Get Your Teeth in Line With Invisalign in Sioux Falls

Straight, beautiful teeth are a huge confidence boost, and you deserve the perfect smile. Even so, you may be reluctant to begin any corrective treatment if it involves wearing brackets and wires on your teeth for years. Invisalign in Sioux Falls, SD, is different from the traditional metal orthodontics you're used to seeing. You will love:

  • Discreet Care - Your aligners seem to disappear when you put them on.
  • Convenient to Use - Aligners are removable, which means your life doesn't have to be upended.
  • Greater Comfort - Aligners are smooth, which makes them much less likely to irritate your mouth.
  • Shorter Treatment - Invisalign can often work in about 12-18 months.
  • Fewer Dental Appointments - As long as you wear your aligners as directed, you will only visit us every couple of months.

Put Dental Technology to Good Use for Your Smile

When you come to our office, we can use 3-D imaging, digital X-rays, and intraoral cameras to assess your oral situation. Most people who are interested in orthodontic care can use Invisalign clear aligners to achieve their smile goals. It's especially great for adults who had braces when they were younger but have seen their teeth slowly slip back into misalignment. After taking images, we can even show you what your smile will look like once treatment is complete.

If Invisalign is a good option for you, we will follow a few steps.

First, we will make digital impressions of your teeth, which means no biting down on a tray filled with goop.

Second, those impressions will be used to create a digital, 3-D model of your teeth. The model will be used to create a custom set of aligners at the Invisalign lab.

Finally, your aligners are ready. We will give you guidelines so you know when to switch from one aligner to the next one in your series. You'll change aligners every 10-14 days, and you'll visit our office every six-eight weeks so we can check your progress.

Make Aligners Part of Total Smile Transformation

Straightening your teeth will improve the appearance of your smile. However, you may want to make orthodontic care just one part of your smile makeover.

After you are done with your aligners, you may want to consider these cosmetic services:

  • Dental Veneers - Conceal chips, cracks, and discolored teeth with one or more veneers.
  • Teeth Whitening - Make your straight smile shine by getting rid of stubborn stains with professional whitening.
  • Dental Bonding - Bonding can be a cost-effective way to repair minor problems with teeth.
  • Gum Reshaping - Make your teeth more visible by removing excess periodontal tissue.

Frequently Asked Questions About Invisalign

Is Invisalign visible?

Teens and adults often prefer Invisalign to traditional metal braces because the aligners are clear and nearly impossible to see. People may not even notice you're wearing them unless you point them out, so you'll feel much more confident about their appearance while at school and in social or professional settings. You can also remove your aligners for a short time for photos or special events.

Who does Invisalign not work for?

Invisalign can address many of the same issues as conventional braces. However, not everyone is a candidate for clear aligners treatment, if the severity of the problem requires a more involved solution. That said, you will never know the best way forward until you schedule a consultation appointment with us.

Is Invisalign worth it?

Our patients think so! We've treated many patients who have been unhappy with their smiles for years because of gaps, crooked teeth, and other orthodontic issues. Orthodontic treatment not only improves the appearance of your smile, it often improves its function too by moving teeth into proper alignment. Misaligned teeth can contribute to health problems such as TMJ disorders.
