Invisalign

Invisalign has emerged as dentists’ and patients’ favored method of teeth-straightening for several reasons.  Invisalign translucent aligners cannot be seen by the naked eye unless people are within an inch or two of your mouth.  Invisalign aligners straighten teeth with translucent aligners as opposed to the unsightly metal brackets of yesteryear.  Furthermore, Invisalign aligners do not have the sharp edges of metal brackets, meaning there is no risk of these aligners damaging your gums, teeth, cheeks, lips or other parts of your mouth.  Our dentist in Carol Stream will take impressions of your mouth to create customized aligners that you add in a sequential manner at strategic times. 

Your Invisalign trays are customized for your specific mouth, ensuring your teeth gradually move into position within a year’s time or less.  Schedule an appointment with our Carol Stream dentist and we’ll provide more information about Invisalign aligners, the estimated length of treatment, the molding process and fittings.  The Invisalign modeling process scans your mouth, takes images and x-rays to create an accurate representation of your unique teeth and gums.  Your personalized Invsialign aligner trays are then made in a dental laboratory.  Our dentist fits the initial tray to your mouth, ensures the optimal fit in ensuing appointments and ultimately straightens your crooked teeth in about a year’s time.
