A Straighter Smile Without the Wires
At Westlake Dental Care, Dr. Smith and Dr. Willis offer Invisalign® — the leading clear aligner system trusted by millions worldwide. Invisalign provides a modern, discreet, and highly effective way to straighten your teeth without the hassle of traditional braces. Whether you're dealing with crowding, gaps, or bite issues, Invisalign can help you achieve the smile you've always wanted — comfortably and confidently.
Why Choose Invisalign?
Nearly Invisible
Invisalign aligners are made from a smooth, clear plastic that fits snugly over your teeth. They’re so discreet, most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them — making Invisalign an ideal option for adults and teens who want a low-profile alternative to metal braces.
Removable Flexibility
You can easily take your aligners out when eating, drinking, brushing, or flossing — no dietary restrictions, no special tools needed. Enjoy your favorite foods and maintain your regular hygiene routine with ease.
Comfortable and Gentle
Unlike braces with metal brackets and wires that can irritate your cheeks and gums, Invisalign aligners are smooth and custom-fitted. You may feel mild pressure as your teeth shift — a sign it’s working — but most patients report little to no discomfort.
Cleaner, Healthier Smiles
Because the aligners are removable, it’s easier to keep your teeth and gums clean throughout treatment. There’s no risk of food getting stuck in brackets or struggling to floss between wires — just pop your aligners out, clean your teeth, and go.
Customized Just for You
We use advanced 3D scanning technology to capture a precise digital image of your mouth and create a customized series of aligners that gradually move your teeth into their ideal positions.
Faster Results
In many cases, Invisalign can straighten your teeth in as little as 6 to 12 months, compared to 1–3 years with traditional braces. Plus, fewer in-office visits are needed — we’ll typically see you every 6–12 weeks to monitor your progress.
Why Straightening Your Teeth Matters
Orthodontic treatment is about more than just cosmetics. Misaligned teeth can contribute to a variety of dental health issues, including:
-
Tooth decay and gum disease due to harder-to-reach areas
-
Jaw pain or uneven wear on teeth
-
Speech difficulties or improper bite alignment
With Invisalign, you’ll not only improve your smile but support your long-term oral health.
