Invisalign is a method of correcting an irregular or crooked bite without the use of metal brackets. It consists of a series of clear aligner trays customized to your bit goals. They gradually shift your teeth into proper alignment.
The trays are created using computer monitoring so they fit your teeth exactly and follow the treatment plan created by Dr. Giraldo to get you the smile you’ve always wanted.
Invisalign is a revolutionary way to create a straight smile in people with crooked teeth. Straightening your teeth improves your self-esteem and allows you to speak and smile with confidence.
Misaligned teeth can also contribute to tooth decay and gum disease from plaque, tartar, and bacterial buildup. When teeth are crowded, too widely spaced, or overlapping, proper hygiene is harder to maintain.
Invisalign can address most of the same bite issues as braces, but often with a quicker treatment plan.

Invisalign’s technology offers a number of advantages as compared to braces.
Invisalign trays are removable, so you can clean your teeth as you always do without having to navigate between brackets. There’s no need to use special brushes or flossing devices. The trays are easily rinsed off and placed right back onto your teeth.
Invisalign trays are made from a state-of-the-art plastic that’s perfectly smooth. They won’t nick or irritate your mouth’s soft tissue.
With braces, you have dietary restrictions because certain foods may get stuck in the brackets or you can’t easily take a bite. For example, whole apples are just too hard to eat when you have braces. With Invisalign, there are no eating restrictions. You remove Invisalign trays to eat and drink, so you can continue to enjoy your favorite foods.
The aligners are clear and fit snugly right over your teeth. No one will know you’re wearing them.
