What Are Invisalign Clear Aligners?
Invisalign is a modern orthodontic system that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gently shift your teeth into place over time. These custom-fit trays are made from smooth, BPA-free plastic and are nearly invisible when worn.
Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign aligners are discreet and flexible, allowing you to straighten your teeth without interrupting your professional or social life. They’re ideal for adults who want an orthodontic treatment option that’s both effective and subtle.
Invisalign can correct a wide range of orthodontic concerns, including:
- Crowding and spacing issues
- Overbite, underbite, and crossbite
- Mild to moderate alignment problems
- Shifting teeth after previous treatment
How Does Invisalign Work?
The Invisalign process begins with a 3D digital scan of your teeth using advanced imaging — no goopy impressions required. From there, we’ll develop a personalized treatment plan that maps out each stage of your smile transformation.
You’ll receive a series of clear aligners, each worn for 1–2 weeks before switching to the next set. Each aligner gently moves your teeth closer to their ideal position. For best results, aligners should be worn 20–22 hours per day and only removed for eating, drinking (except water), brushing, and flossing.
The Invisalign process includes:
- A digital scan and personalized treatment plan
- A custom series of aligners designed for your smile goals
- Check-in appointments to monitor your progress
- A supportive, professional team guiding you at every step

Adult Invisalign FAQs for Hayden Residents
Am I too old for Invisalign?
Not at all! Many of our patients begin Invisalign in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond. As long as your teeth and gums are healthy, age is not a barrier.
How long does Invisalign treatment take for adults?
Most adult Invisalign treatments take 12–18 months, depending on your specific needs. Some mild cases may finish sooner.
Will people be able to tell I’m wearing aligners?
Invisalign aligners are clear and discreet — most people won’t notice you’re wearing them unless you tell them.
Can I switch to Invisalign if I’ve already had braces?
Yes! Invisalign is great for adults who’ve had braces in the past and want to correct minor shifting or relapse.
Does Invisalign hurt?
You may feel mild pressure when switching to a new aligner, but it’s temporary and generally more comfortable than braces.
