Invisalign® is an advanced orthodontic treatment using clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign aligners are nearly invisible and offer a comfortable, convenient option for teeth straightening. At Raymore Family Dentistry, we proudly provide Invisalign treatment to help you achieve the smile of your dreams.

Invisalign offers a variety of aligners to meet different needs:
- Invisalign Express 5: Ideal for very mild spacing, crowding, or orthodontic relapse, with up to 5 aligners.
- Invisalign Express Package: Suitable for minor corrections, with up to 7 aligners.

The Invisalign Treatment Process
The Invisalign treatment process involves several key steps:
- Consultation: Assessing your dental needs to determine if Invisalign is right for you.
- Impressions: Digital impressions of your teeth are taken to create a customized treatment plan.
- Aligner Changes: You’ll receive a series of aligners, each worn for about two weeks, gradually shifting your teeth into the desired position.

Addressing common concerns:
- Comfort: Made from smooth, BPA-free plastic, Invisalign aligners are more comfortable than traditional braces.
