Invisalign Health Benefits

Orthodontic treatment provides more benefits than simply a great smile. Did you know that orthodontic treatment, including both Invisalign and traditional braces can produce the following health benefits:

  • Improved chewing function, which is the beginning of the digestive process
  • Increased cleansability of the teeth, which prevents periodontal inflammation, which has been linked to heart disease
  • Increased protection from Gingivitis
  • Increased potential resistance to inflammation
  • Easier and more effective flossing, which is linked to disease prevention
  • Creates a healthy functioning environment for the jaw joint (TMJ)

Invisalign, not Braces

invisalign-elite-provider-san-diegoWe consider ALL cases "Invisalign Cases."

Orthodontics is more than just straightening teeth; it has to so with the overall bite, function, and harmony of the teeth, jaws, and muscles. Only a small percentage of Invisalign providers truly have the experience to correct more than just minor problems.

As an Orthodontic Specialist, Dr. Adams trained extensively to see this as a complete system comprehensively, successfully treating over 300 Invisalign patients in the greater San Diego area.

Invisalign Teen

With Invisalign Teen, you could be straightening your teeth without most of your friends even noticing! You don't have to worry about sharp metal wires and brackets irritating your cheeks and gums - especially handy if you play sports. And if you like popcorn or candy, go for it! With its removable aligners, Invisalign Teen lets you pretty much eat whatever you want. Try doing that with braces!

And don't forget about all the pictures you'll be taking—school pictures, prom, team photos or even just snapshots with friends. Since Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, you can smile confidently while wearing them, or easily take them out for that perfect shot. You won't end up with a lifelong reminder that you were getting your teeth straightened way back when.

While Invisalign Teen works the same way as Invisalign for adults, we've made it even easier for you to track your progress. Each aligner has a Blue Dot Wear Indicator in an inconspicuous location that is designed to fade over a two-week period, letting you know when a new aligner tray needs to be used.

Plus, we know that things can happen, like when you accidentally throw out your aligner with your lunch bag. That's why you get up to six free replacement aligners. Mom will be happy about that.

You're not the only one about to go on a journey like this—Call us today for a FREE Invisalign Teen Consultation with Dr. Adams!

Invisalign Pricing and FAQ


What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is the clear way to straighten teeth without braces, using aligners. Aligners are made of a clear, thin, medical-grade plastic that is virtually invisible when worn.

Using advanced 3-D computer imaging technology to simulate tooth movement, the doctor uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners that gradually move your teeth. You wear each aligner for about two weeks, moving from one set to the next, until your new smile emerges.

Why choose an Orthodontist to do my Invisalign treatment rather than a General Dentist?
You trust your heart to a cardiologist, your skin to a dermatologist, your knees to an orthopedist. Like these specialists who study their specialty areas after their general medical education, orthodontists devote additional years of study to orthodontics after they graduate from dental school. And like their medical counterparts, orthodontists limit their practices to their specialty area. Orthodontists have in-depth experience in orthodontic care. They use their knowledge and skills to help you get the best results possible.

Dr. Adams is an expertise in straightening teeth, which comes from his extensive education. General dentists typically only take a short course to learn about the Invisalign system with minimal education towards other factors you should take in consideration when straightening teeth. Orthodontists are dedicated to helping your teeth and jaws work in union so that you can speak, bite and chew comfortably and effectively.

What are the benefits of Invisalign?

  • 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.
  • Fewer visits--We know your time is valuable and with Invisalign, you can even finish treatment faster.

How much does Invisalign cost?
As with other orthodontic options, the cost will be based on the complexity of your case and the length of treatment. We don't want the investment to prevent you from having the smile you have always wanted. During the initial exam, Dr. Adams 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 complementary consultation.

Does my insurance cover Invisalign?
A dental insurance policy that covers orthodontics will cover treatment with Invisalign as well. Call our office so we can see how we can maximize your benefits!

Are financing options available for Invisalign?
Yes! Our practice offers NO INTEREST financing that has been attracting patients to our office for years through ChaseHealthAdvance, CareCredit, and in-house financing!
