Invisalign consists of a customized series of clear, removable aligners created using data from a 3-D image of your mouth and teeth. The aligners move your teeth in tiny increments into the desired alignment. Each set of aligners is worn for about 2 weeks before being replaced with the next in the series.
You’ll visit our offices once every 6-8 weeks for a progress check. The entire process will take approximately 12-24 months, with a total of 18-30 sets of aligners used to move your teeth from their original position into a beautiful, straight smile.
- You can remove your aligners to eat (meaning no dietary restrictions)
- You can experience complete comfort (the aligners have no metal or wires)
- Adjustments are easy – just move up a size in your aligner sets
- Everything feels comfortable – you can even sleep in your aligners
- Few will even know you have braces (aligners are almost invisible)
- Brushing and flossing is simple since you just take the aligners out
- Aligners can be switched out with a mouthguard for sports, or removed for photoshoots or special events.
If you have been considering braces but haven’t wanted the hassle of traditional metal and wire braces, call our Wichita dental office at for an Invisalign consultation. We serve patients in Wichita, KS, and surrounding communities.
