Is Invisalign for Me?

It’s Never Too Late for Invisalign®

Invisalign® is the number one choice for clear braces. With Invisalign® you can love your reflection for the first time thanks to removable aligners.

Team Shinto is well equipped to handle your tipped, rotated or crowded teeth. If you have always detested that less than small gap between your teeth, Invisalign® is the answer to your crooked teeth woes.

What is Invisalign®?

If you have been checking out the dental website you’ll know that Invisalign® is a removable braces system that requires no painful adjustments.

If you know anything about conventional wires and brackets you’ll know that seeing the orthodontist or dentist every two weeks is mandatory. With Invisalign® you will only need to sit in the dentist’s chair every six weeks.

Invisalign® is custom designed for your smile. After pictures and digital images are taken, Dr. Shinto or Dr. Low will send them to the lab.

Most patients receive between 10 and 40 sets of aligners. These clear plastic braces are swapped out every seven to 14 days depending on your Invisalign® customized plan.

You will wear your set of aligners for 22 hours every day. You must adhere to the protocol or it will impede your treatment. A successful procedure means following the instructions to the letter.

Is Invisalign® Right for Me?

Invisalign® works best for people who have mild to moderate problems.

If you have a bite that is massively out of alignment, a large space between your teeth or an out of control over or under bite, Dr. Shinto or Dr. Low may recommend conventional wires and brackets.
