What are Invisalign® Clear Aligners?
Invisalign is a customized, clear aligner system designed to shift teeth into their ideal position gradually. Unlike metal braces, Invisalign aligners are:
- Virtually Invisible – Clear aligners blend seamlessly with your smile.
- Comfortable – Smooth, plastic aligners eliminate irritation.
- Removable – Take them out for eating, drinking, and brushing.
- Customized for You – Designed using advanced 3D imaging technology.
- Efficient and Effective – Delivers noticeable results, often in 12 to 18 months.
Many orthodontists trust Invisalign because of its precision and ability to treat a wide range of common orthodontic issues, including overcrowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, and crossbites.
Why Choose Invisalign Over Braces?
Invisalign offers discreet, flexible, and convenient orthodontic treatment, making it an excellent choice for teens and adults alike. The benefits of Invisalign include:

How Does Invisalign Orthodontic Treatment Work?
Invisalign treatment follows a simple yet highly effective process to align your teeth gradually.
- Digital Scan and Treatment Plan – Dr. Hutchison uses 3D imaging to create a detailed treatment plan, mapping out each step of your smile transformation.
- Custom Aligner Fabrication – A series of aligners is crafted to move your teeth in small, controlled shifts.
- Wear and Change Aligners – Every one to two weeks, you switch to the next set of aligners, gradually guiding your teeth into their ideal position.
- Regular Check-Ins – Throughout treatment, Dr. Hutchison monitors your progress and provides new aligners as needed.
Invisalign aligners should be worn for 20 to 22 hours daily for optimal results. Removing them too often or for extended periods can delay treatment progress.
