As more adults seek effective orthodontic solutions, we recognize that Invisalign aligners offer a discreet and clinically proven alternative to traditional braces. At Bulverde North Family Dental in Spring Branch, TX, we offer Gold+ Invisalign treatment for adults, teens, and even children—providing custom-fitted, nearly invisible trays that correct misalignments while preserving oral hygiene and minimizing dietary restrictions. The advanced SmartTrack material and digital treatment protocols enable comfortable and efficient tooth movement. Let’s explore why so many adults are choosing Invisalign with us.
Why Adults Prefer Invisalign
Thanks to modern orthodontic advances, increasing numbers of adults are opting for Invisalign due to its near-invisibility, comfort, and effectiveness. These clear aligners make it possible to maintain a natural look during treatment, which is especially appealing to professionals and parents. Their removability supports easy brushing, flossing, and full access to favorite foods. Plus, with digital treatment planning, our team can tailor the aligners to each patient’s dental structure for optimal results. Studies consistently show high satisfaction and successful outcomes when used as directed—typically 22 hours per day.
How Invisalign Works
Invisalign utilizes custom-made trays crafted from SmartTrack material to deliver gentle, precise pressure that guides teeth into alignment. At Bulverde North, we start with a digital scan to simulate and plan every step of the treatment journey. Patients wear each set of aligners for about 22 hours daily, switching to the next set every one to two weeks. This reliable system ensures consistent and predictable movements—with visible progress along the way.
Invisalign vs. Traditional Braces
While both Invisalign and braces effectively treat various malocclusions, Invisalign offers several clear advantages for adults. Its transparent design promotes discretion, and being removable means cleaning and eating aren’t restricted. With digital planning, Invisalign can often complete treatment faster—sometimes months quicker than traditional wires. Overall, it’s a modern solution designed for comfort and convenience.
What Invisalign Treats
Invisalign has proven effective in correcting a wide range of issues common among adults—including overbites, underbites, crowding, spacing, and crossbites. The customizable approach handles mild to moderate cases efficiently, with treatment timelines ranging from 6 to 24 months depending on complexity. It’s also eligible for many insurance plans and HSA/FSA coverage, making it accessible to many families.
Treatment Process at Bulverde North
At your first visit, Dr. Frei conducts a digital scan or traditional impression. We then craft a personalized treatment plan using Invisalign software. Under Dr. Frei’s supervision, you’ll wear your SmartTrack aligners 22 hours each day, switching sets every 1–2 weeks. Follow-ups every 6–8 weeks allow us to track progress, make adjustments, and ensure smooth, predictable results.
Lifestyle Advantages for Busy Adults
Invisalign aligns with adult lifestyles by offering discretion and flexibility. Whether at work, dining out, or traveling, you can remove aligners as needed—without interrupting your treatment. With a discreet appearance, easy oral care, and a plan designed around your life, Invisalign helps you achieve a confident smile without sacrificing routine.
Maintaining Aligners & Oral Health
Success with Invisalign depends on diligent care. To stay on track, remember to:
- Clean aligners daily with Invisalign-approved cleaner
- Brush and floss after each meal before reinserting aligners
- Avoid staining foods and drinks while wearing
- Switch trays on schedule, typically every 7–14 days
- Attend routine checkups to monitor treatment progress
With proper care, Invisalign can achieve excellent results—and keep your oral health in top condition.
