Dr. McFarland recommends Invisalign in many cases for beautiful, straight teeth that you've always wanted — without braces. A complimentary consultation with Dr. McFarland can determine if Invisalign is right for you. In the meantime, here is some helpful information about Invisalign so you can familiarize yourself with the process.

WHAT IS INVISALIGN?

Invisalign uses a series of invisible, removable, and comfortable aligners that no one can tell you're wearing. So, you can smile more during treatment as well as after. Invisalign is made with 3-D computer imaging technology and has been proven effective.

WHY WOULD I WANT IT?

Not only are the aligners invisible, they are removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment. Plus, brushing and flossing are no problem. They are also comfortable, with no metal to cause mouth abrasions during treatment.

Invisalign also allows you to view your own virtual treatment plan when you start so you can see how your straight teeth will look when your treatment no complete.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move — little by little, week by week — until they have straightened to the final position Dr. McFarland has prescribed. You'll visit Dr. McFarland about once every 8-10 weeks to ensure that your treatment no progressing as planned.

Total treatment time averages 9-15 months and the average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but both will vary from case to case.
