Invisalign ® Clear Braces in Homer Glen, IL

Many adults and teens hesitate to straighten their teeth with metal braces due to their highly visible nature and inconvenience. While traditional braces are appropriate for children and extreme malocclusion, Invisalign® clear braces are highly effective in most cases of dental misalignment.

The most important aspect of achieving a uniform smile with clear braces is the amount of experience the provider has with this innovative system.Invisalign clear braces

Partnering with Invisalign

General dentists who offer Invisalign aligners rely completely on the Invisalign lab to design the aligners and facilitate treatment. While they will monitor your progress, they contribute little to the actual process.

At Dentistry and Orthodontics For the Entire Family, Dr. Mary Ellen Hoye uses a digital scanner to obtain a detailed impression of your teeth and bite. Because of her expertise in orthodontics, she is able to note any subtle variances in tooth position that may be missed by Invisalign. Dr. Hoye works closely with the Invisalign lab to ensure that you or your loved one's unique needs are met with personalized treatment.

Invisalign Clear Braces Treat Many Orthodontic Issues

Like traditional braces, Invisalign can treat the following:

  • Misaligned Teeth
  • Crowded Teeth
  • Under-bite
  • Over-bite
  • Cross-bite
