Since its introduction, Invisalign has helped millions of adults and teens with crowding, overbite, underbite, gaps in teeth, open bite, or crossbite improve their smile alignment, function, aesthetics, and confidence.

Malocclusion Impacts More than Smile Beauty
Depending on the type of malocclusion, your symptoms may be mild, moderate, or severe. Common symptoms include discomfort when biting or chewing food, speech problems (e.g., a lisp), difficulty breathing through the mouth, frequently biting the tongue or cheeks, tooth clenching (bruxism), and changes to facial structure. Some types of misalignment make it harder to follow proper oral hygiene, leading to chronic bad breath, decay, periodontal disease, and tooth loss.
Unleash Your Smile Potential with Clear Aligners
The first step to an aligned smile is an Invisalign consultation with our skilled and certified Invisalign dentists. Our dentists take 3D images of your mouth to create customized aligners within minutes. Specialized software and input from our team develop an algorithm that helps calculate just the right amount of force for every tooth movement.
During treatment, you’ll switch to a new set of aligners every two weeks, gradually moving your teeth into the desired positions. To avoid prolonging treatment, Invisalign in San Antonio, TX, Pleasanton, TX, and New Braunfels, TX, must be worn for a minimum of 20–22 hours daily. Regular check-ins help ensure your journey to a straighter smile proceeds as it should, with desired results typically achieved within 12–18 months.
Advantages of Orthodontics with Clear Aligners
Invisalign is an ideal choice to improve your smile alignment discreetly. The BPA-free plastic aligners are virtually invisible, so you won’t have to worry about people noticing your orthodontic work. Invisalign aligners are made of a proprietary material called SmartTrack®, so they fit snugly and comfortably against your teeth and gums, with no metal wires or brackets that commonly cause discomfort.
Clear aligners in San Antonio, TX, Pleasanton, TX, and New Braunfels, TX, are easily removable, so in addition to mealtime and oral hygiene, you can take them out for special occasions. Research shows patients treated with Invisalign have better periodontal health and greater satisfaction during treatment than those who wore traditional metal braces. In addition, getting orthodontics from the same trusted family dentists as preventive care ensures your newly aligned smile stays healthy and radiant down the road!
