Dr. George Rivera has 20+ years treating Invisalign cases, and he looks forward to helping you achieve a beautiful, healthier smile. 

Customized for Your Smile

Dr. Rivera uses custom-made invisible aligners to help you transform your smile without the hassle of uncomfortable metal braces. Because Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, you are free to go about your day-to-day activities without interference or discomfort. 

Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign is comfortable, easily removable, and offers you the flexibility to eat and drink what you want during your treatment. These clear aligners may also be removed to brush and floss your teeth, thereby improving your ability to maintain your oral health during treatment. 

Using advanced 3-D imaging technology, Invisalign creates a customized treatment plan to move misaligned teeth into a final desired position. Every couple of weeks, patients trade out their sets of the aligner trays, each one a little snugger than the last set. Patients may experience slight pressure with each new set of Invisalign aligners, which is perfectly normal. 

Dr. Rivera is specially trained to use Invisalign treatment for straightening teeth and promoting airway health. Invisalign is an innovative orthodontic alternative that corrects your bite and aligns your teeth without unsightly or uncomfortable metal wires. Invisalign trays are smooth and fabricated from BPA-free plastic that covers the teeth and moves them into place gradually.

Any discomfort you may experience will likely pass in only a couple of days. Depending on your unique case, Dr. Rivera will determine the length of your Invisalign treatment. Typically, minor bite misalignments can be corrected in less than a year. 

Invisalign Does More Than Straighten Teeth

Invisalign is often viewed as a cosmetic treatment, but it also has the potential to enhance your overall oral and airway health. Airway health involves your ability to breathe, which directly affects your sleep quality and ability to perform important daily activities.

Invisalign in Oakbrook Terrace can expand the space in your mouth, giving you more room to breathe and swallow properly. It also makes more space for the tongue, reduces teeth grinding, and improves overall breathing. Ultimately, Invisalign can help patients breathe better while also enhancing their smiles. 

Invisalign doesn’t require any tightening for brackets, and the trays are changed about every two weeks for optimal results. Invisalign is a very discreet treatment, and you may even forget you’re wearing them! Invisalign is convenient and comfortable for patients of all ages. It’s also the only straightening system that lets patients see in advance their results throughout their treatment.
