Upgrade your smile with Invisalign today. The best thing about Invisalign is it doesn’t use metal wires or brackets to straighten your teeth like traditional braces. Instead, a clear piece of plastic gets the job done and is virtually unnoticeable to other people. The professional orthodontists at PacificWest Dental Group will get the job done with ease. We are a proud provider of Invisalign and are creating better smiles every day.
Why Choose Invisalign to Straigthen Your Teeth?
Invisalign is an effective way to straighten your teeth. Instead of using metal wires and brackets (like normal braces), Invisalign is a piece of clear plastic that you would wear to straighten your teeth. The best part is – it is unnoticeable to other people. That is why many people choose to use Invisalign in Surrey to straighten their teeth.
Invisalign treatment solves many dental problems. Using the latest orthodontic technology, these clear braces boost your confidence and help your smile look its best. The before and after results are stunning for both teens and adults. Patients with crowded teeth, irregular spacing, open bite, underbite, and overbite can all benefit from Invisalign treatment. If you are ready to fix your teeth, speak to one of our orthodontists to learn more about the procedure.
Main benefits of using Invisalign:
Highly effective for teeth straigthening
Almost invisible when wearing it
Faster results
Comfortable to wear, no poking
Easy to eat, floss and clean
What is Invisalign and How Does it Work?
A series of clear, removable aligners are produced at the start of the treatment. Each aligner set is worn for about a two week period; you remove them to eat, drink, brush and floss your teeth and you must wear them the rest of the time. At the end of the two week period (or the time period prescribed by your treatment plan), you replace the aligner with the next set in the series.
This continues for the whole dental program prescribed. Your teeth are being moved by these aligners until they have straightened to the correct position. Every six weeks, you will need to visit our office to check on the progress and ensure that the re-alignment is proceeding according to the plan.

Schedule a visit to one of our orthodontists at PacificWest
Your Invisalign journey starts with a consultation with Dr. Wang or Dr. Lee at one of our offices, or virtually through an online video chat. . The essence of your initial one-on-one consultation is for us to hear your needs, evaluate your specific condition, and come up with treatment options that are best suited for you. We will discuss the difference between appliances, give you the estimated treatment time, and provide you a quote of the estimated fee. , We will also answer any questions that you might have to make sure you are comfortable with the proposed treatment plan before starting your treatment.
Collection of diagnostic record
The next line of action is to collect a complete set of diagnostic record of you, which include:digital photos of your teeth and face, digital x-ray of all of your teeth and the skull, and a3-D scan of your teeth. Using these records, the doctors will complete the analysis of your case and finalize the treatment plan. These records are then sent to the Invisalign lab, which will convert the records into a 3D model of your teeth on a computer software called the clincheck. The doctor will then spend around 2-3 weeks communicating with the Invisalign lab technician to program and sequence the entire movement of your teeth from start to finish. Once the doctor is happy with the planned movement, he will approve the case for Invisalign to manufacture the aligners.
Fitting your first Invisalign Aligner
When your custom-built Invisalign aligners arrives, your doctor will invite you to fit your first Invisalign tray. This tray is made of BPA free plastic, specifically engineered to exert the optimal amount of force to move teeth in an efficient but healthy manner. . For the best result, it is required for you to wear the aligners for 20 to 22 hours per day. This means you should only remove the aligners to eat, brush or floss. We will teach you how to properly insert and remove your aligners, proper oral hygiene technique, and help you download the MyInvisalign app on your smart phone to help you keep track of your progress.
Follow-up sessions and checkups
Your orthodontist will instruct you on how often you should change your aligners, the frequency ranges from 7-14 days per aligner Each new aligner feels somewhat different because it is meant to move, adapt, and put your teeth into place until everything is wholly refined. However, the success and the length of your Invisalign treatment also depends on your commitment. An analogy we often tell our patients is in this journey, we take control of the steering wheel and navigation, but the patients are in charge of the gas pedal and how fast we get there. So we need your help with wearing the aligners properly, keeping your teeth clean, and showing up to your checkup appointments.
It’s time to show off your beautiful and healthy smile
You’ve worked hard to wear the aligners faithfully and have completed the treatment, congratulations! In your debond appointment, we will remove all the attachments from your teeth and give them a quick polish. We will take another set of records to document the beautiful result that we are all proud to show off. But most importantly, we will make you a set of retainers to maintain the teeth in its perfect position. This is because the bones around the teeth need time to solidify and heal up. This process usually takes between 3-6 months to complete. Afterwards, we still recommend patients to wear a retainer every night for the first year, and slowly taper down to 1-2 nights per week thereafter for the rest of the life. Who says you can’t have an attractive, healthy smile that will last a lifetime?

Common Conditions of Orthodontics
At PacificWest Dental Group in Surrey, we are passionate about providing our patients with quality orthodontic treatments. We care about you and your family, and we treat a range of conditions. Here are the types of malocclusions we resolve through various means, including braces and Invisalign. Dr. Wang and Dr. Lee are here for all your Surrey orthodontic needs.
Invisalign can be used to treat these common teeth alignment issues:
Crowded Teeth
Crowded teeth or overcrowding occurs when the jaw bone is too small for teeth to grow straight into the mouth. It causes teeth to rotate and overlap against each other to fit in. The result is crookedness and misalignment.
Irregular Spacing
The teeth must be a certain shape and size to fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. If a tooth doesn’t fit properly, it can cause issues. Dr. Wang and Dr. Lee understand how to address this issue. Invisalign braces are a great treatment option.
Open Bite
An open bite happens when the front upper and lower teeth slant outwardly. It stops them from touching one another when the patient bites down. At PacificWest Dental Group, our staff understands how to correct bite issues using Invisalign braces.
Under Bite
Underbite occurs when the teeth along the lower jaw protrude out farther than the upper front teeth. It happens because of incorrect jaw alignment. With our expertise in dentistry, Dr. Lee and Dr. Wang can help you with orthodontic treatments such as Invisalign.
Over Bite
When the upper jaw and teeth extend too far over the teeth on the lower jaw, resulting in the appearance of a protrusive upper lip and teeth, or buck teeth, overbite is the culprit. The issue is common and can be addressed with Invisalign. Consult with Dr. Lee and Dr. Wang to find the right option for you.
Cross Bite
A cross bite is present when a tooth or several teeth are too close to the cheek or tongue. It prevents the teeth from biting against each other normally, making it harder to chew. Everyone, from teens to adults, can have this bite issue. During your consultation appointment with Dr. Lee or Dr. Wang at our Surrey office, you can learn about various treatment options, including Invisalign, which is quickly growing in popularity.
Deep Bite
When there’s too much overlapping between the top and bottom front teeth, a deep bite occurs. Patients might not even realize they have a deep bite until they book their first appointment. That’s what Dr. Lee and Dr. Wang are here for. As experts in orthodontics, our staff focuses on making patients feel comfortable and safe during their appointment.
