Invisalign® Clear Aligners in North York

Straighter teeth, without the metal.

Maybe you’ve thought about straightening your teeth for years, but the idea of metal braces held you back. Invisalign® offers a more discreet way to get there.

At Dr. T Dental Studio, we help adults and teens across North York straighten their smile with clear, custom-made aligners that fit into everyday life.

What Is Invisalign®?

Invisalign® uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gently move your teeth into place. Each set is made for your teeth and worn for a set period before you move on to the next.

Because the aligners are clear, most people won’t notice you’re wearing them.

What Invisalign® Can Help With

Not every case is right for clear aligners. At your consultation, we'll tell you honestly whether Invisalign® is a good fit for your smile.

Crowded teeth
Overbite, underbite and crossbite (in many cases)
Gaps between teeth
Teeth that have shifted after braces
Crooked or rotated teeth

Part of Your Smile Makeover

Invisalign® often works well with other cosmetic treatments. Some patients straighten first, then brighten with teeth whitening or refine the shape of a tooth with bonding. Learn more about cosmetic dentistry and smile makeovers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does Invisalign® take?

It depends on how much your teeth need to move. Some cases are short, while others take longer. We’ll give you an estimate at your consultation.

How many hours a day do I wear my aligners?

For the best results, aligners need to be worn most of the day and night. We’ll go over exactly what’s needed for your treatment.

Does Invisalign® hurt?

You may feel some pressure when you switch to a new set of aligners. That’s a sign they’re working, and it usually eases within a few days.

Is Invisalign® covered by insurance?

Some dental plans include coverage for orthodontic treatment. We’re happy to help you check your plan.

Am I too old for Invisalign®?

Many adults straighten their teeth with clear aligners. Healthy teeth and gums matter more than age.
