Invisalign®

Here at the Cedar Rapids Smile Center, we have been treating patients with Invisalign for over 10 years with incredible results. Invisalign uses clear aligners to treat misaligned teeth without the wires and brackets of traditional braces.

Some benefits of Invisalign treatment include:

  • Virtually Invisible – Only you will know you’re in orthodontic treatment.
  • Completely Removeable – Eat, drink, brush and floss normally. Remove the aligners for special occasions.
  • Faster Treatment Time – No fixed metal brackets/wires to adjust means spending less time in the dental chair. A trip to our office will occur every 4-8 weeks to evaluate the progression of treatment and provide additional aligners.
  • Less Wear, Trauma and Discomfort – Aligned teeth have less risk of chipping, breaking and wear. Proper alignment reduces stress on the jawbone and joints.

Healthier Gums, Reduced Risk for Systemic Disease – Brushing and flossing around properly aligned teeth is easier, reducing risk for tooth decay and gum disease. Aligned teeth are less likely to have pockets between gums and teeth which trap plaque and bacteria. Potential systemic conditions from these bacteria in the mouth include, but are not limited to, Alzheimer’s, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, colorectal cancer, and respiratory tract infection.

Dr.’s Yossi, Watson and Henrich initially fabricate a custom treatment plan based upon our goals, which we then submit to Invisalign for fabrication of a custom fitting series of clear aligners, created to gently and predictably bring the teeth into alignment. Invisalign treatment can resolve a variety of common problems, including crowding, rotated teeth, gapped teeth, overbite (deep bite), excessive overjet, edge to edge bite, open bites, narrow bite as well as some crossbites.
