Invisalign® For Adults

Why Choose Invisalign® as an adult?

Aligning your teeth and correcting your bite can take a few months to a few years, depending on the severity of the misalignment. During the duration of your orthodontic treatment, there is no need to avoid smiling. Skip the metal braces and instead, choose invisible aligners for comfort and esthetics.… keep smiling confidently throughout the whole process! Almost all treatment that can be done with braces, can be done with Invisalign.

how invisalign treatment works

Using the latest iTero Element® scanner, your doctor takes a fast and precise 3D digital scan of your teeth and maps out a custom treatment plan just for you. Invisalign® treatment is a sequential series of clear aligners that you wear all day and night, and replace weekly. The Invisalign® SmartTrack trays are made of medical grade plastic. While in your mouth, they continually put gentle pressure on your teeth to bring them to the ideal position planned by your orthodontist. With each new aligner, your teeth are slowly teased into position. The aligners can be removed when eating, brushing, flossing, or attending special events. The technology allows you to discreetly and conveniently obtain the best smile you deserve.

Benefits of invisalign clear aligners

The aligners can be more comfortable than metal braces
The trays are almost unnoticeable
Less office visits (usually every 3 months instead of every 2 months)
You can eat anything you want during treatment (as opposed to having to avoid crunchy, sticky foods with traditional braces)
Oral hygiene with Invisalign® is a breeze (with braces you have to get the floss under the wire in between each of your teeth)
With invisible aligners, you have a better chance to keep your teeth healthier and stain free

Is Invisalign Right for You as an Adult?

More adults are choosing orthodontic treatment than ever before. Whether you put it off when you were younger or your teeth have shifted over time, it is never too late to straighten your smile. Invisalign clear aligners are one of the most popular options for adult patients because they work around your life, not the other way around.

At Edge Orthodontics, we treat adult patients at all four of our locations: Lloydminster, Camrose, Cold Lake, and Martensville. Dr. Fraser Young and our team work with adults at every stage, from mild crowding to more complex alignment concerns.

What to Expect From Adult Invisalign Treatment

Invisalign uses a series of custom-fitted clear trays that gradually shift your teeth into position. Each set of trays is worn for about one to two weeks before moving to the next. You visit our clinic periodically so we can check your progress and make any adjustments.

Most adults complete treatment in 12 to 18 months, though simpler cases can move faster. The trays are removable, so you take them out to eat, drink, brush, and floss. There are no food restrictions and no wires to snap or brackets to irritate your cheeks.

Common Questions Adults Have Before Starting

Will people notice I am wearing aligners? The trays are made from smooth, clear plastic and sit flush against your teeth. Most people will not notice them in everyday settings, including at work or in social situations.

How long does Invisalign take for adults? Treatment length depends on the complexity of your case. A straightforward spacing or crowding issue may take under a year. More involved cases can take 18 months or longer. We give you a clear timeline during your consultation so you know what to expect before you commit.

Is Invisalign worth it for adults? For most of our adult patients, yes. The combination of a discreet appearance, removability, and predictable results makes it a practical fit for busy adult schedules. Many patients tell us they wish they had started sooner.

Does Invisalign hurt? You may feel some pressure for a day or two after switching to a new set of trays. This is normal and indicates the trays are doing their job. It is much milder than the soreness that can follow traditional wire adjustments.

Can I get Invisalign in Lloydminster, Camrose, Cold Lake, or Martensville? Yes. Edge Orthodontics offers Invisalign for adults at all four of our locations. If you are closer to one clinic than another, we make it easy to book your consultation at the location that works best for you.

What Does Adult Invisalign Cost?

The cost of Invisalign varies depending on the length and complexity of your treatment. During your consultation, we review your specific needs and give you a full breakdown of costs and payment options. Many dental plans include partial coverage for orthodontic treatment in adults, and we can help you understand what your plan covers.

We believe cost should not be a barrier to getting the smile you want. Our team walks you through flexible payment arrangements so treatment fits your budget.
