What is the Invisalign system?
The Invisalign system is a virtually invisible approach to achieving your desired smile. It utilizes advanced 3D computer imaging technology to create a personalized treatment plan. Custom-made clear aligners are then created for your teeth, gradually moving them into their desired position. Each aligner is worn for about two weeks before transitioning to the next in the series until your teeth reach their final position.
The duration of your Invisalign treatment will depend on your specific needs, as determined by Dr. Harmon.
