Why Teeth Become Crooked
Teeth can become crooked for a variety of reasons. Some are genetic, such as jaw size or malocclusions where the teeth don't fit together correctly. Habits from childhood, like thumb-sucking, can also affect tooth alignment. Other times, teeth may shift due to the loss of a tooth, periodontal disease, or simply natural growth. Whatever the cause, misaligned teeth can be more than a cosmetic concern.
The Importance of Straight Teeth
Straight teeth are not just about a beautiful smile; they are crucial for your oral health. Crooked or crowded teeth can create hard-to-reach areas that are difficult to clean, increasing the risk of cavities and gum disease. Improper alignment can also put abnormal stress on teeth and jaws, which can lead to premature wear, TMJ discomfort, and chronic headaches.
The Clear Alternative to Braces
Invisalign is an innovative orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners to gradually straighten your teeth. Unlike traditional braces, these aligners are virtually invisible and can be removed, which means you can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that straightens teeth using a series of clear, custom-made, removable aligners. It offers a less noticeable, more comfortable, and convenient alternative to metal braces.
How does Invisalign work?
Invisalign aligners apply controlled pressure to your teeth, gradually moving them into the desired position. Each set of aligners is worn for about 1-2 weeks before moving on to the next set in the series.
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
The duration of Invisalign treatment varies by individual but typically ranges from 12 to 18 months. Your exact treatment time will depend on the complexity of your case and how often you wear your aligners.
How often do I need to wear my Invisalign aligners?
For optimal results, it's recommended that you wear your Invisalign aligners for 20 to 22 hours per day, only removing them to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
Is Invisalign treatment painful?
Invisalign treatment involves gradual movement of your teeth and is generally not painful. Some patients may experience temporary discomfort for a few days at the beginning of each new stage of treatment.
Can Invisalign fix my overbite/underbite/crossbite/gaps?
Invisalign can effectively treat many orthodontic issues, including overbites, underbites, crossbites, gap teeth, and crowded teeth. During your consultation at Dynamic Dental Design, we'll determine if Invisalign is the right treatment for your specific case.
Will Invisalign affect my speech?
Some people may notice a slight lisp when they first begin wearing Invisalign aligners, but this typically subsides quickly as you become accustomed to wearing them.
How much does Invisalign cost?
The cost of Invisalign treatment is comparable to traditional braces and varies depending on the complexity of your case. Dynamic Dental Design offers various financing options to make Invisalign affordable for our patients.
Is Invisalign covered by dental insurance?
Many dental insurance plans cover Invisalign just as they would other orthodontic treatments like braces. Check with your insurance provider for specific coverage details.
How do I take care of my Invisalign aligners?
Clean your Invisalign aligners daily with Invisalign cleaning crystals or by brushing and rinsing them in lukewarm water. Avoid hot water, which can warp the plastic.
What happens after my Invisalign treatment is complete?
To maintain your new smile, you'll need to wear retainers. Initially, you may need to wear them full-time, and then only at night. We'll provide you with a customized retainer plan to ensure your smile stays straight.
