Invisalign Near You for Straighter Teeth Without Traditional Braces

Want to improve the alignment of your teeth without making brackets and wires the centerpiece of your smile? Progressive Dental Arts offers Invisalign clear aligner treatment for appropriate patients who want a more discreet way to address certain alignment concerns. Serving Newark, Christiana, and Pike Creek, DE, treatment is planned around your teeth, bite, and the amount of movement needed to reach the desired position.

How Invisalign Works

Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, removable clear aligners to gradually move teeth. Each set is designed to apply controlled pressure to specific teeth, with the sequence progressing toward the planned alignment.

Before treatment begins, your teeth and bite are evaluated to determine whether clear aligners can address your particular concerns. Invisalign may be used for certain cases involving crowding, spacing, crooked teeth, and bite irregularities. More complex cases may require another orthodontic approach.

The aligners are designed to be worn for most of the day and removed for eating, drinking certain beverages, brushing, and flossing. As treatment progresses, you move through successive sets of aligners according to the treatment plan.

Your treatment timeline depends on factors such as the amount of movement required, your individual response to treatment, and how consistently the aligners are worn. Regular follow-up appointments allow your dental team to monitor progress and make sure treatment is moving as planned.

Why Choose Invisalign Aligners?

Traditional braces can be highly effective, but they aren't the only way to move teeth. For patients who are candidates for clear aligner treatment, Invisalign offers a removable alternative that can be less noticeable during everyday activities.

Being able to remove the aligners for meals and oral hygiene can also make maintaining your usual brushing and flossing routine more straightforward. However, Invisalign requires consistent wear to keep treatment progressing as planned.

Dr. Rodney Kryzhanovskiy, D.M.D. and Dr. Lavinia Wu, D.M.D. can evaluate your teeth and bite and determine whether Invisalign is an appropriate option for your alignment goals.
