Invisalign® – East Hartford, CT
Metal-Free Braces for a Problem-Free Smile
Many people wish they had straighter teeth but hesitate to commit to braces. That is understandable because braces are so easy for onlookers to notice, and patients often find them to be uncomfortable. Fortunately, clear aligner treatments are often capable of delivering similar results without all the brackets and wires. Here at Comprehensive Dental Associates of Central Connecticut, we are proud to offer Invisalign® in East Hartford. Contact us today to learn more about this innovative and convenient treatment.

How Invisalign® Works
When you come in for your consultation, we will determine if Invisalign® is right for you. If it is, we will use detailed images and impressions of your mouth to design your treatment. Invisalign® will then fabricate a series of clear plastic aligner trays for you. You will wear each aligner for about two weeks before you graduate to the next one. After you work your way through all of your aligners, you can expect to be the owner of a straighter, healthier smile.
Indications for Invisalign®
Invisalign® is able to correct many of the same types of misalignment that traditional metal braces are often used to treat. It may be right for you if you are suffering from any of the following problems:
Crowded Teeth
Crowded teeth overlap one another and are at an increased risk of numerous problems. Invisalign®, along with possible extractions, may be able to give all of your teeth the space they need to thrive.
Gaps Between Teeth
Gaps between teeth can cause gum issues, and many people dislike the way they look. Fortunately, Invisalign® can bring the teeth closer together and eliminate those pesky extra spaces.
Bite Alignment
Overbite, underbite, crossbite, and open bite are all types of malocclusion (bad bite). Invisalign®, usually along with other orthodontic accessories, can address many cases of mild to moderate bite problems.
The Benefits of Invisalign®
Some of the top benefits of Invisalign® include:
- The aligners are not completely invisible, but they are much less noticeable than traditional metal braces.
- The aligners are removable, which means that you can enjoy easy oral hygiene and a life free of dietary restrictions during your treatment period.
- Short appointments. Invisalign® checkups are usually short enough to be completed on your lunch break!
- Fast results. The average treatment time with Invisalign® is 12 months, though it might take more or less time for your unique teeth.
How Much Does Invisalign® Cost?
The cost of Invisalign® depends on how many aligners you need and a few other factors. During your consultation with your dentist in East Hartford, our team will be able to provide you with a price estimate. You can expect to pay at least a few thousand dollars in total. To make the cost of Invisalign® easier to manage, we work with third-party financiers and allow you to get started on your treatment with an attractively low down payment.
