Invisalign®
A Virtually Invisible Way to Straighten Your Teeth
Invisalign® is a revolutionary leap in orthodontic technology that lets you straighten your teeth without your friends and family noticing! Dr. Balakrishnan is an experienced provider of Invisalign® in Downers Grove, IL, who has helped numerous patients improve the health and appearance of their smiles with this extraordinary alternative to braces.

The Benefits of Invisalign
- Discretion - With Invisalign's clear aligners, you can enjoy a nearly invisible way to straighten your teeth.
- Comfort - The series of clear removable aligners can straighten your teeth without wires or brackets. This lets you avoid the chafing and soreness that typically occurs with braces.
- Convenience - Invisalign's aligners are removable! That means you can eat and drink anything you want during treatment without worrying about damaging your appliance.
- Improved Health - Invisalign's smooth plastic aligners don't have the many nooks and crannies of traditional braces, where bacteria love to gather. In addition, you can remove your aligners to brush and floss normally, which makes it easier to maintain good oral hygiene.
How Does Invisalign Work?
If you are interested in starting treatment with Invisalign, we will first meet with you to ensure that you are a strong candidate for this treatment. Once that has been determined, we will make a digital impression of your teeth. This impression will be sent along with your customized treatment plan to Invisalign's lab. Invisalign then uses its advanced computer technology to calibrate a sequence of finely-tuned aligners made just for you. The total number of aligners you receive will depend upon the treatment plan developed by you and Dr. Balakrishnan.
You’ll wear each aligner for about two weeks, taking it out for eating, brushing, and flossing. As you replace each aligner with the next, your teeth will gradually move into their final alignment. You will need to visit our office approximately once every six weeks, so we can check your progress and give you your next aligners.
Is Invisalign Right for You?
Invisalign is not for everyone, but Dr. Balakrishnan can determine if it is right for you. As an experienced provider of Invisalign, Dr. Balakrishnan will work with you to identify whether you are eligible for clear aligner treatment, and will happily answer all of your questions about Invisalign and other orthodontic treatment options to ensure you receive the right treatment for your needs.
