Many people have to deal with issues involving the placement of their teeth within their mouth. This can be overcrowding, spaces between teeth, even a misalignment of the jaw itself. A Winchester family dentist or orthodontist can resolve many of these problems through the use of traditional braces.
Another option in many cases is using the Invisalign system to be comfortably and discreetly fix the issue. Our office at Amherst Dental Practice can provide you with Invisalign to resolve problems with the spacing, function, and appearance of your teeth.

Invisalign offers a degree of comfort and safety that you may not experience with traditional braces. Invisalign uses a series of clear, comfortable-to-wear aligners to gently straighten teeth over time.
Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign is discreet and removable, so there are no restrictions to what you can eat or drink during treatment. Furthermore, the absence of wires and brackets means you'll have an easier time brushing and flossing during your treatment.
Patients receive a new set of aligners every two weeks. With each new set,
the teeth will gradually move into the final position.
Invisalign can provide a solution for:
The total length of treatment varies from patient to patient, but typically is between nine and fifteen months. During treatment, patients will typically visit their dentist every four to six weeks to check their progress.

Invisalign can be used to treat many orthodontic issues, but it may not be suitable for everyone. It's best to consult with an Invisalign provider to determine if Invisalign is the right treatment option for you.
Patients may experience some discomfort or pressure when they first begin wearing a new set of aligners, but this typically goes away within a few days. In general, Invisalign is less painful than traditional braces.
Yes, it's important to wear a retainer after Invisalign treatment to maintain the position of the teeth. Most patients wear their retainer at night.
One of the great things about Invisalign is that is a customizable solution to dealing with many issues. Since they are able to be taken out when you eat and placed back in, there is a level of convenience that traditional braces can’t offer.
