Invisalign in Greensboro, NC

Invisalign is a revolutionary orthodontic treatment that offers a clear and inconspicuous alternative to traditional braces. It is designed to address a variety of dental alignment issues, including crooked teeth, overcrowding, gaps, and overbites. The Invisalign system involves a series of custom-made, transparent aligners that are worn over the teeth. These aligners are created specifically for each patient and overseen by Dr. Martin Avey, DMD, MS, who has been designated by Invisalign as a Diamond Plus Top 1% provider – the highest distinction possible. Patients typically wear each set of aligners for about two weeks before progressing to the next set in the series. As they progress through the aligners, their teeth gradually and gently shift into the desired position. The treatment plan is carefully tailored to the individual’s unique needs and goals, ensuring a precise and effective alignment process.
