Thanks to Invisalign at Orchin Orthodontics, parents can have a great smile, too!

Hey parents! Focusing on your children's teeth, bite and oral health so much that you're neglecting your own? If you've been thinking about having your own set of perfectly-aligned pearly whites, Dr. Andrew Orchin and our staff at Orchin Orthodontics can help! Dr. Orchin is specially trained to offer an adult-friendly option for straightening teeth called Invisalign here in the greater Washington D.C. area.

Invisalign consists of a set of clear aligners that are molded to fit your teeth, and are to be worn all day and night, except for meals, brushing, and flossing – when you can easily slip them out to make eating and cleaning a snap!

Because they're clear, your teeth will be steadily straightening – and no one will know it but you! Please give us a call at 202-609-8948 to set up a consultation, so we can discuss the specifics of your treatment.

We hope you're having an amazing summer so far!

Is Invisalign® Really Customized for Each Patient? - Washington, DC

Yes, it is, and that’s part of what makes it work. To find out if you are the right candidate for Invisalign treatment, the first thing we do is to take an impression of your teeth as they are now and digitize it. Using special software, we look at the current positioning of your teeth and compare it to the way your teeth should look.

Next we use special software to map out the exact path your teeth will take from the beginning of your treatment to the end. Based on the results, a set of custom aligners are created just for your teeth. Throughout the course of treatment, you will be required to wear these clear, removable aligners one at a time; each one moving your teeth closer and closer to their final, perfectly aligned position. And since the aligners are virtually invisible, nobody around you will even know you are wearing braces!

Dr. Orchin is a certified Invisalign provider. If you have questions about Invisalign, or would like to find out if you are a candidate for Invisalign treatment, give us a call at 202-609-8948.
