What is Invisalign and How Does it Work?

Invisalign is a clear aligner tray used to straighten teeth and improve oral health over time. Every few weeks, the wearer switches to a new clear tray, which is custom-made to perfectly fit each unique smile.

The trays use constant pressure to usher a smile into a more functional, healthy, cosmetically pleasing, and comfortable position. They work similarly to braces but don’t require metal wires or brackets. Invisalign also doesn’t require periodic tightening at the orthodontist’s office, though you should meet with your practitioner regularly to ensure progress is being made as expected.
