Ask Dr. Skibell: Is Invisalign® really for everyone?

Yes, it is, and that’s part of what makes it work. A complimentary consultation with Dr. David Skibell can determine if Invisalign is right for you. Invisalign uses a series of invisible, removable and comfortable aligners that no one can tell you’re wearing. So, you can smile more during treatment as well as after. Invisalign is made with 3-D computer imaging technology and has been proven effective. Not only are the aligners invisible, they are removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment.

So, how does Invisalign work, you ask? You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move — little by little, week by week — until they have straightened to the final position Dr. Skibell has prescribed.
