Enjoy the Ease of Removable Aligners With Invisalign in Lexington
Thanks to clear ceramic brackets and other inconspicuous materials, not all braces stand out in your smile. But they do make oral hygiene more of a chore. Food can get stuck in them, where it’s difficult to remove. You won’t have to alter your brushing and flossing routine with Invisalign®. It uses clear plastic aligners instead of metal wires and brackets to straighten teeth. Just remove your aligners when it’s time for tooth care.

A lot of adults prefer Invisalign, because it's something that they can wear all the time in public, at work, and not feel self-conscious, but know that something's being done, their teeth are moving. It's become a lot more independent, so patients know now they can come in, get their trays in that first visit, and they don't have to come back in a few weeks like they used to have to. Now we can push it out a few months, and that makes it more flexible for the patient and their schedule.
The results with Invisalign are very comparable to traditional metal braces. Sometimes it takes a little bit longer. But now how they're having patients do a lot of it on their own, but they're still being checked by us, which is important. But that's getting things done quicker. A lot of cases that people didn't think they could do in the past are now being able to be done with Invisalign. So some of the changes are amazing.
Making it easy to care for your teeth is a great benefit, but it’s not the only one. Invisalign® aligners are also:
- Practically Invisible – The clear aligners fit snugly over your teeth, where most people won’t even notice them. You can remove your aligners for photos – but you may not even feel the need to!
- Comfortable – There are no metal brackets or wires to rub against your cheeks and gums.
- Faster Than Braces – The average treatment time for adult teeth is 12 months. That’s faster than conventional braces.
- More Convenient – You won’t need to check in as frequently with our dentists for progress updates. Unlike braces, you won’t need frequent adjustments.

Invisalign® Aligners Are Made to Our Exact Specifications
Our dentists take digital X-rays and impressions of your teeth, then use special 3D software to create a treatment plan for you. The information is sent to an Invisalign® lab, where they create the aligners to our specifications. We’ll check the fit of your first set of aligners and review your treatment plan with you.
Every two weeks or so, you simply change to the next set of aligners in the series. You’ll visit us about every six weeks for a quick checkup. Invisalign® can work in as little as 12 months, though treatment may take longer depending on your orthodontic issues.

Invisalign® aligners can treat overcrowding, gaps, crossbites, overbites, and underbites. Patients with severe bite problems or other larger orthodontic issues may not be good candidates. We offer many other orthodontic solutions, including Fastbraces® and clear ceramic braces. Together we’ll find one that fits your needs.
