Invisalign®

Amherst Orthodontics is a Premier Invisalign Provider

What does this mean for our patients and those considering Invisalign treatment? This designation means that Dr. Deb and Dr. Diane have demonstrated a level of expertise honed since Invisalign came on the market in 1999. They have also attended multiple hours of continuing education offered just to orthodontists. Align Technologies is proud to have these outstanding orthodontists deliver consistent and reliable results to their patients. A free consultation with Dr. Deb or Dr. Diane can determine if Invisalign is right for you!

What Is It?

Invisalign uses a series of invisible, removable, and comfortable aligners that no one can tell you’re wearing. So you can smile more during treatment as well as after! In fact, Dr. Diane has treated herself with Invisalign, and has surprised many patients and their parents, who didn't even notice them!

Why Would I Want It?

Not only are the aligners invisible, they are removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment, plus brushing and flossing are no problem. They are also comfortable, with no metal to cause mouth irritations during treatment. Many of our patients who have had braces before have reported the discomfort to be minimal.

How Does It Work?

You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move - little by little, week by week - until they have straightened to the final position the doctors have prescribed. You'll visit our office about once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.

We are proud providers of Invisalign Teen!

Invisalign teen is the clear alternative to braces; the aligners are virtually invisible and they are removable! Parents are often surprised to hear how compliant their teens are! It’s a terrific alternative for older teens, and those bothered by the esthetics of convention braces. Click here to watch a movie and learn more about Invisalign Teen!
