Invisalign® Clear Braces
Invisalign® is the preferred teeth-straightening method for many adults who require orthodontic treatment but who do not want visible brackets and wires in their mouth. Instead of using traditional metal parts to apply pressure to the teeth, Invisalign® uses a series of clear, thermoplastic aligners. You wear each custom-made aligner for 20 – 22 hours each day for about two weeks before moving onto the next aligner. After you work your way through all of the aligners, your teeth should be in their correct places.
Invisalign® is very discreet, but that is not its only advantage. The aligners are removable, a fact that allows you to stick to your normal eating and oral hygiene practices throughout treatment. Plus, the smooth plastic is designed to be as comfortable as possible in the mouth.

Traditional Braces
Traditional braces have been used by generations of patients to achieve a healthier, straighter smile. Today, they are as relevant as ever. Using a series of brackets and wires, they apply pressure to the teeth in order to correct misalignment over time. Braces can address mild to severe cases, and they are appropriate for people of almost any age. They tend to be one of the most cost-effective ways to address orthodontic problems.
