Unlock a brighter, straighter smile with minimal disruption to your daily life. Try Invisalign® clear aligners.
Your Invisalign® Dentist in Houston, TX
Invisalign® clear aligners are a comfortable and discreet orthodontic treatment worn over teeth to adjust their alignment and spacing continuously. They are custom-made based on models of your current teeth and your desired results. You will change aligner sets about every two weeks, with each set gradually shifting your teeth until you achieve your final results, which typically takes about two years. You should only remove the Invisalign aligners for eating, drinking, and cleaning. Initially, they may feel tight but become more comfortable after a few days.

How does the Invisalign® process work?
Invisalign® treatment involves wearing a series of custom-made, clear aligners that gradually shift your teeth into the desired position. Each set of aligners is worn for about two weeks before moving on to the next in the series, allowing your teeth to move gradually. The process starts with a consultation at Pearl Shine Dental, where we take digital impressions of your teeth to create a precise treatment plan tailored just for you. Treatment typically lasts 12 to 18 months, though the duration varies based on individual needs.

Invisalign® vs. braces—what's the difference?
While both Invisalign® and traditional braces aim to straighten teeth, they have distinct features. Invisalign® offers a discreet way to align your smile since the plastic aligners are clear. They are removable, allowing for easier eating and oral hygiene.
Braces are fixed to the teeth with wires and brackets and can be challenging to keep clean. They are also more noticeable, which might make them less appealing to those who are conscious about their appearance during treatment.
