APPOINTMENTSInvisalign in Weddington Near Waxhaw, NC
Comfortable and Convenient Teeth Straightening
Everyone wants straight teeth, but no one likes to have their food choices restricted. Having to deal with the pain and discomfort of metal brackets and wires is also less than ideal.
Traditional braces are not only inconvenient, but using them may eventually lead to stains on your teeth. The brackets and wires can make your brushing routine more difficult and, thus, may cause oral health issues down the road.
That’s why we’re proud to provide our patients with Invisalign in Weddington near Waxhaw, NC. This alternative (but equally effective) teeth straightening solution is more comfortable and less noticeable compared to traditional braces. Because the clear aligner trays are removable, you can also brush your teeth and eat your favorite foods with ease.

- Gentle and effective teeth straightening for conditions like:
- Crowding
- Deep Bites
- Anterior Crossbites
- Open Bites
- Narrow Arches
- Spacing Issues
- A variety of options to customize and choose from
- Clear aligner trays that don’t stand out
- Removability and ease of use
- Less time visiting the dentist
How Teeth Straightening With Clear Braces Works
Invisalign applies gentle pressure to your teeth to move them into the proper position until they are aligned. Before you receive your individualized aligner trays, however, your dentist will meet with you to examine your mouth and explain the process to you.
If your dentist determines that Invisalign is the right choice for you–and you know whether you will pay out of pocket or use your dental insurance to cover it–your dentist will create your Invisalign plan. Afterwards, they will use dental technology to help them craft your clear aligner trays based on your needs.
At our Waxhaw dental office, we use:
- iTero occlusogram: This type of dental technology allows Dr. Tran to gauge your bite force and figure out how to best align your teeth.
- Invisalign Smile View: This is a type of align technology that helps Dr. Tran determine how your smile will look after Invisalign.
Once you have been evaluated and your trays have been planned out, your dentist will help you understand the timeline, price, and specifications you can expect. After you’ve chosen what you want, your dentist will then create the clear aligner trays based on the previous examinations and prescribe them to you.
After you’ve been using Invisalign for a set amount of time, you will be asked to come in for dental checkups to ensure your teeth are moving into place properly. After you’ve completed the treatment, your dentist may also prescribe you with Vivera Retainers to make sure your teeth stay straight in the far future.
How Long Does Invisalign Take to Straighten Teeth?
There are many reasons why Invisalign treatment time frames vary. Everyone is unique, and those with more severely crooked teeth may need to use Invisalign longer to complete their treatment.
In general, though, the majority of mild cases can be finished within a year. Your dentist will advise you on the treatment time frame you can expect before you are given your clear aligner trays.
