Contact UsWhat Is Invisalign Treatment?
Properly aligned teeth not only offer a beautiful smile, but they are typically healthier as they are easier to brush and floss. Dental concerns (including crowded teeth or an uneven bite) may also cause additional health complications that might impact your speaking and eating abilities. To straighten crooked teeth for an attractive, healthy smile, we are thrilled to offer Invisalign treatment to adults and teens in Washington, D.C. Invisalign treatment repositions teeth using clear, removable aligners, allowing for a less obvious appearance compared to metal braces. Schedule a visit with one of our dentists at Washington Elite Dentistry today to determine if Invisalign clear aligners are an ideal solution for you.
What Are The Benefits Of Invisalign Treatment?
At Washington Elite Dentistry, we advise our patients exploring Invisalign clear aligners to keep in mind the advantages their treatment can offer:
- Enhanced confidence in your smile and overall appearance
- A personalized solution for correcting crooked teeth, misalignment, and bite issues
- Swift and painless aligners that seamlessly integrate into your daily life
- Sanitary alternative to traditional braces and aligners
Should I Get Invisalign Aligners?
Teens and adults who prefer a less noticeable alternative to traditional metal braces may be ideal candidates for Invisalign teeth aligners. This alignment option is suitable for fixing malocclusion (an underbite, crossbite, open bite, or overbite), a narrow dental arch, crooked or overcrowded teeth, and gapped teeth. Resolving such problems can enhance jaw function, comfort, and speaking and eating abilities. Invisalign aligners are also easier to remove from the mouth, allowing Washington, DC, patients to enjoy their favorite foods without dietary restrictions and floss and brush their teeth without wires and brackets interfering with their efforts. During your consultation at Washington Elite Dentistry, a member of our team will take radiographs and provide an exam to decide if Invisalign aligners are an ideal choice for your smile.
How Do Invisalign Aligners Work?
Invisalign treatments work through a custom set of transparent removable teeth aligners that incrementally move your teeth into their desired place. To start your orthodontic care, our team will use the iTero® digital impression scanner to take impressions of your upper and lower teeth, which will be given to the special lab where your personalized aligners will be crafted. When these aligner trays are sent to our Washington, D.C. office, we will ask you to come in to receive your first pair and go over the instructions on how to use them. The aligner trays must be worn in your mouth for a minimum of 20 – 22 hours each day and only taken out just before brushing and flossing your teeth, eating, or drinking. Approximately every 1 – 2 weeks, you will need to trade your current pair of teeth aligners for the next in the series. We will help you set up follow-up exams so we can monitor your progress.

Invisalign® Treatment Reviews
This is a stellar dental facility! I am a patient with Washington Elite Dentistry and I am extremely pleased with the service and positive results. Prior to selecting Dr. Caroline Berman, founder and owner, I had the unfortunate experience of having a previous dentist fill a tooth on top of an abcess...needless to say this was a horrible and painful nightmare and causing extreme distrust with dentists. I'm extremely excited and pleased with both Dr. Berman, Dr. Khash, my cleaning, periodontal and Invisalign treatment plan and the awesome staff which are responsible for the beautiful results that are unfolding! Book your appointment today!!
Dr. Berman and her team are incredibly friendly and responsive running the practice like a well oiled machine. In a world where quality customer service has declined sharply, it is refreshing to be attended to by people who really care. The spotless office is conveniently located in downtown DC and every appointment moves quickly - but not rushed - showing the utmost respect for patients time. My Invisalign treatment and crown lengthening surgery went smoothly and I am ecstatic about the results. Dr. Berman delivered me the perfect smile I’ve wanted since adolescence. I would 15/10 recommend her practice to anyone seeking dental or orthodontic care.

About UsInvisalign® Treatment FAQs
Can I eat and drink with my Invisalign aligners?
No, it's recommended that you remove your Invisalign aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water. Consuming food or drinks, especially those that are sugary or acidic, can cause plaque and bacteria to get trapped under the aligners, leading to tooth decay. At Washington Elite Dentistry, we emphasize the importance of following these guidelines to ensure the best possible results from your Invisalign treatment.
How do I maintain my aligners for optimal hygiene?
Maintaining your aligners is a straightforward process but crucial for effective treatment. You should rinse them with lukewarm water whenever you remove them, and before putting them back into your mouth. In addition to your regular oral hygiene routine, use Invisalign cleaning solutions or a soft-bristled toothbrush with gentle soap to clean the aligners. Our dentists can guide you through the specifics during your regular check-ups.
What happens if I lose or break an aligner?
If you lose or break an aligner, it's essential to contact Washington Elite Dentistry as soon as possible to determine the best course of action. Depending on where you are in your treatment sequence, you may be advised to move on to the next set of aligners or wear a previous set until a replacement can be made. Losing or breaking an aligner can set back your treatment, so it's important to be cautious when handling them.
