Alexandria Cosmetic Dentistry Serving Arlington, Washington, DC, and Surrounding Areas

What is Invisalign?

It's a series of custom-made appliances that you wear in your mouth, in succession, in order to straighten your teeth.

How does Invisalign work?

The series of appliances gradually shift your teeth into a straighter position.

How long does Invisalign take?

It depends upon the severity of your needs, but typically around a year.

How noticeable is Invisalign?

The appliances are plastic and clear. They are very thin, and hardly noticeable at all. Most people throughout your day will not notice that you're wearing them.

What is it like to wear Invisalign?

You will wear them day and night, although they are removable. You will take them out to brush your teeth, and you may also take them out for special occasions. The appliances are worn in succession, and you change them about every month.

Does Invisalign hurt?

No, after a few days most patients forget they're even wearing the appliances. Additionally, Invisalign shifts and moves your teeth very gradually, so there is little pain associated with the straightening.

What is the end result?

Straight, healthy teeth.
