If you want to save the health of your smile, you must remember that is very important what you eat and how often you eat. Food affects your teeth and oral cavity long after you've swallow it. Sugars (glucose, fructose, maltose and lactose) contained in there enter into reactions with microorganisms and natural micro flora of the oral cavity for at least 20 minutes. During that period, your teeth are extremely vulnerable.

The Invisalign® system is the virtually invisible way to straighten your teeth and achieve the smile you've always dreamed of. Using advanced 3-D computer-imaging technology, Invisalign depicts your complete treatment plan, from the initial position of your teeth to the final desired position. Then a series of clear aligners are custom-made for your teeth – and your teeth only – to move them little by little. Each aligner is worn for about two weeks before being replaced by the next in the series, until the final position of your teeth is achieved. Your Invisalign treatment time will be determined by your doctor, based on your specific needs.
