Invisalign in Point Loma
Invisalign offers a discreet, comfortable way to straighten your teeth without traditional braces. At Liberty Station Orthodontics, Invisalign treatment is led by board-certified orthodontists with extensive experience planning precise, customized results.
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a clear aligner system that straightens teeth using a series of custom-made, removable aligners. These aligners gently move your teeth into better alignment over time while fitting seamlessly into your daily life.
At Liberty Station Orthodontics, Invisalign treatment is planned and monitored by board-certified orthodontists who are Invisalign Diamond Providers. We use advanced digital technology to create highly accurate treatment plans and show patients a preview of their potential results. Invisalign is a popular option for adolescents, teens and adults who want effective treatment without the look of braces.

Frequently asked questions
FAQ
Treatment time varies depending on the complexity of your case, but many patients complete Invisalign treatment in 9-18 months. The doctors will provide a personalized estimate during your consultation.
Invisalign can treat many mild to moderate orthodontic issues, and in some cases more complex concerns. As Invisalign Diamond Providers, our doctors carefully evaluate each case to determine the best treatment option.
For best results, aligners should be worn 22+ hours per day and removed only for eating, drinking (except water), brushing, and flossing.
