Orthodontic Treatment with Invisalign


Thanks to lab-crafted clear plastic aligners, patients can achieve straighter teeth in a streamlined, comfortable fashion. With Invisalign, there are no wires nor brackets to worry about. You are essentially wearing braces without anyone knowing. Our Invisalign provider in Cupertino recommends this treatment for patients wanting to take a sleeker approach to teeth alignment.


How Does Treatment Work?

After your initial consultation appointment, once your need and treatment is discussed in details, digital impression will be made with an intra-oral scanner. The digital image of your teeth will be sent to Invisalign lab, in the same day. Usually aligners are made and shipped to our office within two weeks.

Aligners will be gradually moving your teeth to ideal alignment, each set of aligners needs to worn for two weeks. They are removable, comfortable, and easy to clean. You will wear them throughout the day and night, except when eating.


Is Treatment Worth It?

Patient feedback from Invisalign has been overwhelmingly positive. Many people find these braces easy to incorporate into their daily activities. With Invisalign, maintaining oral hygiene is easy too. In the mornings, simply remove your aligners to brush your teeth, then pop them back in, and you are ready to head out the door! If you would like to find out if you are a candidate for Invisalign, schedule a complimentary consultation with our Invisalign-provider orthodontist in Cupertino, Dr. Setareh Mozafari.
