Why Patients Choose Invisalign Clear Aligners
Many patients searching for an alternative to traditional braces choose Invisalign because the aligners are virtually invisible, comfortable and removable. Invisalign allows you to straighten your teeth without the appearance of metal brackets and wires, making it a popular option for professionals, students and adults who want a more discreet orthodontic treatment.
Invisalign can address a variety of common orthodontic concerns, including:
- Crooked or crowded teeth
- Spaces and gaps between teeth
- Mild to moderate overbites, underbites and crossbites
- Teeth that have shifted after previous orthodontic treatment
- Smile alignment concerns affecting confidence
Properly aligned teeth are often easier to clean, which can help reduce the risk of tooth decay and gum disease while supporting long-term oral health.
If you are interested in improving both the appearance and health of your smile, Invisalign treatment may be an excellent option.
Am I a Candidate for Invisalign?
Many teens and adults are good candidates for Invisalign treatment. During your consultation, Dr. Benjamin Sharfae, DDS, or Dr. Maggie Sharfae, DDS, will evaluate your teeth, bite and overall oral health to determine whether clear aligners are appropriate for your needs.
You may be a candidate for Invisalign if you have:
- Mild to moderate crowding
- Gaps between teeth
- Certain bite alignment issues
- Relapsed orthodontic treatment
- A desire for a discreet alternative to braces
For some patients with more complex orthodontic concerns, other treatment options may be recommended. We will discuss all available options and help you make an informed decision.
How Invisalign Treatment Works
Invisalign treatment uses a series of custom aligners designed specifically for your smile. Each aligner gently moves your teeth closer to their planned positions.
Your Invisalign journey typically includes:
- A comprehensive consultation and examination
- Digital treatment planning and smile evaluation
- Custom fabrication of your aligners
- Wearing each aligner set according to your treatment plan
- Periodic progress visits to monitor tooth movement
Because Invisalign aligners are removable, you can continue enjoying your favorite foods and maintain your normal brushing and flossing routine throughout treatment.
Our team will provide clear instructions and ongoing support to help ensure your treatment stays on track.

What to Expect During Invisalign Treatment
Our goal is to make your Invisalign experience as comfortable and predictable as possible. Treatment begins with understanding your smile goals and developing a customized treatment plan.
