Invisalign® is the clear way to straighten teeth without braces, using aligners. Aligners are removable and virtually invisible, which means you can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing; and you can still eat and drink what you want. Also, you can brush and floss normally to maintain healthy gums and teeth; and there are no wires, metal or brackets to cause mouth abrasions.
Dr. Costopoulos was the first orthodontist in Novato to become certified in the Invisalign® technique, which is available to both adults and teens.
Many of our patients had never considered traditional braces but are now happily and comfortably improving their smiles with Invisalign.
