Invisalign Orthodontic Treatment

If you desire a straighter smile, Invisalign makes it easy. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign uses a series of clear aligners that are not only smooth and comfortable to wear, but also removable. This allows patients to live their life the way they want to, without worrying about metal brackets, wire tightening, or brushing and flossing in between braces. At Advantage Dentistry, we are excited to offer Invisalign to patients.


After our doctors map out your treatment plan, your aligners will be created in the Invisalign lab. Once they return to the office, the aligners will fit comfortably on your teeth. Each aligner is designed to shift certain teeth at a time, moving them horizontally and vertically, and even rotating them when needed. You’ll need to wear the aligners for at least 22 hours a day for two weeks to maximize their potential to get the desired results. Treatment time depends on the individual case, but once your treatment is over, our doctors will discuss retainer options.

Advantages of Invisalign

Most of us desire a straighter smile, but sometimes we don’t have time to abide by the aesthetic disadvantages that come with traditional braces. Fortunately, for adults and teenagers, our doctors at Advantage Dentistry provide patients with Invisalign so you can straighten your smile without worrying about your appearance. Invisalign consists of plastic aligner trays that are removable and virtually invisible so that you can eat, brush, and floss as you normally would.


After our doctors map out your Invisalign treatment plan, you will be giving a set of aligners. As you wear each set of aligners for the recommended 20-22 hours a day, your teeth will gently and gradually begin to shift into place. During this time, because the trays are removable, you don’t have as many dietary restrictions as you would with traditional braces, therefore you can eat whatever you’d like, whenever you’d like. Additionally, you can continue to brush and floss as you normally would, because there are no arches or wires that you need to maneuver around.


If you have questions or concerns regarding Invisalign, please give us a call. To schedule your appointment with Advantage Dentistry in Kenmore, NY, call our office at 716-877-2275 or visit our website www.advantagedentistry.com for more information about the services we provide.

How Invisalign Works to Move Teeth

If you want a straighter smile and healthier teeth and gums, orthodontic treatment may help. Orthodontic treatment involves correcting malocclusion, which is the misalignment of a bite or incorrect spacing between teeth. Here at Advantage Dentistry, we offer Invisalign to our patients so that they can straighten their teeth with comfort and confidence. Invisalign uses a custom-made series of plastic aligners created for you and only you. So how do these plastic aligners actually move your teeth?


The teeth-straightening process will vary from person to person, but the basic idea stays the same. First, one of our doctors will take X-rays, pictures, and impressions of your teeth, and then use that information to create a treatment plan. Through the use of Invisalign’s patented thermoplastic design, Invisalign aligners move your teeth through the appropriate placement of controlled force. The biggest difference is that the aligners not only control the force, but also the timing of the force application. During each stage, only certain teeth are allowed to move. Invisalign allows our patients to straighten their teeth without the stress of tightening brackets and wires. Give us a call if you want to get started, today.

Invisalign at Advantage Dentistry

At Advantage Dentistry we offer our patients Invisalign so that they can straighten their smile invisibly. With Invisalign treatment, metal mouth is a thing of the past, using a custom-made series of aligners created for you and only you. These aligner trays are made of smooth, comfortable and virtually invisible plastic that you wear over your teeth. Wearing the aligners will gently shift your teeth into place, based on the exact movements our dentists plan out for you.


A typical Invisalign treatment requires 20 to 30 aligners for both the upper and lower teeth. Most patients complete their treatment in less than one year. However, treatment depends on the specific alignment problem. For mild cases of crooked teeth and protruding teeth, to much more difficult dental problems involving serious malocclusion, overbite, or underbite, Invisalign effectively corrects a wide variety of dental problems. Whether your teeth are widely gapped, overly crowded or somewhere in between, Invisalign has an affordable teeth straightening option for you.
