What is Invisalign®?
Invisalign® is a modern orthodontic system that uses a series of smooth, metal-free trays to gradually shift your teeth into their ideal positions. According to the American Association of Orthodontists, each set of aligners is typically worn for one to two weeks at a time — at least 22 hours per day — before progressing to the next in the series. The trays are removable for meals, brushing, and flossing, so there are no food restrictions and no complicated hygiene steps. Learn more about Invisalign® treatment and what makes it one of the most sought-after options in orthodontics today.
At our Ridgewood office, treatment starts with a thorough consultation — including X-rays and a full exam — to evaluate your bite and oral health. If Invisalign® is the right fit, we take precise digital scans of your teeth to design a custom tray sequence. You’ll receive new aligners on a set schedule, with periodic check-ins to monitor your progress and keep everything on track.
What Conditions Can Invisalign® Treat?
Invisalign® can address a wider range of bite and alignment concerns than many patients expect. As a Sapphire Provider with one of the highest case volumes in the country, our team has the training to evaluate options that many general practices would refer elsewhere. Some of the concerns Invisalign® may be able to help with include:
- Crowded teeth: When teeth are too close together and overlapping, Invisalign® trays can gradually guide them into a more even arrangement.
- Gaps between teeth: Extra spacing can affect both appearance and function — Invisalign® can close those spaces over the course of treatment.
- Overbite: If your upper teeth significantly overlap the lower teeth when your mouth closes, Invisalign® may be able to bring the bite into better balance.
- Underbite: When the lower teeth sit in front of the upper teeth, Invisalign® can help reposition the bite depending on the severity of the case.
- Crossbite: Teeth that meet incorrectly on one or both sides of the mouth can create uneven wear — Invisalign® can address these positioning issues over time.
- Open bite: If the upper and lower teeth don’t come together when your mouth is closed, Invisalign® may be a viable path to correction.
- Rotated teeth: Teeth that have turned out of their natural position can be gently rotated back into alignment through the tray sequence.
Every case is different, and some complex needs may call for a different approach or a combination of treatments. Our team will assess your specific situation during your consultation and walk you through all available options.
Why Choose Invisalign® Over Metal Braces?
Both Invisalign® and metal braces can produce excellent results — the right choice depends on your case, your lifestyle, and your preferences. That said, many patients in Ridgewood and across Bergen County choose Invisalign® for several practical reasons.
The trays are nearly invisible, which makes them especially popular with adult professionals and teens who want to maintain their appearance throughout treatment. Because they’re removable, you can eat whatever you like and keep up your normal hygiene routine without any extra tools or steps. Invisalign® also tends to require fewer office visits than traditional braces — appointments are shorter and spaced further apart, which works well for busy schedules. And because the trays are made from smooth plastic, they’re generally easier on the soft tissue inside your mouth than brackets and wires.
What to Expect After Invisalign® Treatment
Finishing your Invisalign® tray sequence is the beginning of protecting the results you’ve worked toward, not the end of the process. After treatment, you’ll transition to wearing retainers to hold your teeth in their new positions. Teeth naturally want to drift back over time, so consistent retainer wear is what keeps your smile looking the way it did when you finished. Our team will give you detailed instructions and check in with you throughout the retention phase to make sure everything stays on track.
