Invisalign® Clear Aligners in Tacoma
A Clear Approach to Straightening Your Teeth
Traditional braces are not the only option for improving tooth alignment. Clear aligners are designed to fit over your teeth and can be removed when eating, drinking, brushing, and cleaning between your teeth.
Invisalign® treatment uses a series of aligners, with each stage designed to make controlled changes to tooth position. Your treatment plan depends on your current alignment, bite, and the goals discussed during your evaluation.

What Can Invisalign® Help Address?
Clear aligner treatment may be considered for certain alignment concerns, depending on the individual case.
These may include:
- Crowded teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Certain spacing concerns
- Some bite and alignment problems
- Teeth that have shifted over time
Not every orthodontic problem can be treated with the same approach. An examination is important to determine whether Invisalign® or another orthodontic option is appropriate.

Taking Care of Your Aligners
Proper care helps keep your aligners clean and in good condition.
Follow the instructions provided by your dental professional and keep your aligners stored safely when they are not being worn. Avoid exposing them to inappropriate heat, and maintain good oral hygiene throughout treatment.
If an aligner becomes damaged, lost, or no longer fits properly, contact your dental office rather than attempting to modify it yourself.
