Invisalign® Clear Aligners

You've considered straightening your teeth for years, but the idea of metal braces has always stopped you. Maybe you're worried about how they would look, or you can't imagine giving up your favorite foods for years of treatment.

With Invisalign® clear aligners, you get the best of both worlds: The orthodontic treatment you need and a discreet, convenient solution that fits seamlessly into your adult lifestyle.

At Rehoboth Beach Dental, we're pleased to offer Invisalign treatment to help you achieve a straighter smile without the appearance of metal braces.

How Invisalign in Rehoboth Works

Invisalign involves wearing custom-made, clear plastic aligners that blend with your smile and gradually shift your teeth into their ideal positions. You wear each set of aligners for one to two weeks before moving to the next set in your series.

Because the aligners are virtually invisible, most people won't notice you're straightening your teeth. Simply put them in each morning and go about your day with confidence.

Invisalign treats many common orthodontic concerns that affect appearance and oral health:

• Crowded or overlapping teeth
• Gaps and spacing between teeth
• Overbites and underbites
• Crossbites
• Open bites
• General teeth misalignment

During your consultation, our dentists evaluate whether Invisalign is the right solution for your specific needs.

What to Expect with Invisalign Treatment

Invisalign treatment in Rehoboth Beach, DE, involves the following steps:

• Evaluation and Planning — The process begins with a thorough assessment and impressions of your teeth. Using advanced technology, our dentists map out how your teeth will move through each stage. As part of the planning process, you’ll get to see a preview of your newly-straightened smile before you start treatment.
• Wearing Your Aligners — You'll receive your custom aligner sets along with detailed instructions. You'll wear each set for 20–22 hours daily and remove them only for eating, drinking anything besides water, and brushing your teeth.
• Check-In Appointments — Every 6–8 weeks, you'll check in with us to monitor your progress and receive your next set of aligners.

Treatment is finished when you wear your last set of aligners. Many patients achieve desired results in 12–18 months, but your timeline depends on how much tooth movement is required.
