The aligners are gentle on teeth and the level of discomfort you feel will be very mild, if at all.<\/p><p>Invisalign is a proprietary system, still under patent. As the only major system of its type Invisalign is able to charge a price premium, so it can be quite costly if you need to wear the system for 12 months or more to enhance your smile.<\/p><p>After treatment you may also have to wear a retainer at night to continue to support the new position of your teeth.<\/p><p>Invisalign cannot correct severe problems, so not everyone will have the option of choosing the system. Your orthodontist will let you know if you\u2019re a candidate.<\/p><p>Invisalign is the best alternative for an invisible treatment system that is very comfortable to wear.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-36f2ae8c\" data-id=\"36f2ae8c\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a90a8bb elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"a90a8bb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"350\" height=\"438\" src=\"https:\/\/clearchoiceorthodontist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/invisalign.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-511\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/clearchoiceorthodontist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/invisalign.png 350w, https:\/\/clearchoiceorthodontist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/invisalign-240x300.png 240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7667ed7 elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7667ed7\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;,&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d02c1c2\" data-id=\"d02c1c2\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dad64af elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"dad64af\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Want to know more?<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-36779c7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"36779c7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Click on the type of Braces you're interested in to find out more<\/h4>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-4562035 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4562035\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-wider\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-0989a6f\" data-id=\"0989a6f\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0dcc608 elementor-position-top elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-box\" data-id=\"0dcc608\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;motion_fx_motion_fx_scrolling&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;motion_fx_opacity_effect&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;motion_fx_opacity_range&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;%&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:{&quot;start&quot;:10,&quot;end&quot;:30}},&quot;motion_fx_opacity_direction&quot;:&quot;out-in&quot;,&quot;motion_fx_opacity_level&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;motion_fx_devices&quot;:[&quot;desktop&quot;,&quot;tablet&quot;,&quot;mobile&quot;]}\" data-widget_type=\"image-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*!
