When people smile and reveal a mouth full of straight teeth, rarely is it natural. Uneven teeth and poor oral health habits can cause crooked teeth, but they don’t have to affect your smile or confidence. Invisalign clear aligners from Big Smile Dental can help you have a perfect smile without the unappealing brackets and wires of traditional orthodontics.
Invisalign is a fairly recent, innovative alternative to straighten teeth that are growing or are set incorrectly and move them into the proper position. Instead of metal or ceramic brackets bonded or cemented to the teeth like traditional braces, it uses a series of removable clear aligners manufactured from a thin thermoplastic material called SmartTrack. These plastic aligners (also called trays) fit snugly over your teeth, making them virtually invisible. These plastic aligners are FDA-approved with no BPA, BPS, latex, or gluten.
What Can Invisalign Fix?
Invisalign can correct a wide range of orthodontic issues, including:

Although Invisalign can fix several types of malocclusions, it may not be right for everyone. Thus, you may want to talk to a dental professional to determine if the aligner treatment is right for you. At Big Smile Dental, we are happy to schedule a consultation so that our dentists can carefully review your diagnosis and recommend suitable treatment options.

What are Invisalign Braces
The Invisalign Process Explained
Big Smile Dental follows a multi-step process to ensure your veneers or Lumineers fit right, perform optimally, and create the smile you’ve always wanted.
Like any orthodontic treatment, the Invisalign treatment begins with an initial consultation that evaluates your smile and overall oral health to ensure aligners are the best treatment option for you. Then, x-rays, bite impressions, and records are taken to develop an appropriate treatment plan and customize your aligners.
As part of the treatment process, a digital plan that maps out the exact movements of your teeth is created. The Invisalign clear aligners are then designed to apply the right amount of force to a specific place throughout treatment. Each set of Invisalign trays is typically worn for three weeks, with every set slightly different than the one before. The entire treatment process usually takes about one year, depending on your specific condition and treatment requirements. Your aligners can be removed for brushing, flossing, eating, and drinking during that period.
