Invisalign clear aligner treatment at Inspire Dental in Mesquite, Garland, and Balch Springs TX

Clear Aligners Custom-Made for Your Smile

Invisalign uses a series of custom-fabricated, BPA-free clear plastic trays that gradually move your teeth into the desired position. Each set of aligners is worn for one to two weeks before being swapped for the next in the series. Because the trays are removable, you can eat whatever you want, brush and floss normally, and go about your day without the visibility or irritation of metal brackets and wires.

Treatment begins with a digital scan of your teeth, no messy impressions required. The scan creates a precise 3D model that allows our providers to map your entire treatment journey before your first aligner is even made. You can see a simulation of your projected final result before committing to treatment.

Conditions Invisalign Can Correct

Invisalign treats a wide range of alignment and bite issues in both teens and adults. Here are the most common conditions our patients address with clear aligner therapy.

Crowding

When there is not enough space in the arch, teeth overlap and become difficult to clean, increasing decay and gum disease risk.

Spacing and Gaps

Extra space between teeth can result from missing teeth or natural jaw size discrepancies, affecting both appearance and bite stability.

Overbite

Upper front teeth that overlap the lower teeth significantly can cause jaw strain and uneven wear on the biting surfaces over time.

Underbite

When the lower teeth sit in front of the upper teeth, it can affect chewing function, speech, and long-term jaw health.

Crossbite

One or more upper teeth bite inside the lower teeth, which can lead to tooth wear, chipping, and asymmetric jaw growth if left uncorrected.

Open Bite

When the upper and lower teeth do not meet when the mouth is closed, which affects chewing and can contribute to speech difficulties.

Nearly Invisible Appearance

Clear aligners are virtually undetectable when worn. Most people around you will not notice you are in orthodontic treatment at all.

Removable for Eating and Cleaning

Unlike fixed braces, aligners come out at mealtimes and for brushing and flossing, so there are no food restrictions and oral hygiene stays normal.

Comfortable Smooth Plastic

Aligners have no metal brackets or wires that can poke or irritate the cheeks and lips, making them more comfortable for most patients from day one.

Fewer Office Visits

Check-in appointments are typically every six to eight weeks rather than every four weeks for traditional braces, which is more convenient for busy schedules.

Predictable Digital Treatment Planning

Your entire treatment arc is mapped digitally before you begin. You can visualize the projected outcome and understand the full timeline upfront.

Flexible Payment Plans

We offer flexible financing options and accept most PPO insurance plans that include orthodontic benefits, making Invisalign more accessible for families.

How Invisalign Works: Your Treatment Step by Step

From your first consultation to your final retainer, here is what the Invisalign process looks like at Inspire Dental & Orthodontics.

1

Consultation and Smile Assessment

We review your dental history, examine your teeth and bite, and discuss your smile goals to determine whether Invisalign is the right fit for your case.

2

Digital 3D Scan

A digital intraoral scanner captures precise impressions of your teeth in minutes with no trays or impression material, creating the 3D model used to design your aligners.

3

ClinCheck Treatment Preview

Using Invisalign's ClinCheck software, we map your tooth movements from start to finish and show you a simulation of your projected result before treatment begins.

4

Aligner Fabrication

Your custom aligner series is precision-manufactured by Invisalign and typically arrives within two to three weeks of your scan appointment.

5

Attachments if Needed

Some cases require small tooth-colored attachment buttons bonded to specific teeth to help the aligners apply more targeted force for complex movements.

6

Wearing Your Aligners

Wear each set of aligners for 20 to 22 hours daily, removing them only to eat, drink anything other than water, and for oral hygiene. Change to the next tray as directed.

7

Progress Check Appointments

You visit us every six to eight weeks so we can confirm tooth movement is on track, address any fit issues, and provide your next sets of aligners.

8

Retainers After Treatment

Once your final aligner is complete, we fit you with retainers to maintain your results. Consistent retainer wear prevents teeth from drifting back over time.

Inspire Dental provider serving Mesquite, Garland, and Balch Springs TX

Inspire Dental & Orthodontics has Invisalign-trained providers at all three locations who have completed the clinical training required to offer Invisalign treatment. Our team uses precise digital scanning technology to plan treatment down to each individual tooth movement and monitors progress closely at every follow-up visit. For patients whose bite complexity goes beyond what clear aligners can address, we offer traditional braces as well, so you always have a path to a straighter smile regardless of where you start.

Invisalign is most effective when aligners are worn 20 to 22 hours per day as directed. Patients who are consistent with wear and attend their scheduled progress visits achieve the best outcomes. Learn more about clear aligner therapy from the American Dental Association.

Invisalign FAQs

Am I a good candidate for Invisalign?
+
Invisalign works well for most adults and teens with mild to moderate alignment and bite issues, including crowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, crossbites, and open bites. Very severe skeletal bite problems or cases requiring significant tooth rotation may be better addressed with traditional braces or a combination approach. The best way to find out is a consultation, where we can assess your specific case and let you know which option will deliver the best outcome for your smile.
Does Invisalign hurt?
+
Most patients experience some mild pressure or soreness for the first day or two after switching to a new set of aligners. This is normal and is a sign that the aligners are moving your teeth as intended. The discomfort typically fades within 48 hours. Unlike metal braces, Invisalign has no sharp wires or brackets that can scratch the inside of the mouth, making it more comfortable for most wearers overall.
How much does Invisalign cost at Inspire Dental?
+
Invisalign treatment at Inspire Dental & Orthodontics typically ranges from $3,500 to $4,200, depending on the complexity of your case and the number of aligners required. Many PPO dental insurance plans that include orthodontic benefits will contribute toward the cost, the same way they would for traditional braces. We also offer flexible payment plans to spread the cost over time. We will verify your insurance benefits for free and walk you through all costs before you commit.
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
+
Treatment duration varies based on the complexity of your case. Mild crowding or spacing corrections can sometimes be completed in as few as six months. Moderate to complex cases involving bite correction typically take twelve to eighteen months. Wearing your aligners for the recommended 20 to 22 hours per day is the single biggest factor in keeping your treatment on schedule. Skipping wear time extends treatment.
Can Invisalign fix an overbite or underbite?
+
Yes, Invisalign can correct mild to moderate overbites and underbites. For overbites, the aligners reposition the upper front teeth and, in some cases, rubber bands are used between upper and lower aligners to help adjust the bite relationship. Underbites follow a similar approach. Severe skeletal bite discrepancies, where the jaw bones themselves are significantly misaligned, may require surgical intervention in addition to orthodontic treatment and are evaluated case by case.
What happens if I lose or break an aligner?
+
Contact us as soon as possible. In most cases, we will advise you to wear the previous tray in your series while a replacement is ordered. If you are close to the end of a wear cycle, we may recommend moving to the next tray instead. Replacement aligners can typically be ordered from Invisalign, though there may be an additional fee depending on your treatment agreement. Do not go without any aligner for more than a day or two, as teeth can shift back quickly.
Do I need retainers after Invisalign?
+
Yes, retainers are essential after any orthodontic treatment, including Invisalign. Teeth have a natural tendency to shift back toward their original positions, a process called relapse, and retainers prevent this from happening. Most patients wear retainers full time for the first few months after treatment, then transition to nighttime-only wear long term. Skipping retainers is the most common reason patients need to repeat orthodontic treatment.
