Doctor Greg Wetterhus on Invisalign
Invisalign is a big part of our practice. We see patients every day. Most of the time it's somebody that's either had braces in their past or they have somewhat minor modifications that they need to do, and Invisalign can dramatically change their smile. Most cases are under a year, and then there's some revisions that we have to do, and then when they're all done with the Invisalign, then we have retainers that they wear just at night.
For someone who's done conventional orthodontics as a kid or has lost their retainers and they've had some movement of teeth, Invisalign is a great way of straightening out the teeth again. For most patients, it's a 10 months and under program. I think Invisalign is the way to go. It's a very aesthetic way of straightening your teeth.
- Straighten your teeth comfortably, without any metal in your mouth
- Enjoy a bright new smile in as few as 12 months

Straighten Your Teeth With Clear Teeth Aligners
Invisalign is one of our premier cosmetic treatments and has been straightening crooked teeth worldwide for over 20 years. We make a great treatment even better by using Invisalign’s ClinCheck® software to show you a preview of your new smile. You’ll see the end result before you ever begin treatment.
Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign uses a series of transparent teeth aligners to move your teeth into their correct positions. The aligners fit comfortably over your teeth and don’t contain any metal whatsoever. You won’t have to worry about uncomfortable wires or brackets poking sensitive tissues inside your mouth. Most people have little or no difficulty getting used to them.
You’ll wear each set of aligners for about two weeks before moving on to the next set in the series. For your convenience, we’ll supply you with several sets at each visit.
Since the aligners are clear, they are very difficult for others to see. In fact, your friends and coworkers may not even notice them unless you point them out. The only thing they will see is your teeth getting straighter and straighter by the week.
Many of our Invisalign patients complete their treatment in as few as 12 months. Just wear the aligners for at least 22 hours each day and you could, too! However, feel free to remove them for eating, brushing your teeth, and special occasions. They pop in and out easily.
If Invisalign treatment isn’t right for you, we do offer some appliances for tooth movement if necessary. Your dentist can give you more details when you visit us.
Invisalign in Puyallup is the teeth-straightening treatment you’ve been searching for! Call Smith & Wetterhus Dentistry today at 253-999-9419 to schedule your complimentary consultation.
