The Invisalign system is a series of clear aligners used to straighten teeth.

Will Invisalign treatment fit my lifestyle?

  • Time for a snack? No problem. Take out your aligners to eat or drink whenever you want.

  • You can remove your Invisalign aligners so you can brush and floss regularly, and keep your teeth and gums healthy.

  • You can occasionally remove your Invisalign aligners to enjoy a special night out.

  • There’s no need to change a thing. Continue your day-to-day activities while still straightening your teeth.

  • Be yourself with Invisalign aligners. Since they are clear, you don’t have to hide your smile while going through treatment.

  • With Invisalign treatment, it’s easy to make your smile picture-perfect for that special occasion.

  • Invisalign treatment appointments work with your schedule. Most visits are in and out, with a quick progress check once every six weeks.

What is the Invisalign system?

The Invisalign system is the virtually invisible way to straighten your teeth and achieve the smile you’ve always wanted. Invisalign treatment uses advanced 3D computer imaging technology to depict your complete treatment plan, from the initial position of your teeth to the final desired position.

Then a series of clear aligners are custom-made for your teeth — and your teeth only — to move them little by little. Each aligner is worn for about one week before being replaced by the next in the series until the final position of your teeth is achieved.

Your Invisalign treatment time will be determined by your doctor based on your specific needs.

What are the primary benefits of Invisalign treatment?

Invisalign aligners are clear, which makes Invisalign treatment a seamless fit with your lifestyle and day-to-day interactions with others. Invisalign aligners are also removable. Unlike braces, you have the flexibility to eat and drink what you want during treatment simply by removing the aligners when you eat. You can also remove the aligners to brush and floss as you normally would for fresh breath and good oral hygiene.

Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign treatment does not use metal brackets or wires that could cause irritation to your mouth. In addition, you’ll spend less time in the doctor’s chair and scheduling appointments, and more time out doing the things you love.

Lastly, Invisalign treatment technology allows you to view your virtual results and treatment plan before you start your treatment, so you can preview how your straight teeth will look once your treatment is complete.

How many patients are in Invisalign treatment?

More than 5,000,000 patients worldwide have been treated with Invisalign aligners. The number of Invisalign smiles grows daily. At your next appointment, we can answer any questions you might have, and get you started on the smile you’ve always wanted.

Invisalign and the Invisalign logo, among others, are trademarks of Align Technology, Inc., and are registered in the U.S. and other countries.

Our son has been going to Highland Kids Dentistry since he was a toddler and they are fantastic! Especially with calming nerves. Both Dr. Shadi and Dr. Garcia are kind, caring, and so great with kids. They never rush and explain tooth care in a way the kids can understand. The hygienists and front desk are very friendly too!

This place is amazing. The decor of the lobby is really cute and kid friendly. Video games for the kiddos to wait for the Dr. The staff were very friendly and good with the kids. Made my little one feel welcomed and comfortable. They let the kids watch movies/shows while getting worked on. Overall this place was amazing. The nurses and Dr. were the best!

All 4 of my kids have been going here for years. I’ve never seen kids so excited to go to the dentist! Their office and staff could not be more warm and welcoming. Through X-rays and cavities and even breaking my toddler from her pacifier addiction—they have been top notch all the way and truly make it a pleasure for children and parents alike. Thank you!!
