What is Invisalign?

Invisalign® is a revolutionary orthodontic treatment that straightens teeth using a series of clear, removable aligners, not traditional metal braces. Each set of aligners is custom-made to shift your teeth into their ideal position gradually. Unlike conventional braces, Invisalign offers a discreet and comfortable way to achieve a beautifully aligned smile. Dr. Albert Chow provides expert Invisalign treatment in Malibu, helping patients improve their smiles without the inconvenience of wires and brackets. With Invisalign, you can enjoy a nearly invisible orthodontic solution that suits your lifestyle.

How Does Invisalign Work?

Invisalign treatments involve a series of clear, custom-made aligners that fit snugly over your teeth. These aligners are changed approximately every one to two weeks, gradually shifting your teeth into alignment. The treatment is carefully mapped out using advanced 3D imaging technology, ensuring precision and results that match your vision for your smile. Each aligner applies gentle pressure to targeted teeth, encouraging movement over time. Because the aligners are removable, you can continue to enjoy your favorite foods and maintain excellent oral hygiene without the hassle of traditional braces. Regular check-ups with Dr. Chow help monitor your progress and ensure you’re on track to a smile you love to share.

How Long Does Invisalign Take to Straighten Teeth?

The duration of Invisalign treatment varies depending on the complexity of your case. Most patients achieve their desired results within 12 to 18 months. However, some individuals may see noticeable improvements in just a few months, while more complex cases could take longer. Wearing your aligners as instructed—typically 20 to 22 hours daily—is essential for staying on schedule. Dr. Chow will provide a personalized treatment timeline during your consultation, ensuring you are prepared for the journey to a straighter smile.

What Can Invisalign Correct?

Invisalign is an effective solution for a variety of dental concerns, including:

  • Crooked Teeth – Aligners gently reposition teeth for a straighter smile.
  • Overbite – Helps correct upper front teeth that overlap too much.
  • Underbite – Aligners shift lower teeth forward to improve bite alignment.
  • Crossbite – Treats misaligned upper and lower teeth that don’t fit together properly.
  • Gaps Between Teeth – Closes unwanted spaces for a more uniform smile.
  • Open Bite – Aligners help bring upper and lower teeth together for proper function.
  • Mild to Moderate Crowding – Creates space by gradually shifting teeth into place.
