Invisalign® Treatment - A Clear Alternative

Many of our patients want to straighten their teeth but don’t want the hassle of wearing metal wires and brackets. At Greenhill Family Dental Care, we are proud to offer patients in Gainesville, Haymarket, and throughout Northern Virginia Invisalign® clear braces for a comfortable, convenient, and nearly invisible way to straighten their teeth. 

How Invisalign® Works

The Invisalign® system uses a series of clear plastic aligners, also referred to as clear braces, which fit snugly over the teeth like a mouth guard. Each patient receives a series of aligners, custom-made by the Invisalign® company, which are designed to gradually move the teeth into their proper position. The Invisalign® aligners are worn at all times, but, unlike traditional braces, they may be removed to eat, drink, brush, and floss.

You will first visit our practice in Gainesville for an Invisalign® consultation to find out whether clear braces are the right choice for you. If you are a good candidate for Invisalign®, you will return to our office so that we can make impressions of your mouth. We will send the impressions to Invisalign® so that your aligners can be fabricated. You will return to our practice once your Invisalign® aligners are ready so that we can give you detailed instructions on how to use the system.

You will wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, discard them, and replace them with the next set in the series. Over time, your teeth will gradually move into position until they are aligned. For most people, treatment is completed in six months to a year. During your treatment with Invisalign®, you will return to our practice periodically so that we can ensure that your treatment is on track.
