Do you have teeth alignment problems and would like to fix them? Are you considering different treatment options and trying to decide which one would fit your needs best?
Orthodontic treatment will help you correct your teeth alignment, and allow you to enjoy a healthy and beautiful smile. Invisalign is one type of treatment that can help align your teeth, restore your smile, and improve your oral health.
Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that straightens your teeth and helps you correct bite and alignment problems. It uses transparent trays that are custom-made to fit your teeth. These trays put the needed pressure to bring your teeth to their optimal position.
The trays are changed periodically to match your teeth's progress throughout the entire orthodontic treatment.
Clear Invisalign braces can be removed for eating and cleaning your teeth, but you will need to wear them between 20 to 22 hours every day. The duration of the treatment depends on each person's needs, among other factors.

During your assessment visit with the orthodontist, you will receive a diagnosis and treatment plan, and you will learn if Invisalign is suited for your situation.
The severity of the crossbite will also determine how long the treatment will take to bring your teeth to the correct alignment.
Minor crossbite cases can be solved within a few months, but a more severe crossbite can take up to 18 months to get corrected.
Most people prefer Invisalign treatment because they want to avoid wearing metal braces. But Invisalign can offer other benefits too, aside from being practically invisible:
