Faster treatment: With weekly aligner changes, you’re on your way to the smile you want even faster. Depending on your response to treatment, particularly in mature adults, we may consider longer periods between aligner changes.
Proven results: SmartTrack® material and SmartForce® features are clinically proven to improve control of tooth movement with Invisalign clear aligners.

Better fit: Aligners made from SmartTrack material are comfortable, fit well, and are easy to put on and take off.

Effective: Invisalign clear aligners can treat a wide range of teeth-straightening conditions, including crossbites, crowding, open bites, gapped teeth, overbites, and underbites.

Virtually invisible: Most people won’t even know you’re going through treatment, because Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible!

Comfortable: Invisalign clear aligner trays are not only smooth and comfortable to wear, but they’re also removable. That means you can continue doing all the things you normally would, from brushing and flossing to eating whatever you like.

Convenient: Invisalign treatment is ideal for your busy schedule, since you only need to visit our office every six weeks.

There are all sorts of orthodontics on the market right now, and there’s no doubt that each version has benefits for the patient. There is one style, however, that we believe in above all of the others. Invisalign clear aligners, especially when compared to traditional metal braces, has so much to offer our patients that we find it difficult to recommend anything else! Take a look at some of those reasons below.

Cleaning Power – One of the greatest Invisalign benefits is the quick and easy way to clean clear aligners. Metal braces required lots of time picking and poking to remove food particles. Invisalign, on the other hand, simply requires a quick brush and rinse while you are caring for your teeth!

Comfort Measure – Compared to the discomfort of poking wires and rough brackets, Invisalign is completely comfortable! The surfaces of the brackets are smooth against your soft tissues, so there’s no need for wax to protect your lips and cheeks.

Confidence Abounds – Traditional metal braces tend to make the patient feel a loss of confidence, especially when picture time arrives. Invisalign, on the other hand, is so inconspicuous that patients don’t think twice before offering a full smile at any moment!

Invisalign is a very important product for our patients because these clear aligners have completely changed the way we approach orthodontic care. Contact us today to set up a consultation to discuss your orthodontic options. We can’t wait to see your brand new smile.

Palo Alto Dental Care uses the most state-of-the-art technology available to help create the smile you want, which is why we use the iTero digital impression system, created by Align Technology. Our digital impression system replaces the uncomfortable, unpleasant-tasting, messy, and sometimes inaccurate, traditional putty impressions. No bulky trays or sticky putty needed!

Using a digital scanner, Palo Alto Dentist Dr. Kurosch Hatami will take three-dimensional (3-D) digital images, or impressions, of your teeth and bite. These impressions will help us formulate a personalized treatment plan that meets your specific orthodontic needs and desires. We can also use them to visually show you your treatment options and help us keep you up-to-date on your treatment progress. After your specific treatment plan has been chosen, the digital impressions allow us to create customized bracket trays that we use to place your brackets onto your teeth, all at one time, with increased efficiency and overall effectiveness.

Some benefits of iTero digital impressions over traditional putty impressions include:

• Accuracy: They capture the exact contours of your teeth.
• Efficiency: They require less time in the treatment chair.
• Comfort: Taking the digital images is less invasive. No putty is used, and patients are more at ease without fearing they will gag on the impression putty.
• Customization: They provide a digital plan and allow for trays that are tailored to meet the individual needs and desires of each patient.
• Visualization: They provide each patient with a definite picture of what their teeth will look like before, during and after orthodontic treatment.
• Innovation: They use the most advanced 3-D video technologies.
