Do you want a beautiful smile without the hassle of traditional braces? Invisalign® is an alternative treatment to traditional metal braces by using clear, removable aligners.

Invisalign® is custom-made from plastic and is created and fitted specifically for your smile appearing virtually invisible to others. In addition to being more comfortable than traditional braces, Invisalign® aligner trays are also smooth, easy to wear and removable.

Invisalign® shifts your teeth slightly, moving them horizontally and vertically and even rotating them when needed. Invisalign® was engineered to use the right amount of force in the right place at the right time.

In addition to the cosmetic benefits, Invisalign® is also very easy to care for by simply removing the aligners and then brushing, rinsing, and drying them. This leaves your typical daily home oral hygiene routines unchanged as you’ll be able to brush and floss normally.

1st Choice Dental uses Invisalign® to treat some of the following dental issues:

• Overlapping teeth
• Crowded teeth
• Gapped teeth
• Overbites
• Underbites
• Crossbites and Open Bites

​Invisalign® treatment typically consists of wearing the aligners for an average of 20 hours per day. Even though you will be able to remove the aligners because there are no brackets or wires, over this time your teeth will gradually shift into place just as they would with traditional metal braces. New aligners are created approximately every two weeks and are worn in order to gradually shift your teeth into their proper and desired places.

At 1st Choice Dental, patients in and around the Chicagoland area can work with the area’s leading Invisalign® specialists.
