Honestly, probably! More than 70% of Americans have misaligned teeth. Invisalign can fix a ton of issues, from minor tweaks to bigger bite problems. The best way to know for sure is to pop in for a quick chat. We'll check things out and give you the real deal on whether it's the right move for your smile.

It's a personal trip, so the timeline is different for everyone. Most of our patients are rocking their new smiles in about 8 to 10 months, but some can fast-track it in as little as 6 months. We’ll give you a more solid timeline once we see your smile.

You might feel some initial pressure — a sign that your aligners are doing their job! But it’s not really painful. It’s a mild tightness that usually fades after a day or two with a new set aligners. Totally manageable.  

Think of your aligners as your new best accessory: you need to have them on for 20-22 hours a day for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks you will switch to the next set of aligners. The more you wear them, the faster you get that new smile. Only take them out to eat, drink anything besides water, and to brush, and floss.

Yep! That’s the beauty of it. Just take your aligners out before you eat or drink anything other than water. It's a small step that keeps your aligners clean and clear.

Super simple. A quick brush with a toothbrush and a rinse with lukewarm water is all it takes. We also love soaking them using a cup of hydrogen peroxide while you brush your teeth. It’s so quick and easy. Both work great. We'll show you how to keep them fresh and invisible.

Because we're all about that high-tech life, our check-ins are quick and efficient. We’ll see you about every quarter (every 3 months) to hand off your next sets of aligners and make sure you're on the right track.

Once your smile is perfect, we'll hook you up with a custom retainer. Don't skip this part! It's the key to making sure your amazing new smile stays that way forever.

We're in the Top 1% of providers nationwide and have a Diamond Provider status — that's serious street cred. Conveniently located in downtown Chicago, our expert team uses advanced AI and elite Invisalign training to deliver precise results in a predictable timeline. We're not just moving teeth; we’re creating your best smile, and we're really good at it.

The short answer is: nope, not really. That's the major win with Invisalign! Since you pop the aligners out for meals, you get to keep eating all your favorites — pizza, popcorn, coffee, you name it. Just remember to brush up before you put your aligners back in. Keeping that routine is the only “rule.”

They sound high-tech, and they kind of are. Attachments are tiny, tooth-colored dots that we bond strategically to a few of your teeth. Think of them as super-grips for your aligners. They're essential for more complex movements, helping the aligners nudge certain teeth exactly where they need to go. They're subtle, effective, and we'll remove them completely the moment your treatment is finished.

It really varies, but here's the deal: Invisalign is often comparable to the cost of traditional braces, and sometimes even less. Your total investment depends on 2 things: 1) how complex your case is and 2) how long your treatment takes. So, how much are we talking? A treatment investment typically can range from $3800 to $5200. We offer flexible payment plans with payments starting as low as $208 a month. We will break down all the costs, (and provide any insurance details and financing options, as needed) at your first visit. No surprises, just a clear path to your new smile.

No need to panic! Losing an aligner is a minor speed bump, not a total wreck. If you've only been wearing it for a day or two, just pop the previous set back in and call us ASAP. If you're close to switching to your next set, we might just tell you to move on early. Either way, we'll get you a new set quickly or give you the green light to keep moving forward. The key is to contact us immediately (312-434-5000) so we can keep your treatment on track.
