Invisalign in Clovis, CA

Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that can straighten your teeth discreetly and comfortably. It uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners that gradually shift your teeth into alignment. Invisalign is a popular choice amongst our adult and teen patients who would prefer to avoid chunky, uncomfortable metal braces. Instead, you’ll be able to go about your day-to-day life with very little discomfort or disruption without anyone being able to even notice you’re undergoing orthodontic treatment. 

‍

Many of our patients worry that clear aligners are not as effective as braces but we can confidently reassure you that they are! Invisalign can address crowded teeth, gaps, overbite, crossbite, and underbite in 9 to 18 months. We can apply attachments - tooth-colored composite ridges - to tackle more severe misalignments by precisely guiding the teeth into their optimal position.

Why Choose Clear Aligners?

• Virtually Invisible: Invisalign aligners are made from clear plastic material, which means they’re barely noticeable. Nobody needs to know you’re on your orthodontic journey - it can stay your little secret!
• Comfort: The aligners are smooth without sharp edges or metal wires that can cause discomfort or irritate the gums.
• Convenience: It’s easy to eat, brush, and floss - simply pop them out, rinse, and fit them back into place when you’re done. This makes for better oral hygiene than patients who get braces and creates very little disruption to your everyday life and routines.
• Customized Treatment: Each set of aligners is custom-made to fit your teeth and address your specific concerns to ensure effective treatment in the fastest time-frame possible.

Our Invisalign Process

Here’s what you can expect when you choose Sweet Tooth Family Dentistry as your Invisalign provider in Clovis, CA:

‍

• Consultation: Your first appointment with Dr. Nish or Dr. Mahek will give us an opportunity to assess your teeth and figure out whether Invisalign is the right choice for you. We will make sure there are no gum disease or cavities that need to be addressed before we begin your treatment.
• Custom Treatment Plan: We use advanced digital imaging technology to create a 3D model of your teeth. We’ll use this as a blueprint for your customized treatment plan that will give you a preview of the step-by-step transformation of your smile. We then send your impressions and treatment plan off to the lab for your custom trays to be created. 
• Receiving Your Aligners: When your aligners are ready, we’ll have you come back in to the office for a fitting and guide you on how to get the most out of your treatment. You will typically wear each set for about two weeks before moving on to the next in the series.
• Regular Check-ups: You'll have regular appointments with your Clovis dentist so we can monitor your progress and ensure everything is going according to plan.
