Invisalign is a clear aligner system that straightens teeth using a series of custom-made, removable trays. Designed to be virtually invisible and comfortable, Invisalign offers a discreet alternative to traditional braces while gradually moving teeth into proper alignment. The aligners are easy to remove for eating, brushing, and flossing, making them a convenient option for teens and adults seeking a flexible way to improve their smile.
You shouldn’t have to put your life on hold to get the smile you’ve always wanted. Invisalign clear aligners offer a modern approach to straightening teeth, free from the restrictions of metal braces. Whether you are a busy professional, a parent, or simply looking to invest in yourself, we are here to support your journey to better oral health.
Invisalign can address mild to complex orthodontic concerns, making it a trusted choice for patients seeking both function and aesthetics.

Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable plastic trays to gradually move your teeth into the desired position. Unlike metal braces, which use fixed brackets and wires that are tightened by an orthodontist, Invisalign offers a more comfortable and flexible experience that fits seamlessly into your daily routine.
Most patients experience some minor discomfort or pressure for a few days after switching to a new set of aligners. This is completely normal and is a sign that the treatment is working to shift your teeth. Because there are no metal wires or brackets, you won’t experience the gum and cheek irritation often associated with traditional braces.
The duration of your treatment depends on the complexity of your specific case. On average, Invisalign treatment takes between 12 to 18 months, though you may start seeing results in a matter of weeks. During your consultation in New London, we will provide a more accurate timeline based on your dental needs.
No, you should remove your aligners when eating or drinking anything other than water. This prevents the plastic from staining or warping due to heat. The benefit of this is that there are no food restrictions—you can continue to enjoy popcorn, apples, and other foods that are usually off-limits with braces.
We understand you have a busy schedule, so Invisalign appointments are generally quick and convenient. We typically see patients at our New London office every 6 to 8 weeks to ensure treatment is progressing as planned and to provide you with your next few sets of aligners.
Many dental insurance plans cover Invisalign treatment just as they would traditional braces. Our supportive team at New London Dental Care will happily review your insurance benefits with you to help you maximize your coverage and understand any out-of-pocket costs.
