If you’re looking for a discreet, modern way to straighten your teeth, you’re not alone—Invisalign is one of the most popular orthodontic options for patients of all ages in Pittsburgh. At Bridge City Braces, we offer personalized Invisalign treatment plans designed to fit your lifestyle and goals.
But is Invisalign right for you? Here’s what you need to know.
What Is Invisalign?
Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually shift your teeth into alignment. Each set is worn for about 1–2 weeks before moving on to the next. Treatment times vary but often fall between 12 and 18 months.
The aligners are custom-made using advanced 3D imaging and mapping, allowing for precise, predictable results.
Who Can Benefit from Invisalign?
Invisalign is a great option for:
- Adults seeking a more discreet alternative to braces
- Teens looking for a flexible solution that fits their lifestyle
- Patients with mild to moderate spacing, crowding, or bite issues
During your consultation at our Pittsburgh office, we’ll determine if Invisalign is the right fit for your specific needs.
Invisalign vs. Traditional Braces
While both Invisalign and braces are effective, they each have unique benefits:
- Invisalign is removable, allowing for unrestricted eating and easier brushing/flossing.
- Braces may be better for more complex cases, especially those requiring vertical tooth movement or significant bite adjustments.
- Invisalign offers more freedom and aesthetics, while braces offer consistent, all-day correction.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your Invisalign journey with Bridge City Braces starts with a digital scan—no messy impressions here! From there, we’ll map out your treatment plan, show you a preview of your future smile, and deliver your first sets of aligners.
You’ll wear your aligners for 20–22 hours a day and check in with us every 6–10 weeks to monitor progress. Most patients find Invisalign easy to stick with once they get into a routine.
