Straight teeth and a well-aligned bite can mean much more than a beautiful smile. They have functional value and are beneficial for your health too. When you seek orthodontic treatment for your child or yourself, Dr. Harris can help you with the right treatment options. Besides other orthodontic treatments, we also specialize in Invisalign & iTero technology.
What Is Invisalign?
Since its inception, Invisalign has brought a revolutionary change in the field of orthodontics. The technology is always evolving to enhance the results in straightening teeth and beautifying smiles faster, while offering longer-lasting results.

It involves the use of clear, soft, and removable aligners that will gradually align your teeth. The aligner trays are comfortable and fit perfectly over your teeth. We regularly use Invisalign & iTero technology for correcting mild to moderate overcrowding and spacing problems in our patients. Our patients’ Invisalign smile journey begins with the iTero Element intraoral scanner.
When to Seek Invisalign Treatment?
Invisalign is a good option for patients with the following mild to moderate orthodontic problems:
- Gaps between teeth
- Overbite
- Crossbite
- Underbite
- Open bite
- Teeth crowding
Dr. Peyton Harris, our orthodontist, will evaluate your bite and suggest the right orthodontic treatment to meet your needs and lifestyle.
What are iTero Intraoral Scanners?
iTero is an innovative 3D imagery technology that works for Invisalign system optimization. The Invisalign Outcome Simulator application relies on iTero scanners to allow our patients to visualize how their teeth will eventually look after the completion of the treatment.
The simulated results can be shared with patients to help them make the right decisions even before the treatment begins. The technology also features a Progress Assessment tool. It allows us and our patients to check whether their Invisalign treatment is on track. We know how important this can be for our patients’ satisfaction.
The iTero intraoral scanners provide advantages in the form of:
- Greater speed
- Intuitive operations
- Reliability
- Exceptional visualization capabilities
Invisalign and iTero scanner is a proven technology that has also been used in millions of restorative treatments and custom implant abutment cases. Tens of millions of iTero orthodontic scans have been completed so far.
