Invisalign Clear Aligners in Cornelia, GA
Invisalign straightens teeth with a series of clear, removable plastic aligners instead of metal braces. Each set gently shifts teeth a small amount, and you switch to a new set on a schedule set by your dentist. Aligners need to be worn about 20 to 22 hours a day. Ferdos Family Dental offers Invisalign for teens and adults in Cornelia and the surrounding area.
Invisalign for Cornelia-area patients
Many adults want straighter teeth but do not want metal brackets. Invisalign aligners are nearly invisible, and because they are removable, you can eat what you like and brush and floss normally.
Straighter teeth are not only about looks. Well-aligned teeth are easier to clean, which can lower your risk of cavities and gum disease.

Questions patients ask
Invisalign FAQs
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
Treatment time depends on how much movement is needed. Many cases take about a year, and simpler cases can be shorter. We give you an estimate at your consultation.
Does Invisalign hurt?
You may feel pressure for a day or two when you switch to a new set of aligners. That pressure means the aligners are working.
Can I eat with my aligners in?
Remove aligners to eat or drink anything other than water, then brush before putting them back in.
Is Invisalign as effective as braces?
For many mild to moderate cases, yes. Some complex bite problems are better treated with traditional braces, and we will tell you honestly which fits your case.
