Invisalign treatment in Midtown Manhattan

Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, clear plastic aligners to gradually move your teeth into a better position. Unlike traditional braces, there are no brackets cemented to your teeth and no wires to tighten. The aligners are smooth, nearly invisible when worn, and removable, which means you take them out to eat, brush, and floss without any of the restrictions that come with metal braces.

You wear each set of aligners for one to two weeks before moving to the next in the series. Most patients wear their aligners between 20 and 22 hours a day. The more consistent you are, the more efficient your treatment will be.

What Invisalign can treat

Invisalign is effective for a wide range of alignment issues in teens and adults whose jaw has finished growing. The doctors at Rockefeller Dentistry can evaluate whether Invisalign is right for your specific situation. Common issues it addresses include gaps between teeth, overcrowded teeth, overbite, and crossbite.

Straighter teeth are also healthier teeth. When your teeth are properly aligned, bacteria have fewer places to settle along the gumline, which reduces your risk of decay and gum disease over time. Invisalign can also reduce excessive wear caused by misalignment.

What to expect at Rockefeller Dentistry

Your treatment begins with a consultation where the doctors evaluate the health of your teeth and gums and discuss your alignment goals. Your aligners are custom-made based on your individual needs, and the number of trays you receive depends on the condition of your teeth and the outcome you are working toward.

Throughout your treatment, the doctors monitor your progress to make sure your teeth are moving as planned and your results stay on track. The practice also offers a teeth whitening kit at the conclusion of your Invisalign treatment, so you finish with both a straighter and a brighter smile.

The experience and training of the doctors overseeing your treatment matters as much as the technology itself.

A team with the training to get alignment right

Straightening teeth correctly requires understanding how the bite functions, not just how teeth look. Dr. Gainor's completion of the Pankey Institute restorative continuum and the Spear Institute mastery program, combined with his Master of the Academy of General Dentistry designation held by less than 2% of dentists nationwide, means the doctors overseeing your Invisalign treatment understand bite mechanics at a level most general dentists do not.

Dr. Rausch is a Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry, the American College of Dentistry, the International College of Dentistry, and the Pierre Fauchard Academy. Together, the team at Rockefeller Dentistry brings a standard of clinical training to Invisalign cases that goes well beyond fitting aligners.
