Like glaciers and tectonic plates, teeth are slowly yet surely on the move as they attempt to turn their host’s mouth into frozen tundra and then rip it apart like a bite-size Pangaea.

As an Invisalign Elite Preferred Provider, Dr. Ryan Molis helms each orthodontic treatment wielding a level of expertise obtained by only 1% of Invisalign providers in the country. The Invisalign process straightens crooked chompers with a combination of highly advanced, 3-D computer graphics and the spells of old-fashioned orthodontia, eschewing cumbersome braces for clear, removable aligners that are virtually invisible to the unclothed eye. An initial exam, including x-rays, photos, and impressions of your mouth terrain, paves the way for a flurry of calibrated teeth sheaths that are designed to slowly shift walnut crackers into perfect alignment. Checkup visits will ensure the pearl repositioning procedure is progressing as planned. View some Invisalign FAQs here.

Depending on the client’s teeth, as few as 12 or as many as 48 separate aligners will need to be worn for a period of 9–15 months, before the straightening effect finally self-actuates in a sudden burst of pink smoke and slobber. Aligners are typically swapped out for a new set every two weeks, and should only be removed when eating, brushing, flossing, or modeling a finely clenched jaw.
