Clear Aligner Treatment Options

We offer Invisalign and clear aligners as a modern way to straighten teeth discreetly—no braces or wires required. Each treatment uses custom-made, clear, removable trays that gently guide your teeth into their proper position.

Braces are not the shiny mouthful of metal of years past. Teeth used to be fully banded. But today, brackets are bonded directly to each tooth's surface. With some people it's possible to place them behind the teeth, making them less noticeable.

These aligners are ideal for mild to moderate alignment concerns, and while they work well for many patients, they are not intended for more complex orthodontic cases that require specialist-level care.

Ready to see how clear aligners can work for your smile? Schedule a consultation with Dr. Lovik Mirzaeian to find the option that’s right for you.

Signs You May Need to See a Fresno Orthodontist

A crooked smile isn’t the only reason to consider clear aligners. You may benefit from Invisalign or clear aligners if you notice:

Crowding

When there isn’t enough space in your mouth for all your teeth, clear aligners can help gently create a more even, comfortable alignment.

Mild Spacing Issues

Small gaps between teeth can be addressed for a more uniform and confident smile.

Minor Bite Adjustments

Clear aligners can improve minor overbite or underbite concerns without the need for specialist-level orthodontic treatment.

If any of these apply to you, scheduling a consultation is the first step toward a healthier, more confident smile.

Frequently Asked Questions

1.) What is Invisalign treatment?

Invisalign is a clear aligner system designed to straighten teeth without traditional metal braces. The treatment uses a series of custom-made, removable trays that gradually shift teeth into proper alignment while remaining discreet and comfortable.

2.) How does Invisalign work?

The Invisalign process begins with digital scans, x-rays, impressions, and photographs of your teeth. These records are used to create a customized 3D treatment plan that maps the exact movement of your teeth. You will then receive a series of aligners that are changed approximately every two weeks to continue progressing your smile.

3.) What dental problems can Invisalign correct?

Invisalign may help treat:

Crooked teeth
Crowded teeth
Small gaps between teeth
Mild overbites
Mild underbites
Crossbites
Minor bite alignment issues

More complex orthodontic problems may require traditional braces or specialist orthodontic treatment.

4.) Who is a good candidate for Invisalign?

Patients with mild to moderate orthodontic concerns are often good candidates for Invisalign. Adults and teens who want a more discreet alternative to braces frequently choose clear aligners. A consultation with Dr. Lovik Mirzaeian can determine whether Invisalign is appropriate for your specific needs.

5.) How long does Invisalign treatment take?

Treatment length varies depending on the complexity of the case. Many adult patients complete Invisalign treatment in approximately 12 months, while teen treatment times are often similar to traditional braces. Some patients begin seeing noticeable improvements within just a few months.

6.) How many hours per day should I wear Invisalign aligners?

For optimal results, aligners should typically be worn between 20 and 22 hours each day. They should only be removed while eating, drinking beverages other than water, brushing, and flossing.

7.) How often do I switch to a new Invisalign tray?

Most patients move to a new set of aligners about every two weeks. Each new tray gradually shifts the teeth closer to their ideal position.

8.) How often are Invisalign checkup appointments?

Patients usually return for progress visits approximately every six weeks so the dental team can monitor tooth movement and provide the next series of aligners.

9.) Is Invisalign painful?

Most patients experience mild pressure or tightness when beginning a new aligner tray, which is a normal sign that the aligners are working. Compared to traditional braces, Invisalign is generally considered more comfortable because there are no brackets or wires irritating the cheeks or gums.

10.) Are Invisalign aligners noticeable?

Invisalign aligners are made from clear plastic and are designed to be nearly invisible while worn. Most people will not notice you are wearing them during daily activities, work, or social interactions.

11.) Can I eat normally during Invisalign treatment?

Yes. Since Invisalign aligners are removable, you can take them out before meals and continue enjoying the foods you normally eat without the dietary restrictions often associated with braces.

12.) How do I clean my Invisalign aligners?

Aligners should be cleaned daily using lukewarm water and a soft toothbrush or Invisalign cleaning products. Keeping aligners clean helps prevent staining, odors, and bacteria buildup.

13.) Will Invisalign affect my speech?

Some patients notice a slight lisp or speech adjustment during the first few days of treatment. Most people adapt quickly and return to speaking normally after becoming accustomed to the aligners.

14.) What are the advantages of Invisalign compared to braces?

Invisalign offers several benefits, including:

Nearly invisible appearance
Removable trays
Greater comfort
Easier brushing and flossing
No food restrictions
Fewer emergency visits caused by broken wires or brackets

Traditional braces may still be recommended for more severe orthodontic cases.

15.) Can teenagers use Invisalign?

Yes. Invisalign can be an effective treatment option for teens who want straighter teeth without traditional braces. Teen Invisalign treatment times are often comparable to braces while allowing for improved aesthetics and convenience.

16.) What happens during my Invisalign consultation?

During your consultation, Dr. Lovik Mirzaeian will evaluate your teeth, bite, and oral health. X-rays, impressions, photos, and digital scans may be taken to determine whether Invisalign is the right treatment for your smile goals.

17.) Can Invisalign improve oral health?

Straighter teeth are often easier to clean properly, which may help reduce plaque buildup, tooth decay, and gum disease. Correcting mild bite issues may also improve chewing comfort and overall oral function.

18.) How much does Invisalign cost in Fresno?

The cost of Invisalign varies depending on the complexity of your case and treatment length. According to information referenced on the practice website, average Invisalign treatment costs may range from approximately $3,400 to $8,500 or more, depending on individual needs.

19.) Is Invisalign covered by dental insurance?

Some dental insurance plans provide orthodontic coverage that may partially apply toward Invisalign treatment. The dental office can help review your benefits and discuss available payment options during your consultation.
