Invisalign
Dr. Haque is experienced in Invisalign, the world's most recognized clear aligner brand.
​
Invisalign treatment is a modern and discreet alternative to traditional metal braces, designed to help patients achieve a straighter, healthier smile with comfort and convenience. Using a series of custom-made, clear aligners, Invisalign gradually shifts the teeth into their proper positions over time. Because the aligners are nearly invisible, many patients—especially adults and teens—prefer Invisalign for its aesthetic appeal and subtle appearance during treatment.
What to Expect
The process begins with a digital scan or impression of the patient’s teeth, which allows Dr. Haque to create a personalized treatment plan. Using advanced 3D technology, patients can even preview how their smile will look once treatment is complete. Tooth-colored attachments are bonded to your teeth that act as "handles" for the aligners to grip onto. Each set of aligners is worn for about one to two weeks before switching to the next in the series, with small, precise adjustments occurring with each change.
​
One of the biggest advantages of Invisalign is its flexibility. The aligners are removable, allowing patients to eat, drink, brush, and floss without the restrictions that come with braces. This helps maintain better oral hygiene and prevents food from getting trapped around wires or brackets. However, for the best results, patients should wear the aligners 20–22 hours per day and follow their dentist’s instructions closely.
How Long is Treatment?
Invisalign treatment times vary depending on the complexity of each case, but many patients begin seeing noticeable improvements within a few months. When worn as directed, Invisalign can effectively correct common alignment issues such as crowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. Overall, Invisalign offers a comfortable, convenient, and virtually invisible way to achieve a beautifully aligned smile—helping patients feel more confident both during and after treatment.
Retainers
Orthodontic retainers are custom-made appliances designed to maintain the position of teeth after braces or Invisalign treatment. Once teeth have been aligned, they naturally tend to shift back toward their original positions—a process called relapse. Retainers prevent this by holding the teeth in their new, corrected alignment while the surrounding bone and tissues stabilize. There are two main types of retainers: removable ones, typically made of clear plastic or acrylic with wires, and fixed (or bonded) retainers, which are discreetly attached to the back of the teeth. Wearing retainers as directed is essential for preserving the results of orthodontic treatment and ensuring a straight, confident smile for years to come.
