Invisalign in Brunswick, OH

Achieve a Beautiful, Aligned Smile Discreetly

If you’re seeking a discreet or more flexible alternative to traditional braces, clear aligners may be the perfect solution. Our Brunswick, OH team is here to guide you through every step toward a confident, aligned smile.

How Clear Aligners Work

Clear aligners use a series of clear, removable aligners that gently shift your teeth into their desired positions over time. Each set of aligners is worn for about two weeks before moving to the next stage, making it possible to gradually straighten your smile without disrupting your daily routine.

Benefits of Clear Aligners

Clear Aligners provide a range of benefits over traditional braces, making it an ideal option for many patients:

• Discreet Appearance: Clear aligners are nearly invisible, allowing you to smile confidently throughout treatment.
• Removable and Convenient: You can remove your aligners to eat, brush, and floss, making it easier to maintain good oral hygiene.
• Comfortable Fit: Made from smooth, BPA-free plastic, clear aligners are custom-designed for comfort and fit, reducing irritation on your gums and cheeks.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners are suitable for both teens and adults and can address various orthodontic issues, including:

• Crowded Teeth: Aligners gently move crowded teeth into better alignment.
• Gaps and Spacing: Clear aligners can close gaps between teeth for a more uniform appearance.
• Bite Issues: Clear aligners can correct mild to moderate overbites, underbites, and crossbites.

Our Clear Aligners Process

1. Initial Consultation: We begin with a thorough consultation to understand your smile goals and determine if clear aligners are the best option.
2. Digital Impressions with iTero: Using the iTero digital scanner, we take precise 3D images of your teeth to create your custom aligners. This eliminates the need for traditional molds and provides highly accurate impressions.
3. Aligner Fitting and Instructions: Once your aligners are ready, we fit them and provide instructions on wear and care. You’ll wear each aligner for approximately 20–22 hours per day, changing them every two weeks as prescribed.
4. Regular Check-Ups: We’ll schedule periodic check-ups to monitor your progress and provide new aligners as your treatment progresses.

Clear Aligners vs. Traditional Braces

Without metal brackets or wires, there is less irritation, and you have the freedom to eat your favorite foods. Additionally, with fewer office visits required, clear aligners are a flexible option that can easily fit into a busy schedule.
