Invisalign
Many patients postpone seeking orthodontic treatment because they don't want to spend months or years wearing visible metal wires and metal brackets. However, achieving straighter teeth is not just about aesthetics; it is a critical investment in your long-term oral health. Proper tooth alignment improves the stability of your bite and makes it easier to practice good oral hygiene.
At Chevy Chase Digital Dentistry, we offer Invisalign treatment as a sophisticated, high-tech solution for alignment issues. Dr. Azin Ghesmati’s rigorous training and commitment to digital dentistry ensure your Invisalign journey is mapped out with precision, resulting in beautiful, predictable results. We invite you to schedule a consultation to see a sneak peek of your new smile.
Invisalign is the most widely recognized advanced clear aligner system in the world, trusted by millions of patients. The Invisalign system uses a series of virtually invisible aligners to gradually shift the patient's teeth into their correct positions. These aligners are fabricated from patented SmartTrack material, which applies constant, gentle force for more comfortable and predictable tooth movement.
This treatment option is preferred because it eliminates the look of unsightly braces and the discomfort of metal wires and rubber bands. The overall purpose of the Invisalign treatment is to correct bite issues and misalignment using a sophisticated, aesthetically pleasing process.
Your Invisalign journey at Chevy Chase Digital Dentistry involves meticulous digital planning. Dr. Ghesmati utilizes advanced digital scanners to create a precise 3D model of your teeth. This model, along with our diagnostic data, is used by Align Technology to create your series of customized aligners. Before the treatment officially begins, you will receive a sneak peek of your potential new smile through a digital simulation.
Once your aligners arrive, you will wear each set for about one week (or as directed), removing them only to eat, drink anything but water, brush, and floss. Your progress to each of the next aligners in the series ensures the necessary small movements are achieved accurately until your treatment is complete. Mild alignment concerns may be corrected in as little as 3–6 months, while more involved bite or spacing issues can take 12 months or longer. Your exact timeline is determined during your consultation and treatment planning.
Invisalign treatment at Chevy Chase Digital Dentistry is carefully planned to correct dental crowding, spacing, and bite irregularities while preserving facial balance and long-term oral health. Using advanced digital diagnostics and high-magnification evaluation, Dr. Ghesmati designs each Invisalign plan to guide teeth into optimal alignment—not just straighter, but healthier and more stable.
Whether addressing mild spacing, complex crowding, or bite discrepancies such as overbite, underbite, or crossbite, Invisalign offers a refined, discreet solution for patients who value precision and aesthetics without compromise.
For patients who have experienced orthodontic relapse, Invisalign can thoughtfully restore alignment with a conservative, controlled approach—often without the need for traditional braces.
If you are seeking a way to straighten your teeth and correct various aesthetic or functional alignment concerns, you are likely a candidate for Invisalign treatment. Invisalign works effectively for a wide range of cases, from mild to moderate malocclusion. It is essential that you are committed to wearing the aligners for the prescribed wear time (usually 20–22 hours per day).
During your initial consultation, Dr. Ghesmati will use digital tools to assess the complexity of your case and determine the optimal treatment plan for your teeth.
Invisalign delivers predictable results, carefully planned by your doctor and backed by Align Technology. The movement of your teeth is subtle and gradual during the process, but you will begin to see visible improvements in your smile within the first few months. Your treatment results will be a beautifully aligned, functional new smile.
While treatment times vary depending on case complexity, once the active phase is complete, Dr. Ghesmati will fit you with a custom retainer (such as customized Vivera) to ensure the long-term stability of your new smile. This is how you ensure the beautiful smile you achieve lasts a lifetime.
When you choose Invisalign treatment at Chevy Chase Digital Dentistry, you are selecting not just a product, but a highly skilled doctor. Dr. Azin Ghesmati's approach to Invisalign is rooted in scientific discipline and a passion for engineering precision. As an experienced Invisalign-trained doctor, she uses advanced digital planning to achieve predictable results even for complex cases.
Unlike many general dentists, Dr. Ghesmati's multidisciplinary background ensures that the Invisalign treatment aligns not only your teeth but also your overall bite health. We ensure that every step of your Invisalign journey is handled with compassion, clarity, and expertise, providing a seamless path to your best smile.
