Invisalign in Atlanta
Metal braces can feel conspicuous and restrictive, making many adults and teens hesitant to pursue orthodontic treatment. The thought of metal brackets and wires affecting your appearance for months or years can be a significant barrier to getting the straight smile you want.
At Rose Dental in Tucker, we offer Invisalign clear aligners as a virtually invisible alternative to traditional braces. These removable aligners allow you to straighten your teeth discreetly while maintaining your lifestyle and confidence throughout treatment. With advanced 3D computer imaging technology, Invisalign provides predictable results without the metal and wires of conventional orthodontics.
What Is Invisalign?
Invisalign treatment uses a series of virtually invisible, removable, and comfortable aligners that allow you to smile confidently during treatment as well as after. Each aligner is custom-made using 3D computer imaging technology to fit your teeth precisely and move them gradually into their desired positions.
Invisalign clear aligners have been proven effective through extensive clinical research and real-world application. More than 70% of orthodontists in the US and Canada are certified to administer Invisalign treatment, demonstrating its widespread acceptance in the dental community. Millions of people worldwide have achieved straighter smiles using this innovative system.
Benefits of Invisalign Clear Aligners
Invisalign offers numerous advantages over traditional braces. The aligners are virtually invisible, allowing you to straighten your teeth without drawing attention to your orthodontic treatment. This makes Invisalign particularly appealing for adults in professional settings and teens who feel self-conscious about braces.
The removable design means you can eat and drink what you want during treatment without dietary restrictions. Simply remove your aligners before meals and put them back in afterward. This removability also makes brushing and flossing easier, helping you maintain better oral hygiene throughout treatment compared to fixed braces.
Invisalign aligners are more comfortable than traditional braces, with no metal brackets or wires to irritate your cheeks and gums. This typically means fewer emergency visits to address broken brackets or poking wires. Most patients also spend less time in the dental office for adjustments, as you simply switch to your next set of aligners at home every two weeks.
How Invisalign Treatment Works
Your Invisalign journey begins with a consultation where we determine if clear aligners are right for your case. We’ll take digital impressions of your teeth and use advanced 3D imaging to create a virtual treatment plan. This technology allows you to see how your straight teeth will look when your treatment is complete, giving you a preview of your future smile before you even begin.
Once your custom aligners are ready, you’ll receive several sets at once. You wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth move little by little, week by week, until they’ve straightened to their final positions.
You’ll visit us about once every six weeks to ensure your treatment is progressing as planned. Total treatment time averages nine to 15 months, and the average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but both vary from case to case depending on your specific needs and goals.
Conditions Invisalign Can Treat
Invisalign can effectively address many common orthodontic concerns. The system works well for treating crowded teeth, where there’s not enough room in your jaw for all your teeth to fit normally. It can also correct spacing issues where you have gaps between teeth.
Invisalign treats various bite problems, including overbite (where upper teeth overlap lower teeth too much), underbite (where lower teeth protrude past upper teeth), and crossbite (where some upper teeth sit inside lower teeth when you bite). The system can also address open bite, where upper and lower teeth don’t touch when your mouth is closed.
During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your specific case to determine if Invisalign is the most appropriate treatment for your orthodontic needs. Some complex cases may require alternative approaches or combination treatments.
Invisalign and Holistic Dentistry
Invisalign treatment aligns well with Rose Dental’s holistic approach to dental care. The removable design promotes better oral hygiene during orthodontic treatment, reducing the risk of decay and gum inflammation that can occur with fixed braces. This supports your overall oral health while you’re achieving a straighter smile.
The comfort and convenience of Invisalign also mean less stress during treatment. You can remove your aligners for important events, maintain your normal diet, and care for your teeth as you always have. This lifestyle compatibility makes orthodontic treatment more manageable and less disruptive to your daily life.

Frequently Asked Questions About Invisalign
How much does Invisalign cost in Atlanta?
Invisalign costs vary based on treatment complexity and duration, typically ranging from $3,000-$8,000. During your consultation at Rose Dental, Dr. Aaron will evaluate your case and provide specific pricing. We accept most PPO insurance plans, and many cover orthodontic treatment for adults and teens. We also offer CareCredit payment plans and Wellness Plan discounts. Call (678) 528-6747 to discuss costs and financing options.
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
Invisalign treatment typically takes 9-15 months, though duration varies based on your specific case complexity. You’ll wear each set of aligners for about two weeks before switching to the next set. During your consultation, Rose Dental’s 3D imaging shows exactly how your teeth will move and provides a specific timeline estimate before treatment begins, giving you clear expectations.
Can I eat normally with Invisalign?
Yes, you can eat all your favorite foods with Invisalign. Simply remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything except water, then brush your teeth and reinsert them afterward. This removable design eliminates the dietary restrictions associated with traditional braces. For optimal results, wear your aligners 20-22 hours daily, removing them only for meals and oral hygiene.
Is Invisalign effective for adults?
Absolutely. Invisalign effectively treats adults with crowding, spacing, overbite, underbite, crossbite, and open bite issues. Many adults prefer Invisalign because the virtually invisible aligners don’t affect professional appearance. The removable design also makes maintaining oral hygiene easier than with traditional braces. Dr. Aaron has completed specialized Invisalign training and treats both adult and teen patients at Rose Dental.
Does Invisalign hurt or feel uncomfortable?
Invisalign typically causes minimal discomfort. You may feel slight pressure when starting each new aligner set as teeth begin moving, but this usually subsides within 1-2 days and indicates the aligners are working. The smooth plastic construction eliminates irritation from metal brackets and wires. Most patients adjust quickly and find aligners comfortable to wear throughout treatment.
Can Invisalign fix gaps between teeth?
Yes, Invisalign effectively closes gaps between teeth by gradually shifting them into proper alignment. The custom aligners apply controlled pressure to move teeth together naturally. Treatment duration for gap closure depends on gap size and location. Rose Dental’s 3D treatment planning shows you exactly how your gaps will close throughout treatment, providing confidence in your results before you begin.
