Invisalign

Today there is “clear” choice for a beautiful smile. The Bristol Dental & Orthodontics team can have you on your way to a straighter and more attractive smile quickly with Invisalign®, and you won’t hate how you look during the treatment.

This innovative approach to orthodontics uses custom-fit aligning trays to gently shift your teeth using low pressure. The trays are clear, comfortable, and stay securely in place.

Consider these benefits of Invisalign®:

• Invisalign® is barely detectable. No mouthful of metal.
• You’ll be able to speak clearly and not worry about accidental spitting.
• You can keep teeth sparkling clean and your mouth healthy! The aligners can be removed to brush and floss, and for regular dental cleanings.
• No food restrictions. Take Invisalign® out to eat whatever you like.
• No mouth irritation from brackets and wires.

Invisalign® is best for teen and adult mouths, with crowding, misaligned teeth or bite problems. If this system is right for you, we can have you in Invisalign® in about two weeks.

You’ll have a complete dental examination and cleaning to be sure your gums are healthy and to address any existing tooth problems or cavities.

We’ll take x-rays and make impressions of your teeth. Those impressions go to a lab where a series of aligning trays are produced specifically for you.

At your first fitting, you’ll receive instruction on using your trays. And we’ll be sure you understand the importance of good home oral hygiene, especially while straightening your teeth. We’ll also talk about patient compliance – how critical it is to wear the aligners without “cheating” to get results as quickly as possible.

We’ll see you every two weeks to fit you with a new set of trays. During those visits, you’ll view 3D images of your mouth with the state-of-the-art computer program.

Together, we’ll track your progress to that beautiful smile you’ve always wanted.
