If you’ve been wanting a straighter smile without the look or hassle of metal braces, Invisalign® clear aligners offer a modern, discreet solution. At Family Practice Dentistry, Dr. Kevin J. Welch provides customized Invisalign® treatment to help patients achieve beautifully aligned, healthy smiles with convenience and comfort. Our locally-owned practice in Kokomo is known for prompt appointments with no wait times and treating patients like family, with an approach designed to make your orthodontic journey smooth from start to finish!
What Is Invisalign®?
Invisalign® uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gently and gradually move your teeth into proper alignment. Each aligner is custom-designed using digital scans of your mouth, ensuring a precise and comfortable fit.
Our patients love Invisalign® because:
- The aligners are virtually invisible
- You can remove them to eat, drink, brush, and floss
- There are no brackets, wires, or dietary restrictions
- Treatment is typically faster and more comfortable than traditional braces
What Invisalign® Can Correct
Invisalign® effectively treats a wide range of orthodontic concerns, including:
- Crowded teeth
- Gaps or spacing issues
- Overbites
- Underbites
- Crossbites
- Open bites
- Relapse after previous orthodontic treatment
If you want straighter teeth without braces, Invisalign® is often an ideal choice for both teens and adults.
Your Invisalign® Treatment Process
Invisalign® begins with a consultation, where Dr. Welch evaluates your bite, teeth alignment, and goals. Using advanced digital imaging, we create a precise 3D scan with no messy impressions required. You’ll see a digital simulation of your expected results before treatment even starts. Your aligners are then custom-made for your unique smile.
You’ll wear each aligner set for about 1–2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. Most patients wear them 22 hours per day. Throughout the duration of your treatment, you’ll visit our Kokomo office periodically so Dr. Welch can monitor your progress. Check-in visits to Family Practice Dentistry are quick and easy, and simply ensure your treatment is staying on track to achieve your desired results. Once treatment is complete, you’ll receive retainers to help maintain your beautifully straight new smile!
