Crowded teeth are one of the most common bite issues addressed through orthodontics. Norfolk orthodontist Dr. Michael Folck can often fix this problem with Invisalign, eliminating the obtrusive and painful consequences of metal braces. The best way to determine if Invisalign is right for your smile is though a comprehensive evaluation with Dr. Folck.

How Invisalign Works

Invisalign uses a progressive series of clear plastic aligners to gently push your teeth into their optimal alignment. When teeth are crowded, your Invisalign trays will be customized to move your teeth away from one another and to line them up in their proper position.

You will wear each tray for a period of few weeks before returning to our office for your next set. During these visits, our orthodontist will make sure your teeth are prepared for the next set of aligner trays and check to ensure proper movement. The entire process generally takes less than 18 months and can be incredibly effective for people with mild to moderate tooth crowding.

If you live in or around Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Norfolk, Hampton, or Portsmouth, Virginia and would like to learn if Invisalign is right for you, please contact Dr. Michael P. Folck, DDS to schedule an orthodontic consultation today.
