How does Invisalign work?
Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners that apply constant but gentle pressure on your teeth. Over time, Invisalign aligners move your tooth incrementally, and your smile will be perfectly aligned before you know it. Dr. Tejumade St. Matthew-Daniel often uses Invisalign to correct overcrowding, spacing, and bite issues such as overbites, underbites, and crossbites.
Invisalign treatment starts with a conversation to understand what you like and dislike about your smile. We’ll also discuss your treatment goals before creating your personalized treatment plan.
Once we understand the basics, creating your treatment becomes simpler. We’ll digitally scan your teeth and simulate your treatment with advanced Invisalign software. With this technology, we’ll predict when and how your teeth will move until you complete treatment.
Invisalign treatment uses a series of aligners to perfect your smile. Each aligner is worn every two weeks before you move to the next in line. Unlike metal braces, Invisalign doesn’t affect your everyday life. You can remove the aligners when eating or cleaning teeth, provided you wear them for a minimum of 20-22 hours daily.
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
Your treatment period depends on your compliance with wearing aligners and the severity of your case. On average, Invisalign needs 9-18 months, but the treatment will take longer if you fail to wear your aligners as directed.
Since Invisalign trays are removable, some patients believe they can take them out whenever they want. Unfortunately, this will dramatically lengthen your treatment, even for minor cases. If you want to harness the power of your aligners, wear them as directed by your dentist (20-22 hours daily), and you’ll start seeing results as early as a few weeks into treatment.
How much does Invisalign cost?
Your treatment cost is determined by the duration and complexity of your treatment. Typically, Invisalign costs between $3,500-$5,000 but treatment can go as high as $7,000. Given the high cost of Invisalign, you might question if you can achieve your ideal smile without draining your savings. Good news! Most insurance providers cover part of the Invisalign cost. However, if your insurance doesn’t cover Invisalign or the coverage is insufficient, speak to us about our flexible payment plans.

Does Invisalign cause pain?
Invisalign may cause mild discomfort in the initial days as it gradually shifts your teeth. Any pain you experience with Invisalign is temporary and dissipates after about a week. After the adjustment period, Invisalign is essentially a comfortable treatment. The aligners are custom-designed and created from smooth, flexible material that’s gentle on your cheeks and gums—there are no sharp edges to irritate your soft tissues.
Does Invisalign affect my lifestyle?
No! Invisalign treatment is designed to fit seamlessly into your everyday life. Since it’s removable, you’ll eat and clean your teeth with minimal interruptions. Have a corporate dinner or business meeting to attend? No problem! You can simply remove the aligners before your big moment and express the best version of yourself without restrictions.
