The latest technology makes it possible
Upon an initial examination, Dr. Weiser will decide if Invisalign is right for you. He will write a treatment plan and take an impression of your teeth. These are then submitted to Invisalign. Using the latest advances in 3-D computer technology, Invisalign carefully translates your doctor's instructions into a series of precisely customized aligners. You then wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, moving your teeth, gradually week by week, millimeter by millimeter until you've achieved the intended result: straighter teeth. Generally, you visit Dr. Weiser no more than you would with traditional metal braces and the length of treatment is about the same.

No braces. Because nothing should hold you back.
Because there are no metal wires and brackets, Invisalign is comfortable. And because it is removable, eating, brushing and flossing are no problem. You can still enjoy your favorite foods and smile without holding back. With Invisalign, there's nothing to hide.
Frequently Asked Questions and Answers
Is Invisalign effective?
Thousands of doctors are treating patients with Invisalign. It works for a wide range of patients whose teeth are too crowded or have spaces between them, as well as for those whose teeth may have shifted after having worn braces in their youth.
How often will I have to wear my Aligners?
Invisalign only works while you're wearing the Aligners. It's recommended that you wear your Aligners full-time, day and night, except to eat, brush and floss your teeth or as directed by Dr. Weiser.
How long does Invisalign take?
The duration of treatment depends on the severity of your case, which determines the number of Aligners you need. The average is about 12 months, but only your doctor determines the length of your treatment.
How much does Invisalign cost?
As with traditional braces, the cost will be based on the complexity of your case and the length of treatment. If your dental insurance plan covers traditional braces, it will typically cover Invisalign to the same extent.
