The Invisalign approach is the most well received treatment modality seen by Dr. Shih when patient look for clear option to straighten their teeth. We are treating girls as young as 12 and boys as young as 14. While many Cosmetic cases benefit from Braces treatment before placement of Implants and bridges, Invisalign® is a preferred method for most patients. If you want to see if Invisalign® can work for you, please call for an appointment. First orthodontic consultation and second opinion are complimentary. Do not accept lesser clear aligner orthodontic systems. Invisalign® is the best we have used and we have tried them all. See it happen for yourself!
For severe crowding in adult cases, Shismart Braces® can fast and quickly de-rotate and resolve crowding so that Invisalign® can be used secondarily. A case started with Shismart Braces® and finished with Invisalign® costs an additional $2800. Shismart Brace®s can also work alone without adding Invisalign® . We are using the possible new techniques to make you smile the EZ way.

What are my options if I do not want metal brackets?
First, you should consider a clear & Invisible way to straight you teeth, without wearing
braces - Invisalign®.
A brand new millennium technology has been developed which uses
computer scanners and virtual reality to plan the gradual movement of
teeth by clear overlay retainer appliances.
Invisalign works through a series of invisible, removable, and
comfortable aligners that no one can tell you're wearing. The overlay
appliances are constructed via computer with only ½ mm movement of the
malposed (crooked) teeth for each clear overlay appliance. The
treatment consists of a series of these clear overlay retainer
appliances.
The number of appliances required to straighten the teeth completely
varies according to the severity of the malocclusion (bad bite). They
are designed to be worn 24 hours per day, with the exception of eating
and oral hygiene.
Invisalign® can give you the beautiful straight teeth you've always
wanted. So, now you can smile more during treatment as well as after.
- Invisalign® is the invisible way to straighten your teeth without braces.
- Invisalign® uses a series of clear removable aligners to straighten your teeth without metal wires or brackets.
- Invisalign® has been proven effective in clinical research and in orthodontic practices nationwide.
- Invisalign® also allows you to view your own virtual treatment plan when you start, so you can see how your straight teeth will look when your treatment is complete.
How Does Invisalign® Work?
- You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
- As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move - little by little, week by week - until they have straightened to the final position Dr. Shih has prescribed.
- You'll visit Dr. Shih about once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.
- Although the time and total number of aligners needed will vary from patient to patient, total treatment time averages 9-24 months, and the average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30.
How Much is Invisalign Cost?
Invisalign is not inexpensive due to its high cost lab fee. Normally it costs around $6,000, Minor crowding that only requires less than 10 aligners will cost less, please call our office at 858-689-6088 for details)
*** Invisalign is only for adult dentition and need total compliance to wear the aligner by instruction, not indicated for children under 12/ or patient with severe crowding dentition.
