Invisalign uses a series of clear aligners to progressively move your teeth into alignment—all without metal brackets or wires! Dr. Berg is an Invisalign Gold-Level Premier Preferred Provider, which means he has years of experience using Invisalign to create beautiful, lasting smiles.

Why choose Invisalign?

  • Aesthetic Advantages: Most people won’t even know you’re going through treatment, because Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible!
  • Oral Hygiene: In addition to the cosmetic benefits, Invisalign makes it much easier to keep your teeth clean than with traditional braces. Just remove your aligners to brush and floss, and pop them back in when you’re done!
  • No Food Restrictions: With traditional braces, you’ll need to avoid hard, sticky, and crunchy foods, but with Invisalign, you remove your aligners when you eat and drink!
  • Treatment Length: Treatment for Invisalign can vary from just a few months to a couple of years depending on the severity of the patients’ crooked teeth, but the more consistent you are with your aligners, the better results you will achieve. Patients who wear their aligners 22-23 hours per day usually achieve excellent results!
  • Office Visits: On average, you’ll only need to visit our Orem orthodontic office every three months so Dr. Berg can assess your progress.

Invisalign Basic Info

Invisalign is an orthodontic device that uses clear aligners to straighten your teeth.  They can fix many orthodontic issues, including overbites and crooked teeth, and are just as effective as standard braces. Here are some of the benefits of Invisalign braces:

  • Invisalign braces are clear, so no one will know you’re wearing them
  • Invisalign braces are removable, allowing for easier brushing and flossing
  • With Invisalign, you can eat anything you want
  • Invisalign lets you achieve a beautiful smile within about 12 to 18 months
  • You only have to visit your orthodontist every three months

Invisalign Teen Info

If your teen has misaligned teeth or another orthodontic issue, Invisalign braces may be the right solution. Once the treatment is done, your teen can feel proud of his or her new smile.

The first part of your teen’s treatment involves making impressions of his or her teeth. The orthodontist will then carefully design a treatment plan for your son or daughter. When your teen receives the Invisalign aligners, he or she will have to wear them at least 22 hours a day.

With Invisalign braces, your teen doesn’t have to worry about discomfort from rubbing brackets or getting food stuck in his or her mouth. Your teen can easily remove these aligners to brush and floss and eat.

Invisalign Costs

Invisalign can help you achieve a gorgeous smile, so it’s worth the investment. How much the treatment costs depends on multiple factors, such as the severity of your orthodontic issue and how long your treatment will last. Your dental insurance may cover the treatment, so check with your provider.

Most major credit cards are accepted and discounts are available if you pay in full by check or cash. You may also set up a payment arrangement based on your Flex Plan needs.

Invisalign FAQs

How will Invisalign affect my life?

One of the main advantages of Invisalign is how little effect it will have on your lifestyle. Since the aligners are removable, you don’t have to give up any of your favorite foods. If you want to eat steak and corn on the cob for dinner one night, go right ahead. Just remember to put your aligners back on after you’re finished eating.

If you have Invisalign braces, your oral hygiene routine will also be a breeze. You don’t have to worry about missing spots with your toothbrush or floss like you do with traditional metal braces.

How do you define the Invisalign system?

The Invisalign system refers to the invisible method to straighten your teeth and improve the look of your smile. The treatment utilizes 3D computer imaging technology to outline your entire treatment plan. A customized set of clear aligners are made to move your teeth gradually. Your orthodontist will have you wear each aligner for approximately two weeks before replacing them until your teeth reach their final position.

What are the positive aspects of Invisalign treatment?

Invisalign braces are clear, so they are much less noticeable than traditional braces. No one will know that you’re wearing braces unless you tell them. You can also remove these aligners, making eating and oral hygiene simple.

Invisalign braces are also more comfortable to wear because they don’t have metal brackets or wires to irritate your mouth. Additionally, you will have fewer orthodontic appointments, giving you more free time.

How many patients have Invisalign braces?

Currently, over 5,000,000 patients all over the world are using Invisalign braces to improve their smile.

Whether you have crooked teeth, an overbite, an underbite, or an open bite, Invisalign can be just as effective as traditional braces. Contact our Orem orthodontic office for a free consultation to see what the best option is for you!
