch out your current set of aligners for new ones that slightly adjust your teeth further into the correct position. Over the course of your treatment plan, your teeth will carefully align into proper position as you cycle through multiple Invisalign trays. With proper compliance with Invisalign, many patients reach their final smile in less time than traditional braces and with fewer visits to the dentist!
