Invisalign – Indian Land, SC
Get Gorgeous Results Without the Metal
Although metal braces continue to be reliable, safe, and effective, they leave a bit to be desired in terms of appearance. In fact, many image-conscious teens and adults didn’t pursue orthodontic treatment for that exact reason! If that’s the case for you, then you’ll be happy to hear that there’s a way to achieve the same beautiful results without the noticeable brackets and wires: Invisalign. To read more about it, read on or get in touch with us to schedule an appointment.

How Invisalign Works
Instead of guiding your teeth into proper alignment with metal brackets and wires, Invisalign uses a series of custom-made trays. Each one should be worn for 20-22 hours a day and for 1-2 weeks at a time. Periodically throughout your treatment, you’ll come to our office so we can make sure your teeth are moving as anticipated. Since the average treatment timeline is only 12-18 months, it won’t take long for you to start to see improvements!
Who Can Invisalign Help?
Patients are often surprised to hear this, but Invisalign can correct several common orthodontic problems, including overbites. So, don’t just assume that traditional braces are your only path to a straight smile! At your consultation, we can determine if you’re a good candidate for clear aligners, but you can also read on to learn more about who Invisalign can help.
Crowded Teeth
Crowded teeth don’t just take a toll on your self-esteem; they take a toll on your oral health. For that reason, we recommend exploring your treatment options, like Invisalign. If you’re a good candidate, then we can shift your teeth into their ideal positions with a custom series of aligners. Since they are crafted from smooth, see-through plastic, no unwanted attention will be drawn to your smile in the process!
Gaps Between Teeth
If you have a noticeable gap between your two front teeth, we have good news: Invisalign can help! If we determine that you’re a good candidate for clear aligners, then we can gently bring your teeth back together, creating a healthier and even more beautiful smile. Usually, the entire process only takes 12-18 months (while traditional braces can take 2+ years).
Overbite
Several problems can arise if your upper teeth jut out beyond your lower ones more than they should, including trouble enunciating clearly. If you’ve been struggling with this bite problem and wondering if Invisalign can fix overbites, we have good news: the answer is “yes!” The easiest way to find out if you’re a candidate is by scheduling a consultation at our Indian Land dental office.
Underbite
Another common bite problem is an underbite, which is when the lower teeth sit in front of the upper ones. Unfortunately, even relatively mild cases can lead to trouble smiling confidently, chewing properly, and enunciating clearly, which is why we recommend scheduling a consultation with one of our dedicated cosmetic dentists sooner rather than later.
Crossbite
Are you struggling with a mild to moderate crossbite? If so, you’ll be happy to hear that, in addition to improving the alignment of your teeth, Invisalign can improve the alignment of your bite! So, don’t hesitate to schedule a consultation with us. The sooner you do, the sooner we can find out if you’re a good candidate for clear aligner treatment.
Open Bite
When you bite down, are your upper and lower teeth able to meet evenly? If they can’t because there is a space between them, then you likely have an open bite. Invisalign clear aligners have proven to be an effective solution with the help of other orthodontic accessories, like buttons and rubber bands. That means there’s a good chance your orthodontic treatment won’t involve any metal at all.
The Benefits of Invisalign
To date, more than 17 million patients have chosen Invisalign because:
- The aligners are barely noticeable
- There aren’t any dietary restrictions
- Taking care of your smile is easy
- There are fewer check-in visits
- The average treatment timeline is shorter
