Orthodontics and Invisalign®
Far beyond aesthetics, Orthodontics is the area of dental medicine that corrects dental malposition. Orthodontic correction of teeth improves aesthetics and solves many other problems such as poor chewing, joint problems and pain, headaches and, in some cases, speech difficulties.
The vast majority of problems are hereditary and worsen with growth and acquired parafunctional habits (small addictions that we do not even realize). This is also why a correct follow-up from an early age is crucial, since there are signs that can only be detected by your orthodontist.
Invisalign® – one of the treatments of choice in the field of Orthodontics
Nowadays, you can correct the position of your teeth using transparent and removable aligners, and you do not need as many control appointments with a dentist as in a conventional treatment with dental brackets.
Invisalign ® aligners are created especially for you, with an exclusive material (Smart Track), resulting from a study done digitally which dictates the expected duration of the treatment. They can be used in simpler or more complex corrections — the duration of the treatment and the number of aligners to be used varies according to the complexity of the case.
FAQ — Frequently Asked Questions

How long does Invisalign® treatment last?
The duration of an Invisalign® treatment can vary greatly but is generally shorter than conventional treatment.

I've worn braces before and my teeth are out of place. Can I have treatment with Invisalign®?
