PrintAn attractive, open smile is an invaluable asset in your personal and professional life, conveying confidence, charisma, and a whole host of positive attributes in a single flash of your pearly whites.

Choose Invisalign for a Confident Smile

If you are a candidate for Invisalign orthodontic treatment, we’ll begin the process of straightening your teeth by taking precise digital measurements of your dentition. This data will be sent directly to an Invisalign lab where your custom aligners will be created. When we receive your aligners, we’ll assess your bite to ensure optimal fit and comfort. The rest is easy! Simply wear your clear, comfortable aligners for the designated amount of time each day for a period of about two weeks for each set. As time passes, you’ll graduate to the next set of aligners in the series until treatment is complete. With Dr. Sasson’s guidance, you’ll begin to see your new smile emerge in no time!

Because we want you to begin enjoying the innumerable benefits of straighter teeth as soon as possible, Dr. Sasson also offers Propel Orthodontic technology. This revolutionary solution actually improves the restructuring process within your jaw as your teeth are shifted into their final positions. Capable of reducing orthodontic treatment duration by up to 60 percent, Propel has been successfully utilized with both traditional braces and the Invisalign system. We genuinely look forward to becoming your partners in your journey toward a healthier, more balanced smile with Invisalign clear aligners.

Enjoy a Perfectly Straight Smile At Last with the Help of Invisalign in Brookline

October 25, 2013

Dr. Sasson Boston orthodonticsA beautiful smile can be a valuable tool. Whether you’re leading a big presentation at work or simply meeting friends for a night on the town, perfectly white, straight teeth showcase all kinds of positive attributes to those around you, including confidence, youth, vitality, success, and much more. But what can you do if you weren’t blessed with a naturally flawless appearance? The last thing professional adults want is to spend multiple years suffering with traditional metal braces. Here at Boston Smile Center in Brookline, we’re happy to share some good news with you: you don’t have to! Dr. Alan Sasson offers Invisalign as an adult orthodontics option that simplifies the straightening process and keeps it practically unnoticeable, allowing you to correct your smile without having to sacrifice your self-confidence in the process!

How does Invisalign work?

It’s simple enough – a set of clear aligners will be specifically created for you by the Invisalign lab, with each one representing a different stage of your teeth as they move into their ideal alignment. All you have to do is wear each one for the appropriate amount of time before moving to the next in the series. With a brief check-up every four to six weeks so that we can ensure that you’re making progress, you’ll have a beautifully straight smile before you know!

Invisalign has countless benefits over traditional orthodontic methods. They’re clear and removable, meaning that you won’t have to make any inconvenient changes to your diet or oral hygiene routine. Better yet, most Invisalign cases are finished after only 12 to 18 months, which is a significantly briefer treatment time than the multiple years metal braces usually require.

Contact our Brookline office today to schedule a FREE consultation with Dr. Sasson. We’ll be sure to leave your teeth feeling happier and healthier than ever before!
