Want straighter teeth without the wires and brackets? Invisalign® at Optimal Dental Care offers a clear, comfortable alternative to traditional braces — custom-designed for your smile right here in Artesia, CA. Our team will create a personalized treatment plan to gradually and gently move your teeth into place.
Why Choose Invisalign® at Optimal Dental Care
At Optimal Dental Care, we believe straightening your teeth should fit into your life — not disrupt it. Invisalign® uses a series of custom-made, clear plastic aligners that fit snugly over your teeth and gradually shift them into their ideal position according to a precise plan developed by our dentists in Artesia, CA. Each set of trays is worn for about two weeks before moving on to the next in the series, with each step bringing your smile closer to the final result.
Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign® aligners are virtually invisible and completely removable — meaning you can eat, drink, brush, and floss without any restrictions. The smooth plastic material is comfortable against your gums and cheeks, with no metal wires or brackets to cause irritation. Most patients complete their treatment in 12 to 18 months, though timelines vary depending on the complexity of each case.
Whether you’re dealing with crowding, spacing, overbite, or simply want a more aligned smile, Invisalign® at Optimal Dental Care can help you get there with confidence. Request an appointment today and find out if Invisalign® is the right choice for your smile.
FAQs
What is Invisalign® and how does it work?
Invisalign® is a teeth-straightening system that uses a series of custom-made clear plastic aligners to gradually shift your teeth into the desired position. Each set of trays is worn for approximately two weeks before progressing to the next set in your personalized treatment plan.
Is Invisalign® as effective as traditional braces?
For most patients, Invisalign® is highly effective at correcting a wide range of alignment issues including crowding, gaps, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. Our dentists at Optimal Dental Care will evaluate your specific case to determine whether Invisalign® is the best solution for your smile goals.
How long does Invisalign® treatment take?
Treatment length varies by case, but most patients complete Invisalign® in 12 to 18 months. Wearing your aligners for the recommended 20 to 22 hours per day is key to staying on schedule with your treatment plan.
Can I eat and drink with Invisalign® aligners in?
No — aligners should be removed before eating or drinking anything other than water. This is one of the biggest advantages of Invisalign®: no food restrictions and no difficulty cleaning your teeth during treatment.
Are Invisalign® aligners comfortable?
Yes. The smooth, BPA-free plastic aligners are designed to fit precisely over your teeth without any metal brackets or wires. Some patients experience mild pressure when switching to a new set of trays, which is a normal sign that the aligners are working.
How do I care for my Invisalign® aligners?
Rinse your aligners every time you remove them and brush them gently with a soft toothbrush to keep them clean and clear. Avoid soaking them in hot water, which can warp the plastic. Continue brushing and flossing your teeth as normal throughout treatment.
