Invisalign in Prairieville
A Clear, Comfortable Way to Straighten Your Smile
At Ascension Premier Dental, we offer Invisalign treatment to help patients in Prairieville achieve beautifully straight smiles—without the hassle of metal braces. Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, nearly invisible aligners that fit comfortably over your teeth and gradually move them into alignment.
Under the care of Dr. Calvin G. Bessonet III, you’ll receive a personalized orthodontic plan designed to fit your lifestyle, whether you're a teen or adult seeking a discreet, removable option for orthodontic care. With advanced scanning technology and detailed treatment tracking, Invisalign offers precise and predictable results.
How Invisalign Works
The Invisalign system involves a sequence of clear aligner trays that are changed out every 1 to 2 weeks. Each set is designed to move your teeth incrementally toward their final position.
The process includes:
- Initial Consultation with digital scans using our TRIOS Digital Scanner
- 3D Treatment Planning to map out your smile transformation
- Custom Aligner Fabrication
- Regular Progress Checks every 6–8 weeks
- Final Retainer to maintain your new smile
We combine Invisalign with our practice’s advanced imaging tools, including 3D CT Scanning, to ensure precision from start to finish.
Benefits of Invisalign Over Traditional Braces
Patients choose Invisalign for a wide range of reasons:
- Virtually invisible appearance
- Removable for eating, brushing, and flossing
- More comfortable than brackets and wires
- Fewer in-office visits compared to traditional braces
- No dietary restrictions
Unlike Braces, Invisalign lets you enjoy your usual lifestyle without drawing attention to your treatment.
What to Expect From Your Invisalign Treatment
Treatment time varies depending on your specific needs, but most cases range from 6 to 18 months. Dr. Bessonet will evaluate your bite, spacing, and alignment issues to determine the best path forward.
We recommend Invisalign for patients with:
- Mild to moderate crowding or spacing
- Overbite, underbite, or crossbite
- Shifting teeth after previous orthodontic work
