A Modern Approach to Straightening Teeth
Invisalign offers patients a discreet alternative to traditional braces for improving the alignment of their teeth. Instead of using metal brackets and wires, Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners that gradually guide the teeth toward their planned positions.
At Best Natural Smile, Dr. Ariela Feitelberg evaluates each patient’s teeth, bite, and overall oral health to determine whether Invisalign is an appropriate option. Treatment is individually planned around the patient’s dental anatomy and smile goals.
We provide Invisalign care for patients throughout Santa Monica, Marina Del Rey, Pacific Palisades, West Los Angeles, and surrounding communities.
How Invisalign Works
Each series of aligners is designed to make controlled adjustments to specific teeth. Patients typically move through a sequence of trays, with each new aligner continuing the progression established in the treatment plan.
Because the aligners are removable, patients can take them out for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. This can make maintaining daily oral hygiene more convenient than with fixed orthodontic appliances.
Successful treatment also depends on wearing the aligners according to the recommended schedule.
Treating More Than Crowding
Patients often associate Invisalign with crowded teeth, but clear aligner therapy can address a range of alignment and bite concerns. Depending on the case, Invisalign may be used to improve spacing, certain overbites, underbites, crossbites, and other tooth positioning issues.
A comprehensive evaluation is important because not every orthodontic problem can be treated with aligners alone.
Digital Treatment Planning
Modern digital scanning technology allows us to capture detailed images of the teeth without traditional impression materials. These digital records can support treatment planning and provide a clearer representation of how the teeth may move throughout the process.
Digital technology also allows patients to better understand their proposed treatment before beginning.
Maintaining Your Results
Completing Invisalign is only part of the process. Teeth can naturally shift after orthodontic treatment, which is why retainers are important for maintaining the new alignment.
Regular dental examinations also allow us to monitor the stability of your smile while checking for cavities, gum disease, and other oral health concerns.
At Best Natural Smile, Dr. Feitelberg combines advanced technology with personalized care to help patients achieve a straighter, healthier-looking smile while keeping the treatment experience comfortable and manageable.
