Interested in Invisalign? Let’s get started!
Patients love the Invisalign system! It’s easy, comfortable, and fits the lifestyle of people who don’t want to wear traditional metal braces. Invisalign is a patented system of customized clear aligners that are engineered to straighten your teeth quickly and comfortably. They’re a discreet treatment that effectively straightens teeth and improves your smile.
To find out if you’re a candidate for Invisalign, we invite you to book a free consultation with one of our trained Invisalign dentists.
What are the benefits of Invisalign?
Invisalign is an alternative to traditional braces that are designed to straighten teeth using clear custom-made plastic aligners. By far, one of the biggest benefits of Invisalign is that they are nearly invisible with no metal brackets or wires. Patients can also remove them to eat and brush and floss their teeth. Invisalign can help you achieve a straight smile with no restriction on food and no constraints for cleaning your teeth.
Can Invisalign fix my bite?
Yes, in many cases Invisalign can correct mild to moderate underbites, overbites, and crossbites. However, there are some instances where traditional orthodontic methods are required. A free consultation with one of our Invisalign-trained dentists at Brentwood Village Dental Clinic can determine whether this method of teeth straightening will work for you.
Is Invisalign painful?
It’s normal to feel temporary discomfort for the first few days of wearing aligners. Patients typically report that the discomfort disappears after a few days. Invisalign straightens your teeth by applying gentle, constant pressure which is a sign that they are working to transform your smile!

If you choose our payment plan option you will be required to make an approx. payment of $2100.00 to start treatment.
