Are you wondering, “Can Invisalign fix my gapped teeth?” In short, the answer is very likely a resounding, “Yes!” However, we won’t know for sure unless we’ve examined your particular teeth. That way, we can find out a path that’s right for you and your smile.

Gapped teeth, also known as diastema, refers to spaces between the teeth. Both kids and adults can have a diastema. While the gap may look unattractive, a more significant concern is that gap teeth can cause serious health issues.

Spaces between teeth can lead to tooth decay and sore gums. In some cases, it can occur as a result of gum disease, and the doctor will need to treat the infection first. Nevertheless, there a wide range of options to treat gap teeth.

Invisalign aligners could be a great solution with results you will enjoy for a lifetime.

Why Choose Invisalign?

If we determine that Invisalign is the best option for you, then you’ll be one of the millions that have perfected their smiles using the patented clear plastic aligners.

There are so many benefits. Here are a few:

  • Faster treatment times
  • Personalized custom-fit
  • Affordable payment options
  • Comfortable and easy-to-use
  • Fewer visits to the orthodontist
  • Visualize your smile before you begin
  • People may not know you wear Invisalign
  • No metal wire means no abrasions to your mouth
  • Take out the aligners to eat, drink, brush, and floss

The Proof Is in the Smiles

You don’t have to wait any longer to get the smile you’ve always wanted. We’ve created amazing results and watched as patients went from shy to confident and beaming with radiant smiles. As you can see, the results speak for themselves, and it’s why we love what we do. Check out our Before and After page for some examples.
