A Clear and Comfortable Way to Straighten Your Smile
If you are looking for Invisalign in Kanata, Silver 7 Dental offers clear aligner treatment for adults and
teens who want to improve the alignment and appearance of their smile without traditional metal braces.
Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, removable clear aligners that gradually move the teeth toward
their planned positions. Because the aligners are discreet and removable, they can be a convenient
orthodontic option for many patients with mild to moderate alignment concerns.
At Silver 7 Dental in Kanata, we can assess your smile, bite and dental health to determine whether
Invisalign is an appropriate treatment option for you.
What Is Invisalign?
Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that uses a sequence of clear, custom-made aligners to gradually
reposition the teeth. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign aligners do not use metal brackets and wires.
They are removable for eating, drinking, brushing and flossing.
What Can Invisalign Help Correct?
Depending on the individual case, clear aligner treatment may help improve:
• Mild or moderate crowding
• Small spaces or gaps between teeth
• Certain rotated or misaligned teeth
• Minor orthodontic relapse after previous treatment
• Some bite and alignment concerns
Not every orthodontic problem can be treated appropriately with Invisalign. A dental examination is
necessary to determine whether clear aligners are suitable for your individual needs.
Invisalign for Adults in Kanata
Many adults would like straighter teeth but prefer an alternative to traditional braces. Invisalign's nearly
transparent aligners provide a discreet treatment option that can fit comfortably into professional and
social settings. Because the aligners are removable, patients can continue enjoying their usual foods while
maintaining regular brushing and flossing.
Invisalign for Teens
Clear aligners can also be an option for selected teenage patients. For teens who are suitable candidates
and are able to follow the recommended wear schedule, Invisalign can provide an alternative to traditional
braces. Suitability depends on the patient's teeth, bite, growth and orthodontic needs.
Benefits of Invisalign Clear Aligners
• Discreet appearance — clear aligners are much less noticeable than conventional metal braces.
• Removable aligners — they can be removed for eating, brushing and flossing.
• Fewer food restrictions related to brackets and wires.
• Easier oral hygiene because patients can brush and floss normally.
• Customized treatment based on an individualized treatment plan.

The Invisalign Treatment Process
1. Invisalign Consultation
Your dentist evaluates your teeth, gums, bite and alignment concerns and discusses what you would like
to improve.
2. Records and Treatment Planning
If Invisalign appears appropriate, the necessary digital records and scans are obtained to develop your
treatment plan.
3. Your Custom Clear Aligners
A customized sequence of aligners is created to gradually move your teeth according to the treatment
plan.
4. Wearing Your Aligners
Patients generally wear their aligners for most of the day and night, removing them primarily for eating,
drinking anything other than water, brushing and flossing. Your dentist will provide case-specific
instructions.
5. Progress Appointments
Periodic appointments allow us to monitor tooth movement and ensure treatment is progressing
appropriately.
6. Retainers After Invisalign
Once active treatment is complete, retainers are usually recommended to help maintain the new position
of your teeth.
How Long Does Invisalign Take?
Treatment time varies according to the complexity of the case and the amount of tooth movement
required. Minor alignment cases may require less treatment time than more complex orthodontic cases.
Your estimated treatment duration can be discussed after assessment and treatment planning.
Invisalign vs. Traditional Braces
Both Invisalign and traditional braces can be effective orthodontic treatments, but they work differently.
Invisalign provides removable, clear aligners and can be attractive to patients looking for a discreet
treatment option. Traditional braces may be more appropriate for certain complex orthodontic problems.
The best option depends on your bite, tooth position, treatment goals and clinical needs.
Invisalign and Cosmetic Dentistry
Straighter teeth can be an important part of an overall smile improvement plan. Depending on your goals,
Invisalign may sometimes be considered alongside treatments such as professional teeth whitening,
composite bonding or porcelain veneers. Whenever possible, tooth alignment should be carefully
considered before irreversible cosmetic treatment.
