When researching Invisalign® treatment, credentials matter. Exceptional outcomes rely on a doctor’s skill with this system. Choosing a Sapphire Invisalign® provider ensures your smile is in skilled hands.

Clemente Orthodontics earned Sapphire status by consistently delivering outstanding results to patients in Bergen and Rockland Counties. As a multigenerational family practice led by Dr Michael Clemente and his daughters, Dr Nicole and Dr Marissa, we’ve built our reputation on excellence and patient satisfaction. Our team treats more Invisalign® patients than 99% of providers nationally, making us the top Invisalign® provider in New York and New Jersey.

What Does Sapphire Invisalign Provider Status Mean?

Sapphire status is among the highest levels of Invisalign® providers. Align Technology, the company behind Invisalign®, awards it to doctors who complete hundreds of cases with outstanding results. Only 1% of providers nationwide reach this level.

To achieve Sapphire, providers must perform consistently over the years, completing many cases annually with high patient satisfaction and strong clinical outcomes. The status reflects volume and quality, proving experience with basic and complex smile concerns.

How Sapphire Differs from Other Provider Levels

The Invisalign® provider system ranges from Bronze to Sapphire, with each level determined by the number of completed cases. While any certified orthodontist can provide Invisalign®, higher tiers bring deeper experience.

Lower-tier providers handle fewer cases and may have less experience with orthodontic issues. Sapphire providers treat hundreds or thousands of patients, enabling better planning and more effective handling of challenges during treatment.

Why Provider Experience Matters for Invisalign Treatment

Not all Invisalign® cases require the same level of expertise. Simple cases are handled by any qualified provider, but complex cases require more skill. Examples of challenging cases include:

Tooth rotation or movement in multiple directions simultaneously
Spacing issues combined with alignment concerns
Previous orthodontic treatment requiring refinement or correction
Growing patients whose jaws are still developing

Experienced providers design plans to address these challenges efficiently. They know how to sequence tooth movements, use attachments strategically, and incorporate extra techniques when needed. A Sapphire provider has handled nearly every type of case and is prepared for unexpected challenges.

The Technology Behind Successful Outcomes

The Invisalign® system delivers results only when guided by skilled hands. Digital treatment planning allows orthodontists to map out your entire smile transformation before you begin wearing aligners. However, this planning requires deep knowledge of tooth movement mechanics, bone structure, and how different teeth respond to pressure.

The American Association of Orthodontics explains how advanced orthodontic training, combined with extensive Invisalign® experience, enables providers to predict how teeth will respond and adjust plans accordingly. Sapphire providers use this technology to create highly customised treatment approaches rather than relying on generic protocols. Each plan takes into account your unique facial structure, bite pattern, and aesthetic goals.

How Clemente Orthodontics Earned Sapphire Recognition

Our Sapphire journey started with a focus on orthodontic innovation. When Invisalign® emerged, we invested in top training and developed our own methods for different cases through careful study.

Over the years, we’ve refined our treatment protocols based on thousands of successful outcomes. Each case teaches us something new about how to optimize the Invisalign® system for different age groups, bite patterns, and aesthetic goals. This accumulated knowledge allows us to design more effective treatment plans from the start, potentially reducing your overall treatment time while improving results.

Our Approach to Invisalign Treatment

Our process begins with thorough diagnostics using digital scanning technology. We create a detailed treatment simulation showing you exactly how your smile will transform over time. This preview helps you understand what to expect and allows us to incorporate your preferences into the final plan. You’ll see your projected results before you commit to treatment.

Treatment Options for Every Age Group

One advantage of working with a Sapphire provider is access to Invisalign® solutions for patients at any life stage. We offer teen orthodontics designed specifically for younger patients still developing their permanent teeth. These specialised aligners include features that address common teen concerns, such as monitoring compliance and accommodating erupting teeth.

Adults benefit from our experience with established dental structures. Many have had prior orthodontic work or restorations needing careful planning. Our experience helps us smoothly include these factors in your plan.
