Invisible Braces. Visible Results – Invisalign®
Wishing for straight, properly aligned teeth, but the thought of metal braces stopping you? Not anymore. Warwick Dental has just the right solution for people like you. Clear, discreet aligners that are custom-made of soft plastic. Result? You get to straighten your teeth without any added hassle and discomfort. We are talking about Invisalign®. It is now easier to achieve your dream smile.
One of the best things about it? These clear aligners are practically invisible, so no one will ever even know you're undergoing treatment. There are no dietary restrictions or daily lifestyle restrictions. Just take them out to eat, brush, or floss, then put them back in, and just keep on going toward your brighter, more confident smile.
When Should You Look into Invisalign® ?
Not sure if Invisalign® is the best for you? Lots of patients wait to begin this treatment because they're not sure about their case or what aligners can really do. If any of the below sounds like you, you might want to schedule a consultation with us:
- Mild to moderate crowding of teeth
- Small gaps or spacing issues
- Bite problems like overbite, underbite, or crossbite
- Shifting teeth after wearing braces in the past
Invisalign® is for those who want a straighter smile without drawing attention to the fact that they're undergoing any dental treatment. The dentist will assess your bite, alignment, and general oral health to determine if Invisalign® is your ideal option.
Why Patients Love Invisalign® for Straight Teeth?
Clear aligners aren't only a discreet means of straightening teeth; they're a lifestyle-friendly solution that offers control, comfort, and confidence. Here's why Invisalign in Oklahoma City, OK, is such a high-demand treatment at Warwick Dental:
- Nearly Invisible: The transparent trays are virtually indistinguishable from your teeth, so you can show off your smile and speak easily without drawing attention to your treatment.
- Removable When Necessary: Eat the foods you love, brush and floss normally. The only precaution you need to take is to remove your aligners before these jobs.
- No Metal or Wires: That translates to fewer cuts, pokes, and irritation of the inside of your mouth.
- Smarter Planning: Thanks to advanced digital imaging, you can see how your smile will look before you even begin your treatment.
- Fewer Office Visits: No need for frequent wire tightening; your follow-up appointments are quick and spaced out.
Selecting Invisalign is not merely a matter of how your smile appears; it's also a matter of your comfort, your availability, and your ultimate dental health.
How Does the Invisalign® Process Work?
To start your Invisalign® journey, we will take photos of your teeth and face, as well as take dental impressions and x-rays. This information will be sent to Invisalign® with instructions from your dentist on the desired outcome. Invisalign® will then use the impressions to create a 3D model of your teeth. When the trays are finalized, they will be shipped to Warwick Dental. You will need to wear a set of trays for two weeks at a time for around two years, or however long your dentist recommends.
Invisalign® vs. Braces—what's the Difference?
There are significant differences between Invisalign® aligners and braces. We have listed the most prominent ones below. Ultimately, choosing one over the other is up to you. However, introducing clear aligners in the market has brought a more efficient and less painful way of straightening teeth.
• Materials: Invisalign® aligners are made of clear transparent plastic, whereas braces use wires and brackets.
• Removability: Invisalign® aligners can be removed by the user anytime, while a professional can only remove braces.
• Food Restrictions: Invisalign® allows users to eat whatever they like and maintain their oral care routine as usual. Braces restrict what users can eat safely and require special maintenance and care.
• Injury Risks: Invisalign® aligners do not pose any injury risks, while braces can cause cuts and other injuries.
• Visibility: Invisalign® aligners are hardly noticeable by others, whereas braces are almost impossible to miss.
Our Invisalign® Process at Warwick Dental
At our dental practice, our dentists do not employ the same approach to every patient. For us, everyone is different, and so are their smiles. For every patient, we make a separate, personalized Invisalign treatment plan that can best suit their smile goals and dental condition. Here's what you can expect if you decide to visit us:
- Personal Consultation: The process begins with a one-to-one visit with our Invisalign dentist. Before starting anything, understanding your dental condition is crucial. This is a vital step in our custom treatment plan. We listen to what you think, understand your concerns, and suggest what is best for you.
- Digital Impressions & Smile Simulation: Using advanced 3D scanning, we’ll take accurate digital images of your teeth. With these, we’ll map out a step-by-step preview of how your smile will gradually shift over time.
- Getting Your Aligners: Once your custom trays are ready, you’ll start wearing the first set. Each aligner will make small, precise changes to your teeth. Most patients wear their trays 20–22 hours daily, switching to a new set every 1–2 weeks.
- Check-In Appointments: We’ll schedule short, periodic visits to ensure everything is moving as planned. These check-ins allow us to monitor progress and hand over the next sets of aligners.
- Your Final Smile: The total time period might vary, but mostly people complete their Invisalign journey in 6 to 12 months. Once you complete your schedule, you will have an entirely new smile and a new you to show off.

Who Can Use Invisalign®?
How Much Does Invisalign® Cost?
The cost of Invisalign® starts at $3,499. It's similar to that of traditional metal braces. However, the cost may vary depending on two factors:
• Insurance coverage: Most insurance plans cover Invisalign® treatment the same way they cover metal braces. However, insurance companies rarely cover Invisalign® treatment for cosmetic reasons. It is always best to check with your insurance provider to know more.
• Length and complexity of treatment: Invisalign® treatment involves a series of clear aligners that are changed every couple of weeks. Therefore, the cost may vary depending on how many aligners your treatment plan requires.
If you have any questions regarding the cost of treatment, please feel free to contact our office. We will gladly discuss your insurance coverage or other payment options.
