treatment.

that straightens teeth without the use
of traditional metal braces. Invisalign
is a series of custom-made clear
braces that cover your teeth and
gently pull them into the proper
position over time. They are clear and
can be taken on and off, they are less
noticeable than traditional metal
braces.
