If your teeth are overlapped, there are noticeable gaps between your teeth, or your bite is misaligned, we have good news: you may not have to wear metal brackets and wires to transform your smile. At Connection Dentistry, we offer Invisalign, which uses a series of clear, see-through, and virtually undetectable trays to guide your teeth into their properly aligned positions.

How Invisalign Works

As you can imagine, the technology behind Invisalign is incredibly complex. Fortunately, the overall treatment process isn’t! After determining that you’re a candidate for Invisalign, one of our dedicated dentists in Raleigh will create a custom treatment plan designed to gently move your teeth from their current misaligned positions into their ideal, properly aligned positions. Then, you’ll be given a series of clear trays, and you’ll wear each one for 7-14 days, and for 20-22 hours a day.

Invisalign FAQs

Am I a good candidate for Invisalign in Raleigh, NC?

Most adults and teens with alignment or bite issues qualify. Your Raleigh dentist will evaluate your smile and recommend whether Invisalign is the ideal treatment.

Does dental insurance cover Invisalign in Raleigh, NC?

Some dental plans offer orthodontic coverage that includes Invisalign. Your Raleigh dentist can check benefits and help maximize savings.

What Does Invisalign Look Like?

Invisalign uses clear, custom-fit plastic aligners instead of metal brackets, making them a discreet option many Raleigh patients love. They sit snugly over your teeth and are virtually invisible, so your natural smile shows through. In some cases, small tooth-colored attachments or elastics may be added, but they remain subtle and barely noticeable.

Does Invisalign Hurt?

You may experience mild pressure or soreness when you first start Invisalign or switch to a new set of trays, but this typically subsides quickly. The smooth plastic aligners are much gentler than metal braces and won’t irritate your cheeks or gums. Overall, most patients find Invisalign significantly more comfortable than traditional orthodontics.

How Long Does Invisalign Usually Take to Complete in Raleigh, NC?

Most patients complete Invisalign in Raleigh treatment within 12–18 months, although the exact timeline varies based on your smile needs. More complex alignment issues may require additional time. Wearing your aligners 20–22 hours a day is essential to avoid delays and keep your progress on track.

Are There Dietary Restrictions with Invisalign?

No, since Invisalign aligners are removable, there are no food restrictions! Just take them out before eating and store them safely. Avoid drinking hot or dark beverages with trays in, as they can stain or warp them. Patients choosing Invisalign in Raleigh love the flexibility to enjoy all their favorite foods while straightening their smile.

I've been coming to this practice for years now since moving to the Raleigh area. The office is always clean and organized and the staff have always been friendly and communicative. Also, the TV's mounted to the ceiling are a nice touch! I've been seeing Dr. Laster for several years before our insurance changed causing me to change to Dr. Rensch. Both are so easy to talk to and always made me feel at ease.

From beginning to end 5/5! I thought I was experiencing a dental 911. I submitted an inquiry at 11:30pm and by 8am the next morning, Deidra (front office staff) was already leaving me a message. She was so sweet and patient at 8am lol. After our initial conversation, I informed all follow up dentists “I found my dentist office” but thank you so much! Today I was welcomed with the same energy from Diedre to Britany then finally Dr.Wrench. The music playing throughout the office was fantastic; ie music selection and volume. The TV’s on the ceiling and wall made my procedure so painless and enjoyable! I watched an entire Christmas movie lol! Dr. Wrench (apologies for spelling) made my teeth absolutely perfect! I left telling my friends and family I have a million dollar smile! 😊 I can tell he wanted them perfect and he did! Thank you all so much for being amazing! Sincerely, Your next patient.

Dr. Laster and Dr. Rensch go above and beyond for their patients. I have seen both for various treatments and I always feel comfortable and heard. They take time to listen and to talk with you. They explain your options and work with you to develop the best plan for your care. They are always upbeat and positive and you can tell they truly love what they do. The front desk staff is exceptional as well. Deidre is so caring and very sweet. She’s efficient, understanding and conscientious of your time. I highly recommend.

Connections Dentistry was great! The staff is so friendly and truly cares about their patients. My appointment was quick, and honestly the best dental experience I’ve had. They are great about offering helpful solutions without making you feel like you are being reprimanded… which was the reason I was putting off the dentist. 100% recommend!
