The Treatment

A discreet approach to a straighter smile.

Invisalign® uses a personalized series of clear, removable aligners to gradually guide your teeth into better positions. Because the aligners are transparent and fit closely over your teeth, they allow you to work, socialize, and smile with confidence throughout treatment.

Every Invisalign® plan at Ortega Cottage Dentistry begins with a thorough evaluation. Dr. Kim considers your tooth alignment, bite, oral health, and personal goals before determining whether clear aligners are the right solution for you.
