Invisalign Dentist Dr. Brooks Straightens OK City Smiles

millionthYou’ve probably heard about Invisalign clear braces on TV or from a friend. The high demand for an alternative to metal braces and the enormous success of Invisalign has made it one of the most popular dental treatments available. From his OKC dental office, Dr. Brooks proudly offers Invisalign to straighten crooked, crowded, and awkwardly spaced teeth for our adult patients.

What is Invisalign?
The Invisalign system consists of a series of custom-made, acrylic trays molded to fit the contours of your teeth. Each tray moves your teeth in increments, and you’ll change trays about every two weeks. Dr. Brooks monitors your progress to ensure your smile is reaching its full potential.

Will anyone know I’m wearing braces?
Invisalign clear braces are nothing like traditional metal braces. The clear aligners fit flush against your teeth, and they’re virtually undetectable. Even upon close inspection, most people won’t be able to tell you’re wearing the Invisalign aligners.

Can I take the aligners out?
Yes! Take the aligners out to eat, brush, floss, and for special events. For optimal results, you’ll need to wear them about 22 hours a day.

How long will I have to wear Invisalign clear braces?
Every patient has different needs, but on average, patients complete treatment in 12 to 18 months. That’s half the time of traditional metal braces.

How do I get started?
Visit Dr. Brooks OKC dental office for a consultation. Most adults are candidates for Invisalign clear braces. He’ll start by taking photos and impressions of your teeth. In a few weeks, your custom aligners will be ready for you to begin wearing.

Dr. Brooks’ Oklahoma City dental office serves Edmond and the surrounding areas with general and cosmetic dentistry for patients of all ages. Call today to reserve a personal consultation for yourself or a member of your family.
