What Is Invisalign®?
Invisalign is an innovative orthodontic treatment that uses a series of custom-made clear aligners to shift your teeth gradually into the desired position. Each aligner is made from a patented material known as SmartTrack®, which ensures a precise fit and optimizes the movement of your teeth. Through advanced 3D computer imaging technology, your journey begins with a personalized treatment plan that gives you a preview of what your new smile will look like.
Your Invisalign treatment at The Dental Care Group is tailored to accommodate your unique dental structure and concerns. This allows you to experience the transformative effects of teeth straightening without the hassle of maintaining metal braces.

The Importance of Straight Teeth
Having straight teeth is essential for more than just aesthetics; it also plays a significant role in your overall oral health. There are several benefits to maintaining a properly aligned smile:
- Enhanced Appearance: Straight teeth contribute to an attractive smile, positively affecting your confidence and self-esteem.
- Improved Oral Hygiene: Aligned teeth are easier to clean, decreasing the likelihood of tooth decay and gum disease.
- Better Functionality: Properly aligned teeth make chewing and speaking easier, allowing you to enjoy your meals without discomfort.
- Reduction of Dental Issues: Straight teeth reduce the risk of excessive wear, chipping, and cracking, and they distribute biting forces evenly.
- Increased Confidence: A beautiful smile can help boost your self-esteem and facilitate better social interactions.
- Less Head Discomfort: Correcting misalignment can alleviate tension headaches or migraines caused by dental issues.
What Dental Issues Does Invisalign Address?
Invisalign aligners are effective for a variety of orthodontic concerns, including:
- Crowded Teeth: Addressing overlapping teeth that can create a cluttered appearance.
- Gaps Between Teeth: Filling spaces that could lead to other dental problems.
- Overbites: Correcting the situation where the upper teeth overlap the lower teeth excessively.
- Underbites: Smoothing out the condition where the lower teeth extend beyond the upper teeth.
- Crossbites: Fixing the misalignment where the upper and lower teeth don’t line up properly.
During your complimentary consultation at The Dental Care Group, our skilled team will evaluate your dental health and assess your suitability for Invisalign treatment.
Am I a Candidate for Invisalign Clear Aligners?
While Invisalign is a popular choice for many, it’s essential to determine if it’s the right fit for you. Ideal aligner candidates generally:
- Have mild to moderate orthodontic issues.
- Can commit to wearing their aligners between 20 to 22 hours a day.
- Follow a diligent oral hygiene routine.
- Are in good overall dental health and can afford the treatment costs.
In certain cases where teeth are severely misaligned, traditional braces may be recommended. It’s always best to discuss your circumstances with our Pembroke Pines dental team.

- Aesthetic Appeal: The clear aligners are nearly invisible, making treatment discreet.
- Comfort: Removable aligners eliminate the discomfort associated with traditional braces.
- Convenience: You can eat and drink whatever you like since aligners can be removed during meals.
- Predictability: Advanced technology allows for a more predictable and effective treatment process.
- Fewer Office Visits: Compared to braces, Invisalign typically requires fewer appointments for adjustments.
The Invisalign® Treatment Process at The Dental Care Group
Your journey with Invisalign begins with a consultation at The Dental Care Group. Here’s a general overview of how the treatment works:
- Consultation & Digital Imaging: We start with a thorough evaluation and digital scans of your teeth.
- Customized Treatment Plan: Based on the scans, we create a treatment plan showing the movements of your teeth throughout the process.
- Receiving Your Aligners: You will receive a series of aligners, each meant to be worn for approximately one to two weeks before switching to the next in the series.

Treatment time generally ranges from 12 to 18 months, depending on individual dental needs. Our Aventura team will keep you informed and comfortable throughout the entire process.
Caring for Your Invisalign Aligners
Proper maintenance of your Invisalign aligners is crucial for achieving optimal results and maintaining good oral hygiene throughout your treatment. Follow these essential care guidelines to keep your aligners clean, clear, and effective:
Daily Cleaning Routine
- Clean your aligners every morning and night using lukewarm water and a soft-bristled toothbrush
- Avoid using hot water, as it can warp the plastic and affect the fit
- Use the Invisalign cleaning system or mild, clear soap for thorough cleaning
- Never use toothpaste on your aligners, as it can be abrasive and create scratches that harbor bacteria
Long-Term Care Tips
- Keep your previous set of aligners as backups in case of loss or damage
- Brush and floss your teeth before reinserting aligners to prevent trapping food particles
- Regular dental cleanings every six months help maintain optimal oral health during treatment
- Consider using an ultrasonic cleaner for deep cleaning your aligners weekly
Signs Your Aligners Need Attention
- Unusual odor or taste
- Visible buildup or cloudiness
- Cracks or damages in the material
- Poor fit or discomfort
