Invisalign

Revolutionize your smile journey with our premier Invisalign treatment! We are proud to offer this advanced, nearly invisible teeth-straightening solution that delivers remarkable results without the inconvenience of traditional metal braces. The Invisalign system utilizes a series of custom-made, clear aligners, crafted from medical-grade thermoplastic polymers, ensuring maximum comfort and minimal visibility. These aligners gradually and gently shift your teeth into their desired position, as determined by our expert team. They are removable for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing, promoting overall oral health throughout the treatment process. Best suited for adults and teenagers, Invisalign is an ideal solution for those seeking a discreet yet effective orthodontic treatment. With Invisalign, you can confidently work towards your dream smile without compromising your lifestyle.
Invisalign is a clear, and virtually invisible, alternative to metal braces. Invisalign straightens teeth just like braces, but Invisalign aligners come with less restrictions than braces. Invisalign allows you to eat whatever foods you enjoy and brush and floss normally. Most importantly, why wear a mouth full of metal when you can do the same things (in the right hands) for less money while in clear esthetic trays?

Both braces and Invisalign help to straighten your teeth, and in many cases, the better choice depends on your specific situation. Many people prefer Invisalign because there are less restrictions in terms of eating, they are less visible, and they may be more comfortable. However, braces are often better for children because they require less responsibility in terms of upkeep since there is an option to remove them for cleaning.

With Dr Boji’s years of expert experience and training, Invisalign can work for almost ALL. Call or schedule online for a FREE consultation to determine how well Invisalign can work for you.
Adults typically do not have orthodontic coverage. There can be limitations and exclusions, for example, age limitations & waiting periods. Insurance also places many limitations on us preventing ideal treatment for you. Because of this, we do not participate with insurance.

The length of treatment depends on the severity of your case. With the average dentist, treatment takes about 12 months. But, with the techniques Dr. Boji uses to make Invisalign work better, her cases finish on average in about 6 months. Here’s a look at the process:

Consultation

Dr. Bianca Boji will meet with you and review how Invisalign can solve your concerns. Records, including a digital scan and photos of your teeth, are taken. If you choose to proceed, she can start designing your new smile right away and your trays will arrive 4 weeks later.

Four Weeks Later

Your trays arrive at the office and you come in to learn how to incorporate Invisalign into your life style. We teach you how to take your trays off and on and how to care for them. From that point on, you will wear your trays 22 out of 24 hours a day. Yes, all day; eating (optional), sleeping, day, night, all the time except to clean.  Please note that if you do not wear them this often, your Invisalign treatment will be far less effective. Simply put, the more you wear it, the better it will work. Throughout your treatment, you will meet with Dr. Boji when necessary to guide you to success.  For your convenience this can be a minimal number of visits.  However,
you are always welcome to see us more if you desire. 

 After the Trays

At the end of your treatment, when you and Dr.Boji are happy, you will be provided with 4 FREE sets of upper and lower retainers. You will wear the retainers in the beginning for 22 out of 24 hours a day, for 3 months until your teeth’s position firms up. Then you will wear the retainers every night for as long as you want your teeth to remain straight.  And you will replace retainers a minimum of every two years to prevent them from stretching and your teeth shifting. Retainers will also help prevent damage from grinding and/or clenching, which most adults do yet most are unaware.  In addition, they make great whitening trays.

Invisalign® takes a modern approach to straightening teeth, using a custom-made series of aligners created for you and only you. These aligner trays are made of smooth, comfortable, clear, and virtually invisible plastic that you wear over your teeth. Wearing the aligners will gradually shift your teeth into place. You will start a new set of aligners on a regular customized schedule to best fit your needs, until your treatment is completed.
Invisalign works comparable to braces to straighten teeth and fix dental problems including bite issues, gapped teeth, and crowding. Just take a look at some of our before & after photos to see just how effective Invisalign is in producing beautiful smiles.
Unlike braces, your Invisalign aligners can be removed. This helps facilitate cleaning, which leads to better health.  However, if you don’t wear them, they won’t work.  If you don’t wear them enough, they won’t work well.  We find that most patients can eat any diet they choose during treatment.  It takes about a week to get used to this.  However, we do recommend you stay away from curry, turmeric, and yellow mustard since they irreversibly stain the trays.  If you must enjoy foods that cause this stain, we recommend you do so on the last day of that tray.  This means you don’t need to restrict your diet habits, just as long as you wear your trays for 24 hours a day.
Yes, it is safe to drink alcohol, coffee, or anything else. It’s important to rinse your mouth & aligners if you have been drinking any sugary beverages (with or without alcohol).

Yes. Invisalign is also designed to correct an underbite. An underbite is when you close your mouth and your lower teeth are in front of your upper teeth – the opposite of an overbite. Usually, this means there’s a problem with your lower jaw being too far forward.

Those who have an underbite often suffer from headaches, difficulty of breathing, chewing and speaking properly. It can also cause your teeth to wear down quickly. Invisalign can fix some underbites, but severe underbites might require surgery alongside the Invisalign treatment.

Each patient is different so it’s important to have an Invisalign consultation to determine if you have any underlying issues that are causing an underbite.

Yes. Invisalign is also designed to correct an overbite. An overbite is when the upper front teeth overlap with your lower front teeth. Overbites are one of the most common reasons patients undergo treatment for teeth realignment and most people do have some sort of overbite!

If your overbite is too large, a doctor may tell you that you have something called a deep bite. This can cause your teeth to wear down which can result in cavities, gum disease, and worn tooth enamel. It also can cause jaw pain, including TMJ. But the good news is that Invisalign can treat overbites and deep bites!

An experienced professional like Dr. Boji is the key to a successful outcome with Invisalign treatment.

Your aligners can be cleaned by brushing them with toothpaste carefully and rinsing them in lukewarm water.

Trays 1 and 2 are to be worn for 2 weeks each. All other trays are meant to be worn for 1 week each.
Yes, you can! You are not required to however, it does make your treatment go smoother if you do. Your trays must be in your mouth for a minimum of 22 hours per day. Eating with them on makes that easier. After every meal, whether you eat with them on or not, brush and floss your teeth and clean your trays.
