Invisalign
Clear Aligners
A discreet, digitally planned approach to a straighter smile.
A DIFFERENT WAY TO STRAIGHTEN
Orthodontics designed around everyday life.
Invisalign uses a sequence of clear, removable aligners to gradually guide teeth toward their planned positions. Treatment begins with an assessment of your teeth, bite and orthodontic needs, followed by digital planning specific to your smile.
For suitable patients, clear aligners provide an alternative to conventional fixed braces while allowing the aligners to be removed for eating, brushing and flossing.
01 / DISCREET
Clear by design.
The aligners are designed to be subtle when worn, making treatment less visually noticeable than conventional brackets and wires.
02 / REMOVABLE
Made for real life.
Aligners can be removed for meals and oral hygiene, helping patients maintain their normal brushing and flossing routine throughout treatment.
03 / DIGITAL
Planned with precision.
Digital scanning and treatment planning allow your dentist to evaluate tooth movement and create an individualized orthodontic plan.
YOUR INVISALIGN JOURNEY
From consultation to your new smile.
Every orthodontic plan is different. Your dentist will assess your bite, tooth position and treatment goals before recommending the approach best suited to you.
01
Consultation & assessment
We evaluate your teeth, bite and orthodontic goals to determine whether clear aligner treatment is appropriate.
02
Digital records & treatment planning
Digital records help create the treatment plan and map the intended movement of your teeth.
03
Your aligners
You progress through a prescribed series of aligners according to the instructions provided by your dental team.
04
Progress reviews & retention
Periodic visits allow us to monitor progress. After active treatment, retention helps maintain the achieved tooth positions.
DESIGNED TO FIT YOUR ROUTINE
Eat. Brush. Smile. Keep living.
Because clear aligners are removable, there are no permanent brackets covering the front surfaces of your teeth during treatment. They can be taken out as directed for eating and oral hygiene.
Successful treatment still depends on consistent wear and following your prescribed plan. Your dentist will explain how long to wear your aligners each day and how often to move to the next set.
IS INVISALIGN RIGHT FOR YOU?
Start with the bite, not just the appearance.
Clear aligners may be considered for a range of orthodontic concerns, but Invisalign is not automatically the best option for every bite or every patient.
Your consultation allows us to assess tooth position, jaw relationships, dental health and your goals before discussing the orthodontic options available to you.
Orthodontics for growing patients
Children and teens may have different orthodontic needs because their teeth and jaws are still developing. Ashraf Dentistry also provides other orthodontic approaches, including customized LightForce treatment and functional orthopedic guidance when appropriate.
THE FINISHING DETAILS
Straightening can be one part of the smile.
Some patients are happy once their orthodontic treatment is complete. Others choose to discuss whitening, bonding or other cosmetic treatments after tooth alignment has been finalized.
RETENTION MATTERS
Keeping your result.
Teeth can move after orthodontic treatment. A prescribed retention plan is an important part of maintaining the alignment achieved during treatment.
