Invisalign® Teeth Straightening in Smyrna, GA

Properly aligned, straight teeth are more than just attractive. They’re more comfortable in your mouth and healthier. Crooked teeth and an improper bite can lead to future conditions that may become painful and possibly expensive to fix. The board-certified doctors of MINT dentistry are proud to use the Invisalign teeth straightening system for our patients in Smyrna, GA. Made custom for your teeth and designed to meet your goals, Invisalign dental aligners are more attractive and comfortable compared to metal orthodontics. They are also removable to make eating and cleaning much easier. If you want more information on having a straighter, more attractive smile, schedule a consultation with an Invisalign dentist at MINT dentistry. Our premier facility in Smyrna, GA uses advanced dental techniques and technologies, including Invisalign treatment, so you can obtain a beautiful, vibrant smile you'll be proud of.

Multiple factors will determine the alignment of your teeth, including hereditary traits, sucking your thumb as a child, missing one or several teeth, or a traumatic injury to your lower face. Misaligned teeth often lead to other oral health problems, including a bad bite (dental malocclusion), abnormal enamel wear, trouble chewing and speaking, plus toothaches and jaw pain. If your MINT dental team notices early signs of one of these issues at your annual examination, we may suggest an orthodontic treatment, like Invisalign teeth straightening.

Invisalign treatment can be good for teens and adults in Smyrna, GA who would like to improve their smile without the appearance and hassle of traditional metal braces. Even though your aligners do need to be in most of the time, they can be removed to brush your teeth and eat, as well as for special events and playing sports. More discreet than traditional braces, most people usually will not know that you're wearing your aligners.

Once your treatment plan is determined, your first Invisalign trays are created from the digital x-rays that are taken at MINT dentistry. When they are ready, you will come back to receive your first aligners and specific care instructions from your dentist. You will need to use your aligners for at least 20 – 22 hours each day for the treatment to work with the goal of removing them only for eating and cleaning. Over time, you will switch to the second set of aligners as they gently shift your teeth into their proper position. You will need to plan to attend follow-up appointments as recommended so our Invisalign provider can review your progress and you can have more digital impressions taken so new sets of aligners can be made. The length of time that you will use Invisalign aligners will vary based on your starting bite and your cosmetic goals, but most individuals undergo Invisalign treatment for an average of 1 – 2 years.

It is important to give time for your gums and jaw to adjust to new tooth positioning, even after you’ve reached your Invisalign goals. Invisalign Vivera® retainers are specially made to hold your teeth in place after your complete your final set of aligning trays. Each retainer is custom made at the Invisalign dental laboratory from digital x-rays taken at our office. Your Invisalign dentist will explain when to wear your retainer and provide instructions for care after it arrives at our MINT dentistry facility in Smyrna, GA. Our team will continuously assess your alignment and bite during your dental exams.

Your Invisalign aligners may be paid by your dental insurance provider based on what type of dental policy you have. Our front office will confirm your benefits and then calculate your costs. MINT dentistry in Smyrna, GA is proud to take a variety of payment methods for patients who don't have dental insurance. During your initial consultation, MINT dentistry’s support staff can go over your estimated bill and ways to make your Invisalign treatment easier to afford, including low-interest medical financing and flexible payment plans. It's important to keep in mind that a healthy smile is an invaluable asset. MINT dentistry is dedicated to helping you achieve this goal in an affordable fashion.
