Invisalign at Lingenbrink Orthodontics


Invisalign at Lingenbrink Orthodontics

Invisalign has become the future of braces.  Dr. Paul Lingenbrink is a Premier Preferred Provider of Invisalign and Invisalign Teen, which means he is in the top five percent of Invisalign providers in the nation!

How Invisalign Works

Invisalign takes a modern approach to straightening teeth, using a custom-made series of aligners made for you and only you. These aligners are made of smooth, comfortable and virtually invisible plastic that you simply wear over your teeth. Wearing the aligners will gradually and gently lift your teeth into place, based on the exact movement Dr. Paul Lingenbrink plans out for you. There are no metal brackets to attach and no wires to tighten. You simply pop in a new set of aligners every two weeks, until your treatment is complete and you achieve the confident smile that you've always wanted.  The best part about the whole process is that people won't even know you're straightening your teeth.

The Facts

Nearly Invisible: You can straighten your teeth without anyone having to know.
Removable: You can still eat and drink what you want.
Better Oral Hygiene: You can brush and floss normally to maintain healthy gums and teeth.
Comfortable: There are no wires, metal or brackets to cause mouth abrasions.

Invisalign for Adults and Teens

Choosing to straighten your teeth is a big decision that affects not only your appearance, but your lifestyle as well. As an adult, you may be looking to improve your smile for business or social reasons. Or perhaps you’re a teen or a parent of a teen hoping to make the best of an inevitable situation. Either way, Invisalign can provide a simple way to accomplish this.


Cost


We don't want the investment to prevent you from having the smile you have always wanted. During the initial exam, Dr. Lingenbrink will determine the complexity of your case, the estimated length of treatment, and the investment for treatment. We offer a variety of payment options to suit your individual needs. All of this will be discussed during your complimentary exam.
