Invisalign Clear Aligners

Straighten your smile discreetly, with a treatment plan designed using iTero 5D digital scanning for precision fit.

iTero 5D Digital Scanning
Adults & Teens

Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, clear removable aligners to gradually shift your teeth into place. No metal brackets, no wires. Just a discreet path to the smile you want, designed with the precision of our iTero 5D digital scanner.

We use the iTero scanner to create a detailed 3D model of your teeth and simulate your projected results before treatment begins, so you can see your future smile on screen before committing.

The Process

How Invisalign Works at South Austin Dental

01

Consultation & Scan

We assess your alignment, take iTero 5D digital scans, and show you a simulated result on screen.

02

Custom Treatment Plan

Your aligners are custom-fabricated based on a precise digital model mapping each tooth's movement.

03

Wear & Progress

Wear each set of aligners 20-22 hours/day, switching to a new set every 1-2 weeks. Check-ins every 6-8 weeks.

04

Reveal Your Smile

Once treatment is complete, we fit a retainer to maintain your results. Most cases finish in 6-18 months.

Invisalign for Adults

Many adults choose Invisalign because it fits into professional and social life without the look of traditional braces. Aligners are removable for eating and cleaning. No dietary restrictions, no bracket emergencies.

Invisalign for Teens

Invisalign Teen includes compliance indicators so parents and the dental team can track wear time. Blue dots on the aligners fade with use, giving everyone confidence the treatment is on track.
