DENTAL ALIGNERS

Invisalign aligners are custom-made clear plastic aligners manufactured at the Align Technologies dental laboratory using CAD-CAM processes that are designed to move your teeth in small increments from the original position to the most desired natural position. Each aligner must be worn in its specific order for about two weeks, during which time it moves the teeth in small increments.
Although the aligners are removable (for eating, drinking certain beverages, and brushing/flossing), they must be worn at least 20 hours a day in order to reposition the teeth successfully.
