Invisalign

Do you want straight teeth, but hate the idea of traditional metal braces gleaming instead of your smile? At Old Town Smiles, Dr. Kitchen and Dr. Harris can offer you an alternative with Invisalign clear braces. Approved by the FDA, Invisalign involves a custom-designed set of clear, removable aligners that will gradually reposition your teeth.

Using 3D imaging software, your dentist will design a treatment plan and send the information to an Invisalign lab, where your custom aligners will be created. Every two weeks, you will switch out aligners without having to visit us at the office. Typically, we would like to see you every six weeks to check your progress. With Invisalign, you have the option of removing your braces for special occasions or photos. Unlike metal braces, Invisalign will not scratch or cut your mouth.

Benefits of Invisalign Braces:

  • Transparent
  • No tightening
  • Fewer orthodontic checkups
  • Removable
  • No mouth abrasions from metal appliances
