Invisalign
Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually straighten teeth. Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign aligners are nearly invisible and custom-made to fit comfortably over your teeth.
The treatment begins with a digital scan of your teeth, allowing the dentist to create a personalized treatment plan. Each set of aligners is worn for about 1–2 weeks before moving to the next set, slowly shifting the teeth into their ideal position.
