Invisalign in Riverpark
At Clove Dental in Riverpark, we are dedicated to helping you achieve the confident, radiant smile you deserve. If you are looking for a discreet and effective way to straighten your teeth, Invisalign might be the perfect solution. Our expert team specializes in providing personalized orthodontic care tailored to your needs, ensuring a comfortable and transformative experience.
What Is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a cutting-edge orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually straighten your teeth. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible and made from a smooth, BPA-free plastic material, making them a comfortable and aesthetically pleasing alternative. Each set of aligners is custom-designed to fit snugly over your teeth and gently shift them into their proper positions over time.
Signs You Might Need Invisalign
- Crowded Teeth: Teeth that overlap or are too close together.
- Gaps Between Teeth: Noticeable spaces or uneven gaps between teeth.
- Overbite: Upper front teeth that overlap excessively over the lower teeth.
- Underbite: Lower teeth that extend past the upper teeth.
- Crossbite: Misalignment where some upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth.
- Open Bite: A noticeable space between the upper and lower front teeth when biting.
If any of these issues resonate with you, our experienced team at Clove Dental can determine if Invisalign is the right treatment to help you achieve a straighter smile.

The Invisalign Procedure
1. Initial Consultation
During your first visit, our orthodontic specialists will evaluate your smile and discuss your goals. We’ll determine if Invisalign is the right treatment for you and create a customized plan tailored to your needs.
2. Digital Impressions
Using advanced 3D imaging technology, we’ll create precise digital impressions of your teeth. These images will serve as the blueprint for your custom aligners and allow us to map out your step-by-step treatment plan.
3. Custom Aligner Fabrication
Your aligners will be crafted to fit your teeth perfectly. Each set is designed to apply gentle pressure, gradually guiding your teeth into alignment.
4. Wearing Your Aligners
You’ll wear each set of aligners for about 1-2 weeks, depending on your treatment plan, before moving on to the next set. For optimal results, aligners should be worn 20-22 hours a day, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
5. Regular Check-Ups
We’ll schedule periodic appointments to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan. These visits are typically short and stress-free.
6. Final Results
Once your treatment is complete, you’ll be provided with retainers to help maintain your new smile and prevent teeth from shifting back.
