The Best Clear Aligners in Beverly Hills

Advanced Clear Aligner Technology

Do you want to straighten your teeth without dealing with the hassle of brackets and wires from regular braces? Then clear plastic aligners, such as Invisalign, are for you! Dr. Jonathan Shouhed has helped many of his patients at West LA Orthodontics in Beverly Hills achieve beautiful smiles with the best clear aligners.

What Are Clear Aligners?

Clear Aligners can straighten your teeth and correct malocclusions (jaw misalignments) using a system of clear plastic trays. A revolutionary alternative to traditional metal braces, the aligners can give you a beautiful smile without brackets, wires or frequent tightening. Typically, aligners are worn for 22 hours a day and are only removed to eat and drink (except for water), and to clean and floss your teeth. The treatment plan usually includes switching to a new set of aligners every two weeks to maintain your progress. You will receive several sets of aligners at each checkup, which is scheduled every two and a half to three months. Each new set will slightly adjust your teeth, bringing you one step closer to your perfect smile.

Dr. J offers two different types of aligners:

Are Aligners Better Than Braces?

The speed at which Invisalign works is one of its most important benefits. You'll start seeing progress just a few weeks after starting treatment, which typically takes between 12 and 18 months. Don’t wait to get the smile you’ve always wanted! Schedule your Invisalign appointment in Beverly Hills today by calling our orthodontics office or request an appointment below.

Comfort

Clear plastic aligners are snug-fitting and don’t feel bulky and uncomfortable inside your mouth like braces sometimes do. We use our state-of-the-art iTero® Element™ digital scanner to custom-make your aligners so they fit perfectly!

Convenience

You don't need any special tools to keep your teeth clean during clear aligner treatment. It's just a matter of removing your aligners, brushing, flossing, and popping them back into your mouth again. Easy!

Discretion

Clear plastic aligners are virtually invisible, unlike traditional braces which can be quite noticeable. Your friends won’t even know you are wearing them!

What Conditions Can Be Treated with Clear Aligners?

Clear plastic aligner treatments in Beverly Hills are an effective solution for treating many of the same orthodontic conditions that traditional metal braces are used to correct, such as:

  • Overbite
  • Underbite
  • Crossbite
  • Gapped teeth
  • Open bite
  • Crowded teeth

Invisalign is also a popular treatment option for people who are looking to achieve straighter teeth for general aesthetics. Dr. J is highly skilled and experienced in treating all different kinds of bite issues and misalignments with Invisalign. He sees many patients who are told by another dentist that Invisalign will not help fix their orthodontic issues because their problem is considered too severe. However, Dr. J can create a treatment plan to give you the smile you have always wanted, even for complex cases.

What Happens at My Clear Aligner Appointment in Beverly Hills?

Looking for the best orthodontist in Beverly Hills for Invisalign? Dr. J and his expert team utilize state-of-the-art technology to offer the easiest and most efficient appointment. They begin your Invisalign appointment by taking a digital scan of your teeth with our state-of-the-art iTero® Element™ scanner, which uses a small intraoral camera to take a series of digital pictures of your bite, smile, and the inside of your mouth.

Next, they use digital images and a specialized pre-planning software program to create a virtual model of your teeth and map out all of the “steps” necessary to get your smile from its current alignment to your target alignment. He sends this information to a lab that creates a series of clear plastic aligners modeled after each of these steps.

You wear these aligners over your teeth, and they exert a small amount of pressure, slowly shifting your teeth toward the next "step" in your orthodontic journey. Invisalign aligners are worn all the time for 22 hours a day except when you brush, floss, eat, or drink (except for water). Your clear aligners are changed every two weeks until your teeth and jaw are aligned properly and your dream smile is achieved.
