Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, clear removable aligners that gradually shift your teeth into proper alignment. Each set of aligners is worn for about two weeks, gently guiding your smile into place step by step. Most patients complete treatment in 12–24 months, depending on the complexity of their case.
Because Invisalign trays are transparent and fit snugly over your teeth, most people will never notice you’re wearing them.
Why Patients in Gardena Choose Invisalign
Many patients prefer Invisalign over traditional metal braces because it offers:
- Virtually invisible aligners
- No food restrictions
- No metal brackets or wires
- Easy brushing and flossing
- Fewer in-office visits
- Smooth, comfortable trays with less irritation
For working adults, college students, and teens, Invisalign provides a flexible, lifestyle-friendly orthodontic option.
Book Your Appointment OnlineHow Invisalign Works
Invisalign moves your teeth using a series of thin, durable, BPA-free plastic aligners. Here’s how the process works:
- Digital Scan & Treatment Plan – We capture a 3D scan of your teeth to map out every step of your alignment.
- Custom Aligner Series – Your clear aligners are created specifically for your bite.
- Wear Each Set for 1–2 Weeks – You’ll switch to a new aligner set as your teeth gradually shift.
- Check-ins Every 6–8 Weeks – These are quick, comfortable, and allow us to monitor your progress.
- Final Refinements – If needed, we fine-tune the results with additional trays.
Invisalign can effectively correct:
- Crowding
- Gaps or spaces
- Mild to moderate overbites and underbites
- Crooked or rotated teeth
- Relapse after braces
How Much Does Invisalign Cost in Gardena?
The cost of Invisalign varies depending on how much movement your teeth require. Mild cases cost less, while more complex alignment may require additional trays.
Most patients find that Invisalign in Gardena costs about the same as traditional braces, and financing options are available.
To help make treatment affordable, we offer:
- Flexible monthly payment plans
- No-interest or low-interest financing (on approval)
- Payment arrangements for uninsured patients
Does Insurance Cover Invisalign?
Yes, many dental insurance plans include orthodontic benefits that cover a portion of Invisalign treatment. Coverage varies, but we will verify your benefits and help you understand your exact out-of-pocket cost before starting.
If you don’t have orthodontic coverage, we can still help you choose a comfortable payment plan.
How Long Does Invisalign Take?
Most adults and teens complete treatment in 12–24 months, but the exact timeline depends on:
- The complexity of your alignment
- How consistently you wear the trays
- Any additional refinements needed
Complex orthodontic issues may require up to 24–36 months, while mild cases can finish faster.
Book Your Appointment OnlineIs Invisalign Right for Everyone?
Invisalign is excellent for adults and mature teens, but it is not ideal for children whose teeth and jaw are still developing. In some cases—such as severe bite issues or complex tooth movement—traditional braces may be more effective.
During your consultation, your dentist will evaluate your teeth, bite, and goals to determine whether Invisalign or braces will give you the best and most stable results.
Invisalign vs. Braces: Which Option Is Better?
Both Invisalign and traditional braces can create beautiful, healthy smiles. The right choice depends on your specific dental needs.
