Invisalign · Plantation, FL
Clear, removable aligners can straighten mild-to-moderate crowding and spacing without metal brackets for many adults and teens. Start with a free consultation with Dr. Lance Kamel to see whether Invisalign or braces fits your bite — with honest answers about cost and timing.
How it works
Invisalign moves teeth with a series of custom clear trays planned from a digital scan and exam. Each set applies gentle pressure for a short stage, then you switch to the next set.
The American Association of Orthodontists explains that aligners are worn at least 22 hours a day. Small tooth-colored attachments are sometimes added to help certain movements and are removed when treatment ends.
Benefits
Clear aligners fit busy lives — if you wear them as prescribed.
Clear trays are far less noticeable in meetings, photos, and school than metal brackets.
Remove trays for meals — no brackets to break or trap food.
Brush and floss normally without working around wires.
A removable option for many adults and teens when the bite allows.
Compare options
Both straighten teeth. The better choice depends on your bite and how consistently you’ll wear trays.
| Clear aligners (Invisalign) | Traditional braces | |
|---|---|---|
| Appearance | Nearly invisible | Visible brackets and wires |
| Removable | Yes — for meals and brushing | No |
| Best for | Mild-to-moderate crowding, spacing, and some bite issues | A wider range, including complex bites |
| Success depends on | Wearing trays about 22 hours a day | Keeping regular adjustment visits |
Severe jaw discrepancies or complex cases may need braces or a referral to a specialist. We’ll tell you honestly at your consult.
Candidacy
Adults and teens with healthy gums and mild-to-moderate alignment needs are often good candidates when they can wear trays as prescribed. Active gum disease or untreated decay needs care first.
Want to change tooth shade or shape too? Aligners can be paired with teeth whitening or porcelain veneers for a complete smile makeover.
Your journey
Most adult cases take about 12 to 18 months; mild cases can be faster and complex bites take longer.

Cost & financing
Invisalign cost depends on how much your teeth need to move, the number of trays, whether refinements are needed, and your retainers. We give you a clear estimate at your free consultation.
Ask every office what the fee includes through retainers. We offer flexible payment plans, including promotional 0% interest options when available, and help you check orthodontic insurance benefits.
