Invisalign (invisible orthodontics) is the clear way to straighten teeth without braces. Invisalign uses a series of transparent, removable aligners to gradually straighten teeth, without metal or wires.
Dr. Fallah uses 3-D computer imaging technology to depict the complete treatment plan from the initial position to the final desired position from which a series of custom-made, clear "aligners" are produced. Each "aligner" moves teeth incrementally and is worn for about two weeks, then replaced by the next in the series until the final position is achieved.
Advantages of Invisalign:
Invisalign is plastic, clear, nearly invisible.
You can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing.
Invisalign is removable.
Unlike braces at the orthodontist, you can eat and drink what you want during treatment. You can also brush and floss normally to maintain good oral hygiene.
Invisalign is comfortable.
There are no metal brackets or wires as with braces to cause mouth irritation, and no metal or wires means you spend less time in the doctor's chair getting adjustments.
Invisalign allows you to view your own virtual treatment plan before you start
so you can see how your straight teeth will look when your treatment is complete.
Aligners are made of clear, strong medical grade plastic that is virtually invisible when worn.
Aligners look similar to tooth-whitening trays, but are custom-made for a better fit to move teeth. Some orthodontists and dentists have referred to them as "contact lenses for teeth."
The new Invisalign Teen system is now available from Dr. Fallah - your San Diego Invisalign cosmetic dentist.
A whole lot of reasons to say cheese! Invisalign is a FDA-cleared orthodontic treatment - chosen by nearly one million patients worldwide.
