Invisalign vs. Braces
A Calm Guide to
Straightening Teeth as an Adult
Dr. Kim offers Invisalign® vs Braces as a dedicated topic/service.
Many adults want straighter teeth—but they also want their life to stay simple. That’s where clear aligners can be a comfortable fit.
The Invisalign Process
-
Consult + scan (digital mapping of your teeth)
-
Treatment preview (see the planned movement)
-
Aligner series (you switch trays on schedule)
-
Check-ins (to confirm progress)
-
Retention (to keep results stable)
Benefits
Nearly invisible
Removable for eating and brushing
Often more comfortable than brackets/wires for many patients
What to Expect
There’s an adjustment period (a few days) when you switch trays.
Most patients find a rhythm quickly—especially when the plan is clearly explained and expectations are realistic.
