INVISALIGN – FONTAINEBLEAU, FL
STRAIGHTER TEETH WITHOUT BRACES
Invisalign uses a series of removable, invisible, and comfortable aligners that no one can tell you’re wearing. So, you can smile more during treatment as well as after. Invisalign is made with 3D computer imaging technology and has been proven effective by many cosmetic dentistry patients who have success stories. More than 70% of orthodontists or even general dentists in the US and Canada are certified to treat with Invisalign. Dental Specialists Group of Fontainebleau dental care providers are certified to offer Invisalign in Fontainebleau, FL.
Advantages of Invisalign
- Invisalign is clear. You can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing.
- Invisalign is comfortable. There are no metal brackets or wires as with braces to cause mouth irritation, and no metal or wires means you spend less time in the doctor’s chair getting adjustments.
- Invisalign allows you to view your own virtual treatment plan before you start—so you can see how your straight teeth will look when your treatment is complete.
The best part out of Invisalign is that, not only are the aligners invisible, they are removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment. Plus, brushing and flossing are no problem. They are also more comfortable than using traditional braces and no metal and wires usually mean you spend less time in your dental office getting adjustments.

Explanation of How Invisalign Works:
Invisalign uses 3-D computer imaging technology to depict the complete treatment plan from the initial position to the final desired position from which a series of custom-made, clear “aligners” are produced. Each “aligner” moves teeth incrementally and is worn for about two weeks, then replaced by the next in the series until the final position is achieved.
Aligners Material
Aligners are made of clear, strong medical-grade plastic that is virtually invisible when worn. Aligners are clear and look similar to tooth-whitening trays, but are custom-made for a better fit to move teeth. Some orthodontists and dentists have referred to them as “contact lenses for teeth.”
Explanation of Invisalign Treatment
Most people experience temporary discomfort for a few days at the beginning of each new stage of treatment. This is normal and is typically described as a feeling of pressure. It is a sign that Invisalign® is working—sequentially moving your teeth to their final destination. This discomfort typically goes away a couple of days after you insert the new aligner in the series.
Are there restrictions on what I can eat while in treatment?
No. Unlike traditional wires and brackets, you can eat whatever you desire while in treatment because you remove your aligners to eat and drink. Thus, there is no need to restrict your consumption of any of your favorite foods and snacks. Also, it is important that you brush your teeth after each meal and prior to re-inserting your aligners to maintain proper hygiene.
