Invisalign Clovis

The Newest and Proven Alternative to Braces

Invisalign Clovis is designed to straighten and align your teeth in a discreet and more convenient way. There are no brackets or wires that can poke and irritate your mouth, or distract from the beauty of your smile. Invisalign is a smooth, easily removable plastic aligner. It is easy to clean and allows you to eat whatever you want!

How it works:

1. We Create a 3-D Image of Your Teeth

Dr. Mirzaeian will take x-rays, pictures and impressions of your teeth, which Invisalign will use to create a digital 3-D image of them. From these images Dr. Mirzaeian will map out a precise treatment plan, including the exact movements of your teeth. Using this same technology, Dr. Mirzaeian will even be able to show you a virtual representation of how your teeth will move with each stage of treatment.

2. Receive Your Custom Aligners Based On Your Personalized Treatment Plan

Based on your individual treatment plan, a series of custom-made, clear aligners is then created specifically for you. These aligners are made of a smooth, comfortable, BPA-free plastic that won’t irritate your cheeks and gums like traditional metal braces often do. Simply wear them throughout the day, and remove them when you eat or to brush and floss your teeth. As you wear each set of aligners, your teeth gently and gradually begin to shift into place. And because they’re virtually invisible, most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them.

3. Wear a New Aligner Every Two Weeks

Approximately every two weeks, you will begin wearing a new set of aligners, advancing you to the next stage of your treatment. To monitor your progress, you will also have occasional checkups with Dr. Mirzaeian usually only every six weeks or so. At every stage, you will be able to see how much closer you are to having the smile that reflects the real you. While every case is unique to each patient, treatment typically takes approximately a year for adults. For teens, the length of treatment is comparable to that of braces, but since your teeth won’t be covered by wires and brackets, you’ll be able to see improvement much sooner. For best results and a timely outcome, you should wear your aligners for 20 to 22 hours per day, throughout your entire treatment.

Why Patients Choose Invisalign

Virtually Invisible

Clear aligners let you straighten your teeth without announcing it to everyone. For working adults and older teens, that is usually the deciding factor.

Removable and Easy to Live With

Take them out to eat, brush and floss normally, then put them back. No food restrictions and no awkward cleaning around brackets and wires.

More Comfortable Than Braces

Smooth plastic instead of metal means no cut cheeks or poking wires, and adjustments feel like gentle pressure rather than tightening.

A Plan You Can See Upfront

Digital planning shows the expected path of your teeth before you begin, so you know roughly where you are heading and how long it should take.

How Invisalign Works, Step by Step

Consultation. Dr. Mirzaeian examines your teeth and bite and confirms whether Invisalign is the right fit for your case.
Digital scan and plan. We map the movement of your teeth and produce your custom sequence of aligners.
Wearing your aligners. You change to a new set as directed, wearing them 20 to 22 hours a day, with brief check-ins to confirm progress.
Retention. Once the teeth are where they should be, a retainer keeps them there. This step is what protects the result long term.

Frequently Asked Questions About Invisalign

How long does Invisalign treatment take?

Most patients complete treatment in about 12 to 18 months, though simpler cases can finish sooner. Dr. Mirzaeian gives you an estimated timeline at your consultation after reviewing your teeth.

Will people be able to tell I am wearing aligners?

The aligners are clear and fit closely over your teeth, so most people will not notice them in normal conversation. This is the main reason adults choose Invisalign over traditional braces.

Are the aligners uncomfortable?

There is usually mild pressure for a day or two each time you change to a new set. That feeling means the teeth are moving, and it settles quickly. There are no metal brackets or wires to irritate your cheeks.

How many hours a day do I need to wear them?

Aligners should be worn 20 to 22 hours a day for treatment to stay on schedule. You take them out to eat, to drink anything other than water, and to brush and floss.

Can I eat normally during treatment?

Yes. Because the aligners are removable, there are no food restrictions. You simply take them out to eat, then brush before putting them back in.

Is Invisalign suitable for everyone?

It works well for crowding, gaps, and many bite issues, but very complex cases may still be better treated with braces. A consultation is the only way to know for certain which option suits your teeth.
