Metal Braces

Invisalign®

This system is available to adult patients with certain orthodontic bite problems. Ask us if you are a candidate for the Invisalign System.

Invisalign® Teen

Invisalign Teen is the clear way to straighten teeth without metal braces, using aligners. Aligners are removable and virtually invisible, which means you can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing; and you can still eat and drink what you want. Also, you can brush and floss normally to maintain healthy gums and teeth; and there are no wires, metal or brackets to cause mouth abrasions.
