What is Highlands Ranch Invisalign orthodontics? Invisalign is a series of "aligners" (clear retainers) that you change about every two weeks. Each of these Invisalign aligners is manufactured by complex CAD/CAM technology to move your teeth in very small increments (0.25mm or less). This allows us to move your teeth in a very predictable manner.

Benefits of Invisalign from our Highlands Ranch Dental Office
- The Invisalign retainers are removable.
- The retainers made by Invisalign are customized for you by sophisticated CAD/CAM technology.
- Dental patients feel the Invisalign aligners are comfortable to wear and speak with.
- Invisalign has made their aligners clear and "nearly" invisible.
- Aligners made by Invisalign allow the dental patient to brush and floss normally.
- There are no metal brackets, wires, or bands with Invisalign retainers.
Invisalign not only has cosmetic advantages... but it promotes general dental health. Straighter teeth are much easier to brush and floss. It is like trying to paint a picket fence when the pickets are in a neat row or a fence with pickets skewed in all sorts of different directions. Invisalign's advantages "can" include but not limited to:
- Reduction in cavities especially between your teeth because plaque and calculus are easier to remove from straight teeth.
- Your periodontal health (gums) can become healthier. Gum disease (periodontal disease... gingivitis) can be worsened by teeth that are crowded or with wide gaps.
- Since you can remove the Invisalign aligners.... it is much easier to brush and floss when compared to traditional braces.
- With traditional braces you need to use a floss threader to get under the arch wire which most dental patients feel is time consuming...less effective... and frustrating.
- Since Invisalign retainers do not use metal brackets, wires, and rubber bands... food does not trap as much. Invisalign makes your dental cleanings more comfortable and reduces the risk of plaque/calculus buildup... tooth decay (cavities) and gum disease (periodontal disease).
