Invisalign in Renton, WA
A Clear, Comfortable Way to Straighten Your Smile
Looking for a discreet way to straighten your teeth without the hassle of metal braces? Invisalign clear aligners at Benson Hill Smiles in Renton offer a nearly invisible and comfortable solution to achieve the smile you’ve always wanted. This modern orthodontic treatment uses a series of custom-made, clear plastic trays to gently shift your teeth into the ideal position — no wires, no brackets, no interruptions to your lifestyle.
Invisalign is popular among both teens and adults who want effective results without the appearance and maintenance of traditional braces.
How Invisalign Works
The Invisalign system is simple and highly effective:
- We start with a digital scan of your teeth using advanced imaging technology.
- A custom treatment plan is created based on your specific alignment goals.
- You'll receive a series of clear aligners that gradually move your teeth over time.
- You wear each set of aligners for 1–2 weeks, only removing them to eat, brush, or floss.
Most patients complete treatment in 12–18 months, though this varies depending on individual needs.
Who Is a Candidate for Invisalign?
Invisalign can treat a wide range of orthodontic concerns, including:
- Crowded or overlapping teeth
- Gaps or spacing issues
- Overbites and underbites
- Crossbites and open bites
Invisalign is a great choice for adults seeking subtle orthodontic correction, as well as teens who want an alternative to braces. During your consultation, we’ll determine if Invisalign is right for you or recommend other options like braces or clear aligners depending on your case.
