Clear Invisalign® treatment is a welcoming alternative to braces for most people seeking teeth straightening. The fact that they are removable, discreet, and almost invisible makes them very appealing as a treatment. They work well for many different conditions like underbites, overbites, and crooked teeth, among other malocclusions.
