What is Invisalign®?

Invisalign® is a new     way to straighten teeth... invisibly.

Using a series of clear removable aligners (pictured above) the teeth are repositioned without metal wires or brackets.

Invisalign® has been proven effective in clinical research and in orthdontic practices nationwide.

In fact, over 70% of all U.S. orthodontists are certified to treat patients with Invisalign®.

 

How Does Invisalign® Work?

• You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
  
• As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move - little by little, week by week - until they have straightened to the final position as prescribed.
  
• You'll visit Dr. Gussow about once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.
  
• Total treatment time averages 9-15 months and the average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but both will vary from case to case.

We both are!
