INVISALIGN IN FARGO
Straighten your teeth without anyone noticing!
YOUR ALTERNATIVE TO BRACES
Like braces, Invisalign straightens teeth and corrects smiles flaws. However, Invisalign uses clear aligners instead of metal brackets and wires.
These aligners are custom made to fit comfortably over your teeth and gradually move them into alignment. You can remove them to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
Invisalign is the world’s leading clear aligner, and its technology has advanced significantly. Patients who were previously not candidates may now be eligible.

Most of our patients invest in the use of a high-frequency vibration (HFV) device to speed up treatment time. This orthodontic device will help you switch trays every seven days vs. every 14 days – cutting your treatment time in half.
At our office, this whole process takes an average of six to nine months to complete.

The process of Invisalign was very easy. I did not expect so much result in such a short time. At work, people don’t even know I have Invisalign because they can’t see it.
