For those seeking a solution that allows them to straighten crooked teeth without traditional metal braces, you may want to consider Invisalign. Invisalign consists of clear, removable aligners that gradually straighten crooked and misaligned teeth. Invisalign is ideal for teen and adult patients with mild to moderate orthodontic concerns. Invisalign can be used to treat a range of cosmetic alignment and spacing issues while improving your oral health.
