Invisalign®

Adult "invisible braces" (which are not really braces at all, but clear plastic retainers) are a new technique for adults to obtain the results of braces without wearing braces! This technique, which is effective for both crowding and spacing cases, utilizes a series of retainers (computer generated or lab constructed) that are worn sequentially until the desired correction is achieved.
