Redmond Invisalign Dentist
Discreet teeth straightening treatment for teens and adults
Invisalign are the modern way to straighten your teeth
Straightening teeth when you’re an adult can be a difficult, but necessary, proposition. Not only can crooked or misaligned teeth lead to low self-esteem, but they can also lead to issues with your oral health over time.
Fortunately, modern invisalign treatment has made teeth straightening treatment achievable for teens and adults. Invisalign is discreet, meaning most people won’t even notice when you are wearing them. They are also removable, comfortable to wear, and custom-made for your unique smile and goals.

“Beyond any cosmetic issues, crooked or misaligned teeth can cause very real and serious issues with your oral health. This includes problems such as periodontal disease, bite misalignment, and loss of self-esteem. Invisalign such as Clear Correct and Reveal Clear Aligners provide a discreet way to quickly treat crooked teeth and get your oral health in order.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Invisalign effective?
Yes, Invisalign is highly effective when used as directed. They are a modern solution to straightening teeth without the discomfort and visibility of traditional braces. Invisalign work by applying consistent, gentle pressure to your teeth over time, gradually shifting them into their correct positions.
Their effectiveness, however, largely depends on the individual’s commitment to wearing the aligners for the recommended 20-22 hours a day. The treatment plan is also customized to each patient’s unique dental structure, ensuring a perfect fit and optimal results.
Moreover, Dr. Christopher Primley at Caldera Dental Group in Redmond, OR, has successfully treated numerous patients with clear aligners, attesting to their efficiency and effectiveness.
How painful is Invisalign?
The experience with Invisalign varies from person to person, but most patients report minimal discomfort. When you first begin wearing clear aligners, or when you switch to a new set in the series, you may experience some pressure and mild discomfort. This is a normal part of the process—it’s a sign that the aligners are working, gently moving your teeth to their desired positions.
However, this discomfort usually subsides within a few days. Invisalign is designed to fit snugly and comfortably in your mouth, and they don’t have the wires and brackets associated with traditional braces, which can cause sores and cuts in your mouth.
Do Invisalign make your teeth straight?
Absolutely, Invisalign are designed to make your teeth straight! They work in a similar way to traditional braces by applying controlled force to the teeth to move them into position. The main difference is that clear aligners are virtually invisible and can be removed for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.
The treatment process involves a series of aligners, each designed to make slight adjustments to the position of your teeth. As you switch to each new set of aligners (typically every one to two weeks), your teeth gradually move into their correct positions.
Dr. Christopher Primley of Caldera Dental Group in Redmond, OR, uses advanced 3D imaging technology to create a precise treatment plan and custom aligners that ensure the best results for each patient.
How long does Invisalign last?
The length of treatment with Invisalign varies depending on the complexity of the case. On average, treatment typically lasts between 6 to 18 months, but can be shorter or longer based on your individual needs.
Each set of aligners is typically worn for one to two weeks before moving on to the next set in the series. It’s important to wear your aligners for the recommended 20-22 hours per day and only remove them for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.
Regular check-ups with Dr. Christopher Primley at Caldera Dental Group will ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned, and adjustments can be made if necessary. Remember, the key to successful treatment with clear aligners is consistency and adherence to your unique treatment plan.

Lovely people. I felt very well taken care of. The hygienist worked with me to reduce the number of cleanings I needed per year by helping me improve my daily cleaning routine.
