Invisalign® in Howard Beach

Discreet, Comfortable, and Effective Teeth Straightening

Achieving a straighter smile has never been easier with Invisalign. Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign offers a nearly invisible solution for straightening teeth, allowing you to improve your smile without the hassle of brackets and wires. 

At ProHEALTH Dental, we specialize in providing customized Invisalign treatments to help patients of all ages achieve a confident and healthy smile.

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is an advanced orthodontic treatment that utilizes clear, custom-made aligners to gradually shift teeth into their ideal position. Each set of aligners is designed specifically for the patient using 3D imaging technology, ensuring a precise and comfortable fit. The aligners are removable, making eating, brushing, and flossing easier compared to traditional braces.

How Does Invisalign Work?

The Invisalign process begins with a consultation at our Howard Beach dental office. During this visit, our experienced dental professionals will take digital impressions and create a customized treatment plan. 

Here’s how the process works:

1. Initial Consultation & 3D Scan – We take detailed digital scans of your teeth to map out your treatment plan.
2. Custom Aligner Fabrication – Your aligners are created to fit snugly and guide your teeth into alignment.
3. Wearing Your Aligners – You’ll wear each set of aligners for about 20-22 hours a day, changing to a new set approximately every two weeks.
4. Regular Check-Ups – We monitor your progress every few weeks to ensure optimal results.
5. Final Results & Retainers – Once your teeth are properly aligned, we may recommend a retainer to maintain your new smile.

Benefits of Invisalign in Howard Beach

Patients choose Invisalign for many reasons, including:

• Discreet Appearance – The clear aligners are virtually invisible, making them an ideal choice for professionals, teens, and anyone who prefers a subtle orthodontic solution.
• Comfortable Fit – Unlike metal braces, Invisalign aligners are smooth, eliminating the risk of irritation to your gums and cheeks.
• Removable Convenience – Eat your favorite foods and maintain your oral hygiene routine without restrictions.
• Faster Results – In many cases, Invisalign can achieve results in as little as six months to a year, depending on the complexity of the case.

Invisalign FAQ

How Long Does Invisalign Treatment Take?

The duration of Invisalign treatment varies depending on individual needs. While some patients may achieve their desired results in as little as six months, others may require up to 18 months for more complex cases. Our team at ProHEALTH Dental will provide a personalized estimate based on your initial consultation.

Will I Need a Retainer After Invisalign?

Yes, wearing a retainer after Invisalign treatment is typically recommended to prevent teeth from shifting back to their original position. We offer clear and comfortable retainers to help you maintain your beautifully straightened smile.

Does Invisalign Hurt?

Invisalign is designed for comfort, and most patients experience only mild discomfort when switching to a new set of aligners. This temporary pressure indicates that the aligners are effectively moving your teeth into their proper position. Any discomfort usually subsides within a few days.

Is Invisalign Covered by Insurance?

Some dental insurance plans cover Invisalign treatments, but coverage varies. Our team will review your insurance policy and help you determine your benefits. We also offer flexible financing options to make Invisalign treatment affordable for our Howard Beach patients.
