This is a system that creates and uses custom-made removable aligners that guide teeth into their ideal position. They are clear; most people will not even notice you’re wearing them. Moreover, you’ll only need to see your dentist about once every six weeks.
From slightly crooked teeth or small gaps to more complex dental procedures involving misalignments, overbites, or underbites, clear braces through Dr. John Patterson can handle them.
Clear aligners have proved their value to millions of patients. What should you expect when you finally start your journey?
Step 1: Comprehensive Assessment
Every mouth is unique, so dentists conduct complete evaluations to examine bites and oral health. You might have to undergo a procedure like cleaning, extraction, or filling to support your long-term goals.
Step 2: Customized Planning
Using advanced digital imaging, dentists map out exactly how your teeth will move over time, following their exact shapes and positions. This stage ensures your clear braces fit your mouth and lifestyle.
Step 3: Receive Sets of Clear Aligners
Once your plan is finalized, your dentist bonds tooth-colored attachments to your teeth, and you receive your first set of clear aligners. Wear them for 20 to 22 hours daily, removed only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
Step 4: Monitor Progress
Visit your dentist periodically to check progress and receive your next set. These quick appointments help confirm your teeth are moving exactly as planned. If not, careful adjustments will be made.
Step 5: Transform Your Smile
Most patients finish their Invisalign treatment in about a year. In just twelve months, you could be looking in the mirror at teeth that are straighter and healthier than ever before.
Every tooth affects you. As such, dental implants, especially full-arch ones, transform you. How?
A dental implant is the most sturdy way to replace a missing tooth. Unlike dentures that rest on the gums, an implant is surgically placed as an artificial tooth root.
The threaded post is what dentists fuse into jawbones, and the abutment is the connector that screws the restoration in, whether a crown, bridge, or denture.
There are different types of dental implants, and the right one depends on your case. How many teeth are you missing? How is your bone density? What are your goals? The solution could be any of the following.
Did you know that some children can benefit from early orthodontic care? Invisalign First, also known as Phase 1, is designed for children who are still growing, aiming to improve their bite and prevent more serious problems in the future.
No pain, tricky brushing techniques, and avoiding favorite snacks for six to 10-year-olds!
Being a teenager is hard enough without metal braces in every selfie. As such, Invisalign Teen guarantees better smiles without asking you to give up your confidence or freedom.
Count on the few teen-friendly features like the Blue Dot Wear Indicator to track how long each set is worn. Plus, if an aligner gets lost or broken, you have up to six replacements at no extra cost.
Not everyone has the time and energy to worry about awkward smiles at social events, complicated flossing routines, food restrictions, and monthly adjustments with dentists. Clear aligners are the dental game-changers busy adults like you have been waiting for. It is never too late to fix your teeth!
Are you self-conscious about your crowded or spaced-out teeth? You’re probably tired of hiding them. At John Patterson, DMD, we’re proud to be a top provider of Invisalign treatment, boosting patients’ confidence and oral hygiene.

Step 1: Schedule Your First Consultation

Step 2: Learn Your Custom Treatment Plan
Once we determine you are a good candidate, our team uses advanced technology, such as the iTero® digital scanning system, to take fast, precise 3D images of your teeth. We map out a custom plan that shows the exact movements of teeth and estimates how long your treatment will take.
Step 3: : Receive Your Clear Aligners
Your clear aligners are custom-made from Invisalign’s proprietary SmartTrack® material. Look forward to a snug, comfortable fit and virtually invisible trays!
Wear your clear braces 20 to 22 hours per day and only remove them before eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.
Step 4: Monitor Your Progress
As you progress through each set of aligners, your teeth will shift into the ideal positions. Dentists typically recommend switching to a new set every week and scheduling quick check-ups every six weeks or so.
Step 5: Take Care of Your New Smile
At John Patterson, DMD, we offer custom-made Vivera® retainers using the same state-of-the-art technology as invisible braces. Wear them as instructed to ensure your teeth stay beautifully aligned for years.

Invisalign is a system of custom-made, removable clear aligners that gradually guide your teeth into their ideal position.
Invisalign may be a good option for children, teens, and adults looking for a discreet alternative to traditional braces.
Invisalign can treat crowding, gaps, crossbites, open bites, overbites, underbites, and other misalignments.
For the best results, aligners should be worn for 20 to 22 hours each day, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
Most patients complete their Invisalign treatment in about one year, although treatment time varies depending on the complexity of each case.
If you have orthodontic insurance, your plan may cover part of the treatment cost. Our treatment coordinator will review your benefits and explain your available options.
