Invisalign: The No-Braces Way to Straight Teeth -- Dr. Brodsky

You can have perfectly straight teeth without months of wearing metal brackets and wires. And Brodsky Orthodontics can walk you through it!

Invisalign can give you the beautiful straight teeth you've always wanted. It works through a series of invisible, removable, and comfortable aligners. No one can tell you're wearing them, so you can smile more during and after treatment.

Invisalign has been proven effective and is widely available. In fact, more than 70% of orthodontists in the U.S. and Canada are certified to treat with Invisalign.

How Does Invisalign Work?

* Each set of aligners is worn for about 2 weeks. These aligners are removed only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
* As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move – little by little, week by week – until they have straightened to the position your orthodontist has prescribed.
* You'll visit our office about once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.
* Total treatment time averages 9-15 months and the average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30.
