Dr. Mattingly is a Certified Invisalign Provider

Consider Invisalign to get the beautiful straight teeth you've always wanted, without braces. A complimentary consultation with Dr. Mattingly can determine if Invisalign is right for you.

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign uses a series of invisible, removable, and comfortable aligners that no one can tell you're wearing. So, you can smile more during treatment as well as after. Invisalign is made with 3-D computer imaging technology and has been proven effective. More than 70% of orthodontists in the US and Canada are certified to treat with Invisalign.

Why would I want Invisalign?

Not only are the aligners invisible, they are removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment. Plus, brushing and flossing are no problem. They are also comfortable, with no metal to cause mouth abrasions during treatment. And no metal and wires usually means you spend less time in your doctor's office getting adjustments. Invisalign also allows you to view your own virtual treatment plan when you start so you can see how your straight teeth will look when your treatment is complete.

How does it work?

You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move, little by little, week by week, until they have straightened to the final position Dr. Mattingly has prescribed. You'll visit Dr. Mattingly about once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned. Total treatment time averages 9-15 months and the average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but both will vary from case to case.

Invisalign Case Study

Our patient Steve who is 60 years old, had been living with severely crowded teeth for all of his adult life. Due to the misalignment of his bite, he was chipping his teeth, and slowly losing bone around the roots of his teeth. We decided on Invisalign treatment in my office and after just 1.5 years of treatment, look at his results!!!! His smile changed 1000% as did his function and oral health. We did this WITHOUT having to pull any teeth. We placed 1 single crown after the treatment was completed and now Steve can't STOP Smiling!! Whether your teeth are as crowded as Steve's were or not, our office is experienced at helping give you the smile you have always wanted and the functional health to go with it.... Call us and come in for a free consultation. Lots of dental offices "claim to have experience with Invisalign," our office delivers results, just like we did with Steve.
