Invisalign FAQs

Home » Invisalign » Invisalign FAQs

There’s never been a better time to straighten your teeth with the most advanced clear aligner in the world. NC Tooth Docs Orthodontics & Kids Dentistry is proud to be a provider of Invisalign clear aligners, which give you a clear, convenient, and comfortable option to achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.

What Is Invisalign Treatment?

Invisalign is a series of proprietary clear aligners that change shape over time to straighten your teeth. Tooth-colored attachments are placed on your teeth as “grips” and are used to help the clear aligners push your teeth into the proper position and alignment. Invisalign aligners need to be worn for 22 hours per day. You can remove them to eat, drink, brush, and floss.

Why Invisalign Treatment?

Faster treatment: With weekly aligner changes, you’re on your way to the smile you want even faster. Depending on your response to treatment, particularly in mature adults, we may consider longer periods between aligner changes.

Proven results: SmartTrack® material and SmartForce® features are clinically proven to improve control of tooth movement with Invisalign clear aligners

Better fit: Aligners made from SmartTrack material are comfortable, fit well, and are easy to put on and take off.

Effective: Invisalign clear aligners can treat a wide range of teeth-straightening conditions, including crossbites, crowding, open bites, gapped teeth, overbites, and underbites.

Virtually invisible: Most people won’t even know you’re going through treatment because Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible!

Comfortable: Invisalign clear aligner trays are not only smooth and comfortable to wear, but they’re also removable. That means you can continue doing all the things you normally would, from brushing and flossing to eating whatever you like.

Convenient: Invisalign treatment is ideal for your busy schedule since you only need to visit NC Tooth Docs Orthodontics & Kids Dentistry every eight to 12 weeks

How Long Does Invisalign Take?

The length of time it takes to achieve your ideal smile is completely dependent on the case. Limited orthodontic cases with Invisalign can take four to nine months, while comprehensive orthodontic cases can range from one to two years. Every case is unique; the more complex the case and the more bite correction that needs to be done, the longer the case will be.

To aid in achieving our patients’ new smiles faster, Dr. Lupinetti offers acceleration devices PROPEL Orthodontics VPro5 and AcceleDent® Aura to decrease treatment times by up to 30%.

Is Invisalign Right For Me?

There are no exclusions with Invisalign. Invisalign is just a tool utilized to move the teeth. The main factor in whether or not Invisalign can be effective for you is the orthodontist who uses it. Dr. Lupinetti has treated thousands of cases and has the expertise not only to straighten teeth but also to aid in bite correction for those that need it. We can fix overbites, underbites, crossbites, crowding, and spacing, all with the clear convenience of Invisalign aligners.

To learn more about the advantages of Invisalign treatment, schedule an appointment at our Huntersville orthodontic office.

Steven Johnson
Had such an amazing experience that my son will be here this year getting braces as well. Dr. J, Alyssa and Da’lisa did an amazing job at managing expectations and being flexible to schedules. The entire staff feels like family after 18 months of braces. From the time of my initial consultation I knew this was going to be an amazing experience and the results speak for themselves. Can’t recommend them enough!

Connor Doyle
We had an absolutely wonderful experience at NC ToothDocs! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcome and at ease. The waiting area is kid-friendly and calming, which helped my child feel relaxed right away.

Dr. Amanda was incredibly gentle, patient, and kind. They explained everything in a way both my child and I could understand, and they took the time to answer all our questions without rushing us. My child actually looks forward to dental visits now—which I never thought I’d say!

The entire team is professional, warm, and clearly great with kids. If you’re looking for a pediatric dentist who combines expert care with a genuinely caring approach, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful review, Connor! We're thrilled to hear that you and your child had such a positive experience with Dr. Amanda and our team. We look forward to seeing you again!
Alina Halusic
Dr. Amanda is kind, knowledgeable and caring in her field. I have consulted with her on numerous patients and she always gives thorough advice and guidance. I would strongly suggest NC tooth docs to see Dr. Amanda for your pediatric dentist. I have referred many patients in my practice and continue to do so!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful review, Alina! We appreciate your trust in Dr. Amanda and our team. Your referrals mean a lot to us, and we look forward to continuing to provide excellent care for your patients.
Brittany Matthews
SO impressed with NC Tooth Docs in Harrisburg! My daughter had a bad experience at a different practice, so she was very nervous for the appointment. Dr. Amanda made her feel safe, comfortable and even got a bunch of laughs out of her. When we left she said “when do we get to come back?”. Cannot recommend this practice enough!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful review, Brittany! We're thrilled to hear that Dr. Amanda made your daughter feel comfortable and safe. We look forward to welcoming you both back soon!
