Invisalign straightens teeth with a series of clear, removable aligners instead of brackets and wires. You wear each set for about a week, take them out to eat and brush, and most people never notice you are wearing them. Dr. Chelsea Mason plans your case with a digital scan, so there are no gooey impressions.
Free Invisalign consultation with a preview of your finished smile. Call or text (989) 686-6110.
Our iTero scanner maps your teeth in minutes and shows you a simulation of the result. If you like what you see, your aligners are made from that same scan.
Dr. Chelsea Mason plans each Invisalign case from a digital iTero scan and checks your teeth, gums and bite before you start. Because she is also your regular dentist, she can keep an eye on your cleanings and any dental work while your teeth move.
Invisalign works well for crowding, gaps, mild bite issues and teeth that shifted after braces years ago. Because the aligners come out, you eat what you want and keep brushing and flossing normally. Checkups are quick and you can often go six to eight weeks between visits, which matters if you are driving in from Midland or Saginaw.

It depends on how much your teeth need to move. Simple cases cost less than full treatment. You get an exact price at the free consultation, and we offer monthly payment plans. Many dental plans include an orthodontic benefit that applies.
Most cases finish in six to eighteen months. Minor crowding or spacing can be quicker. Wearing the aligners 20 to 22 hours a day is the biggest factor in staying on schedule.
You will feel pressure for a day or two each time you switch to a new aligner. That is the aligner working. It is much milder than the soreness of tightened braces, and over-the-counter pain relievers handle it.
Water is fine. For anything else, take them out, then brush before putting them back. Coffee, tea and red wine will stain the aligners if you drink with them in.
Yes. Invisalign Teen includes wear indicators and replacement aligners. Dr. Mason will tell you at the consultation whether a case is a good fit for aligners or needs traditional braces.
Yes. Teeth drift without one. We include retainers at the end of treatment, usually worn at night.
