Invisalign
Welcome to Sac Smiles, the premier destination for high-quality dental care in the Sacramento area. We are proud to offer a range of dental services to help our patients achieve healthy, beautiful smiles, including Invisalign clear aligners.
If you are looking for a discreet, comfortable, and effective way to straighten your teeth and achieve a confident smile, Invisalign may be the perfect solution for you. Here’s what you need to know about Invisalign and how Dr. Alex Mercado and his team at Sac Smiles can help you achieve your smile goals.
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a revolutionary orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually shift your teeth into their ideal position. Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible and can be removed for eating, brushing, and flossing.
Each set of aligners is custom-made for your unique dental needs and treatment goals. You will wear each set of aligners for about two weeks before switching to the next set in the series. Over time, your teeth will gradually shift into their ideal position, resulting in a straighter, more beautiful smile.
Benefits of Invisalign
There are several benefits to choosing Invisalign over traditional metal braces, including:
Discreet treatment: Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, making them a great choice for anyone who wants to straighten their teeth without the look of traditional braces.
Comfortable: Invisalign aligners are made of a smooth, comfortable plastic that won’t irritate your gums or cheeks like traditional braces.
Removable: Invisalign aligners are removable, so you can eat, brush, and floss with ease. This means you can continue to enjoy your favorite foods and maintain good oral hygiene throughout your treatment.
Effective: Invisalign is an effective orthodontic treatment that can address a wide range of dental issues, including crowding, spacing, and bite issues.

What to expect during your Invisalign treatment?
If you are considering Invisalign for your orthodontic treatment, you may be wondering what to expect during the treatment process. Here’s a general overview of what you can expect:
Consultation: During your initial consultation, Dr. Mercado will examine your teeth and discuss your treatment options with you. He will explain the Invisalign process and how it can be used to address your specific dental issues.
Treatment planning: If you decide to proceed with Invisalign, Dr. Mercado will take digital impressions of your teeth to create a 3D model of your mouth. He will use this model to plan your treatment and create your custom-made aligners.
Aligner wear: You will wear each set of Invisalign aligners for about two weeks before switching to the next set in the series. You should wear your aligners for at least 22 hours per day to ensure optimal results.
Follow-up visits: Dr. Mercado will schedule regular follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
Completion: Once your Invisalign treatment is complete, Dr. Mercado will provide you with retainers to help maintain your newly straightened smile.
At Sac Smiles, we are committed to providing our patients with the highest level of care and attention throughout their Invisalign treatment.
