Invisalign

Among the many orthodontic treatments offered in our Port Orchard, WA family dental practice, Invisalign is one of the most highly requested. With Invisalign, clear plastic aligners are worn to straighten the teeth and improve bite problems, such as overbites and underbites. Invisalign braces are similar to traditional braces in straightening teeth, though they can be removed and are practically invisible to others.

The procedure for getting Invisalign starts with impressions of the teeth to make the first set of aligners. Dr. K. Singh instructs the patient to wear the aligners at all times, except when eating or brushing their teeth. A new set of aligners are made about every 2-4 weeks, which work just like tightening wires of traditional braces. Mild to moderate spacing, crowding and bite issues can be corrected with Invisalign.

If you want to have braces that are more comfortable and less conspicuous, consider getting Invisalign. To find out if this is a good option for you, visit our dental practice online at www.singhfamilydentalcare.com or call 516-233-2135 to discuss Invisalign and the many benefits.
