Invisalign Clear Braces

A Beautiful Smile without Brackets or Wires

Do you wish you had a straighter, more beautiful smile? Many patients do but are anxious about seeking care because they don’t want to spend a year or more with traditional braces. That’s why Dr. George and the team at Berkshire Oral and Dental Healthcare in Pittsfield offer Invisalign. The Invisalign system uses clear aligner trays to gently straighten teeth without the need for brackets and wires.

Discreet Care in Less Time

There are a couple of reasons for why a patient would want to avoid traditional braces. The first is the time it takes for treatment to be completed. Next to that is the negative impact brackets and wires can have on a professional, mature appearance. Still others might be put off by the frequency of visits required. Invisalign takes care of all that through the use of clear, custom-made aligners. With Invisalign, you can look forward to faster, more comfortable, not to mention more discreet, orthodontic care.

How Does Invisalign Work?

Invisalign uses a series of trays instead of brackets and wires. As your treatment progresses, you’ll move from one tray to another about every two weeks until you’ve worn every tray in your kit. There’s nothing to tighten and you can easily remove your aligners for meals and when you need to brush and floss. That makes treatment with Invisalign more convenient and more comfortable. What’s more, you’ll only need to visit our dental office every four to six weeks for a quick checkup.
