Invisalign in San Antonio

Invisalign provides an effective and discreet alternative to traditional braces to straighten your teeth. At Henwood Family Dentistry in San Antonio TX, we offer Invisalign clear aligner treatment using a series of virtually invisable, custom-fit aligners that gradually shift teeth into place over time.

Invisalign aligners are made of smooth, comfortable plastic that is virtually invisible when worn. The aligners are produced in a series, with each tray incrementally moving the teeth further until the desired position and alignment are reached. Unlike traditional wire braces, Invisalign aligners are removable when eating, drinking, and cleaning teeth for improved convenience and hygiene.

The Invisalign system was introduced in 1997 and has since been utilized to straighten over 8 million smiles. As an FDA-cleared medical device, Invisalign has proven time and again to safely and effectively achieve remarkable orthodontic results. Our Invisalign-certified dentists use the latest advances in digital dentistry to plan and administer your customized treatment.

What Are the Benefits of Invisalign?

Transparent Invisalign aligners offering a nearly invisible teeth straightening solution at Henwood Family Dentistry, San Antonio, TX.

There are many key advantages to choosing Invisalign over conventional braces:

  • Nearly Invisible – Invisalign aligners are transparent and blend in seamlessly with natural teeth. Unless looked at up close, they are difficult to notice. This aesthetic benefit appeals to teens and adults alike.
  • Removable Design – Invisalign trays can be removed for eating, drinking, brushing flossing, etc. This facilitates better oral hygiene than braces typically allow during treatment.
  • Comfortable Fit – The smooth plastic aligners avoid irritation, scratches, and discomfort caused by traditional metal braces and brackets. Patients experience less abrasion and soreness.
  • Shorter Treatment Time – The average Invisalign case takes 9-18 months to complete, which is typically less time than required for orthodontic treatment with braces.
  • Improved Hygiene – Removability makes it easier to maintain diligent brushing and flossing habits throughout treatment. Oral health remains optimal.
  • Normal Speech – Invisalign does not interfere with speech like traditional braces. Patients avoid a temporary lisp or slurring.
  • Easier Diet – Patients don’t have food restrictions with Invisalign and can continue eating their normal diet.
