How does Invisalign actually work? Here's the short version.
A lot of people assume straightening teeth means brackets, wires, and a year of dodging popcorn. It doesn't have to.
It starts with a digital scan — no impression trays, no goop. About ten minutes and we have a 3D model of your teeth on screen. From there, Dr. Karim plans the movement of every single tooth: which ones move, how far, and in what order.
That plan becomes a series of custom clear aligners. Each set moves your teeth a fraction of a millimeter. You wear them 20–22 hours a day, switch to the next set every week or two, and pop them out to eat, brush, and floss. Most cases finish in 6 to 18 months.
And because it's all planned digitally, you get to see your projected result before you commit to anything.
