Comfortable – No metal brackets or wires to irritate your mouth
Convenient – Fewer dental visits than traditional braces
Precise – 3D technology plans your exact treatment
Custom-Made – Each aligner fits your teeth perfectly
What Invisalign Treats

Tooth Gaps – Spaces that trap food and affect your bite
