What Is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a system of custom-made, clear plastic aligners designed to fit your teeth perfectly. These aligners are worn for around 20-22 hours a day, with each set gradually shifting your teeth into the desired position over time. Treatment time varies, but many patients achieve their desired results in 12 to 18 months.
