Invisalign Clear Braces in Hillsborough, New Jersey

Straighten Smiles Seamlessly with Invisalign from Dubitsky Family Dental

Straight and properly aligned teeth are important to a properly functioning, healthy and good looking smile. Did you know that there’s an alternative to traditional braces that offers the same beautiful results with greater comfort and a more natural look? With Invisalign clear braces from Dubitsky Family Dental, you can do a great thing for your oral health while also doing the right thing for your appearance.

You can see the difference when you look at Invisalign clear aligners. Traditional braces consist of metal brackets bonded to the front of your teeth so as to hold a wire in place. The wire is then adjusted every few weeks to create the desired changes in your smile. Invisalign, however, is made of smooth plastic instead of metal, and the aligners are removable rather than bonded to the teeth. These differences give Invisalign clear braces several advantages over traditional braces. These benefits include:

Increased comfort
Clear aligners for nearly invisible treatment
Versatility
Convenience

People often think that Invisalign’s advantage is that the aligners are clear, offering patients unnoticeable orthodontic treatment that won’t leave them embarrassed during the transformation process. However, this is just one reason to consider Invisalign clear braces. The clear plastic aligners are also smooth, which means that they don’t irritate the soft tissues of your mouth the way that metal braces can. You won’t have to worry about broken braces wires or damaged brackets, which can cause oral injury and require an extra trip to the dental office. And because they are removable, you’ll be able to brush and floss your teeth with your normal routine to keep your teeth and gums healthy. Many patients appreciate the convenience of Invisalign too, which requires fewer check-ins at our Hillsborough office.

The Invisalign Process

After a thorough conversation and consultation to determine if your problems can be addressed with Invisalign, our team will take X-rays, photos and impressions to be used by the Invisalign lab to create a 3D image of your smile. Dr. Dubitsky-Timchak will then use this image to design your treatment plan. Once the treatment plan is complete, a series of clear aligners are custom created for you. You then wear the first aligner for a few weeks before switching to the next in the series. Each aligner is slightly different from the last, gradually changing your smile over time. The plastic used to create the aligners is BPA free too, so you don’t have to worry about your exposure to this harmful chemical.
