A Modern, Discreet Way to Straighten Your Smile
At Generations Family Dental, we are proud to provide patients in St. Albert with a comfortable, discreet, and effective orthodontic solution through Invisalign® clear aligners. Since 2014, our team has helped patients of all ages achieve straighter smiles using Invisalign® Full, Lite, and Teen systems—each tailored to different alignment needs.
Whether you’re looking to correct mild crowding or improve your bite, Invisalign® offers a flexible and nearly invisible alternative to traditional braces.
What Is Invisalign®?
Invisalign® is a modern orthodontic treatment that straightens teeth without metal wires or brackets. Instead, it uses a series of custom-made, clear plastic aligners designed specifically for your teeth.
Each set of aligners is worn for a designated period and gradually shifts your teeth into their ideal position based on a customized treatment plan created by your dental provider.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Invisalign®?
Invisalign® is ideal for individuals seeking effective orthodontic treatment with minimal disruption to their daily routine. You may be a good candidate if you:
- Have mild to moderate misalignment, including crowding, spacing, or minor bite issues
- Practice good oral hygiene, including regular brushing and flossing
- Are committed to wearing aligners 20–22 hours per day
- Do not have untreated tooth decay or gum disease
- Prefer a discreet, nearly invisible orthodontic option
At Generations Family Dental, every patient in St. Albert is assessed individually to ensure Invisalign® is the right solution for their unique dental needs.
