Invisalign in Vancouver, Wa

Enjoy a discreet treatment with clear aligners that blend naturally with your smile. Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign aligners are barely noticeable, making them a great option for adults and teens who prefer a subtle approach to orthodontic treatment.

Made from smooth, BPA-free plastic, Invisalign trays eliminate irritation from metal brackets and wires. The soft material ensures a snug, comfortable fit, reducing soreness and discomfort often associated with traditional braces.

Eat and drink whatever you like by simply removing your aligners. This means no food restrictions, unlike braces, which require avoiding certain sticky or hard foods that can cause damage.

Brush and floss as usual without the hassle of navigating around metal braces. Since the aligners are removable, there is no risk of plaque buildup around brackets and wires, making it easier to maintain oral health.

With no adjustments required, Invisalign requires fewer in-office visits compared to braces. Patients receive multiple sets of aligners at a time, allowing them to progress through treatment at home with only occasional check-ups with Dr. Jang.

Advanced digital technology maps out a precise treatment plan, giving you a clear preview of how your smile will transform over time.

The average treatment time is between 6-18 months, depending on the complexity of your case. Mild alignment issues may be corrected in as little as six months, while more extensive cases require longer treatment times.

Invisalign is generally comfortable, but you may experience mild pressure or tightness when switching to a new aligner set. This sensation typically fades within a few days as your teeth adjust to the new position.

Yes! Simply remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water. Unlike braces, there are no dietary restrictions, allowing you to continue enjoying all your favorite foods.

For optimal results, aligners should be worn 20-22 hours per day. They should only be removed for eating, drinking (except water), brushing, and flossing.

If you lose an aligner, contact our office immediately. In many cases, you may need to move on to the next set or have a replacement aligner ordered.

Invisalign is ideal for teens and adults looking to correct mild to moderate misalignment, including gaps, overcrowding, and bite issues. A consultation with Dr. Jang will determine if it’s the best option for your unique needs.
