The Technology Behind Invisalign ®

You may wonder what goes on at Invisalign ® between the time that your dentist takes impressions of your teeth and when you receive your first set of aligners.

State of the art computer technology plays a vital role in the process. In fact, Invisalign's ® high-volume, customized manufacturing process is the first of its kind in the world.

The diagram below shows some of the ways advanced computer technology fits into the Invisalign ®.

BOTOX® Cosmetic is a non-surgical, physician-administered aesthetic treatment for moderate to severe frown lines between the brows in people ages 18 to 65. BOTOX® Cosmetic works by reducing the contractions of the muscles that cause those persistent frown lines that have developed over time.

Many factors, including dietary habits (drinking coffee, tea, soda, and red wine) and certain medications, affect the whiteness of your smile. Tooth whitening is an affordable and effective way to combat common causes of tooth discoloration, while boosting your self-confidence and improving your appearance.

Mouthwash Is Important, Too!

Brushing and flossing may not be enough. The ADA now recommends using an antimicrobial mouthwash to reduce plaque and prevent gingivitis.
