Invisalign – Invisible Braces
Plenty of Richmond adults never had braces as teenagers and are not eager to wear brackets to work now. Invisalign swaps the wires for a series of clear, custom-fitted aligners that slip over your teeth and are hard to spot across a conference table.
Treatment moves in stages. After an evaluation we take digital scans and map how each tooth needs to travel. You wear each set of aligners one to two weeks, taking them out to eat, to drink anything but water, and to brush. Over the following months the series walks your teeth into position, with short check-ins to confirm things are tracking.
Clear aligners handle crowding, spacing, and many bite issues well — but not every case. Some movements still call for conventional orthodontics, and we will tell you plainly if that is where you land. A consultation is how you find out: we look at your bite, hear what bothers you, and give you a straight answer.
Why patients choose clear aligners
- Nearly invisible in photos and at work
- Removable for meals, brushing, and special occasions
- No brackets or wires to irritate your cheeks
- Fewer and shorter adjustment visits than traditional braces
