Invisalign and other clear aligner systems use a series of custom-made, transparent trays to gradually move your teeth into their ideal position. These trays are designed to fit snugly over your teeth, applying gentle pressure for precise tooth movement. Unlike traditional braces, clear aligners are removable and nearly invisible, making them an excellent option for those who want to straighten their teeth discreetly.

Here’s how the process works:

1. Initial Consultation: During your first visit, we’ll assess your teeth and discuss your treatment goals. We'll then use advanced digital imaging to create a 3D model of your smile, which will serve as the blueprint for your aligners.
2. Custom Aligners: Based on your treatment plan, we’ll create a series of aligners designed to gradually move your teeth into your custom alignment. You’ll wear each set of aligners for about 1-2 weeks before switching to the next set in the series.
3. Ongoing Progress: You’ll visit our office every few months so we can check your progress and ensure your teeth are moving as planned. Most Invisalign treatments take anywhere from 12-18 months, though your timeline may vary depending on your unique needs.
4. Reveal Your New Smile: Once your treatment is complete, you’ll have the straight, confident smile you’ve always wanted—without the hassle of traditional braces! To maintain your results, we’ll provide you with a retainer to wear at night, helping keep your teeth in their proper positions.

Clear aligners offer several benefits over traditional metal braces, making them ideal for patients seeking a flexible, undetectable orthodontic treatment. Here’s why Invisalign is such a popular choice at Espire Dental Northwest OKC:

• Discreet and Virtually Invisible
  The clear trays are virtually invisible when worn, making them an excellent option for adults, teens, and professionals who want to straighten their teeth without anyone noticing. Whether presenting at work or hanging out with friends, you can smile confidently, knowing your aligners are practically undetectable.‍
• Comfortable and Removable
  Unlike metal braces that can cause irritation or discomfort, clear aligners are made from smooth plastic, making them more comfortable to wear. They’re also removable, so you can take them out while eating, brushing, and flossing. This flexibility allows you to maintain your oral hygiene routine and enjoy your favorite foods without restrictions.‍
• Fast and Effective Results
  Whether you have mild crowding, spacing issues, or more complex alignment needs, clear aligners are designed to move your teeth in a controlled and efficient manner and usually deliver results in as little as 12 months. Plus, because you don’t have to deal with brackets or wires, fewer office visits are needed for adjustments, making it a convenient option for busy schedules.‍
• Suitable for All Ages
  Whether you’re a student looking for a confident smile, a young professional seeking a more polished appearance, or a mature adult finally ready to invest in yourself, clear aligners are a perfect fit. Invisalign is designed to treat a wide range of cases—from simple cosmetic adjustments to more complex bite issues—meaning patients of all ages can benefit from this treatment!
