With five convenient locations in Shaker Heights, Parma, University Heights, Warrensville Heights, and Willowick, we make it easy to get started on your smile journey.
What Is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a series of custom-made clear aligners that gradually straighten your teeth. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign aligners are removable, nearly invisible, and designed to fit comfortably over your teeth.
How Invisalign Works
Each set of aligners applies gentle pressure to move your teeth into the desired position. You’ll wear a new set approximately every one to two weeks, and your progress will be monitored regularly by our team.
Key Benefits of Invisalign
- Discreet appearance: Nearly invisible aligners allow you to smile confidently during treatment.
- Removable: Eat, drink, brush, and floss without restrictions.
- Comfortable: Smooth plastic aligners reduce irritation to your gums and cheeks.
- Predictable results: Digital treatment planning ensures a precise, customized approach.
Am I a Candidate for Invisalign?
Not everyone is a candidate for Invisalign, but many patients find it ideal for mild to moderate orthodontic issues.
Ideal Candidates
- Teens and adults with crowded, spaced, or misaligned teeth
- Patients who are motivated to wear aligners 20–22 hours per day
- Those seeking a discreet alternative to traditional braces
Consultation Process
During your consultation, our Cleveland orthodontists will:
- Evaluate your teeth and bite
- Discuss your goals and lifestyle needs

Considerations Before Starting Invisalign
While Invisalign offers many benefits, it also requires commitment.
Daily Commitment
Aligners must be worn 20–22 hours daily to achieve the best results. Removing them for extended periods can slow progress.
Lifestyle Adjustments
Avoid chewing gum or eating with aligners in place. You’ll also need to brush and rinse your teeth after meals before reinserting your aligners.
Regular Checkups
In-person or virtual appointments with our team will help monitor your progress and ensure your treatment stays on track. Learn more about our orthodontic treatments and how we support patients throughout the process.
Invisalign vs. Traditional Braces
Both Invisalign and braces are effective, but each has unique advantages.
Invisalign Advantages
- Discreet and removable
- Easier oral hygiene
- Less irritation to gums and cheeks
Braces Advantages
- Can treat more complex cases
- No risk of losing aligners
- Shorter average treatment time for certain conditions
Our Premier Smiles orthodontists can help determine which option is best for your smile.
