Invisalign San Antonio

Want straighter teeth without traditional braces? With advanced orthodontic training and certification from the Academy of General Practice Orthodontics, Dr. Chris Cappetta provides Invisalign clear aligner treatment tailored to each patient’s needs. Invisalign offers a nearly invisible, removable alternative to braces that fits comfortably into daily life.

Dr. Cappetta designs treatment plans that guide you through a series of custom aligners, each set gently moving your teeth closer to their ideal position. Because aligners can be removed for meals, brushing, and special occasions, patients often find Invisalign more flexible and convenient than traditional braces.

Starting Invisalign treatment is straightforward, and most patients find it more comfortable than they expected. Here’s what a typical clear aligner journey looks like:

• First few days – Aligners may feel snug at first. This is a normal sign that they’re gently moving your teeth. Any slight speech changes usually fade within a few days.
• Treatment routine – You’ll switch to new aligners every 1–2 weeks as your teeth gradually shift. Each set feels tight briefly, then becomes comfortable.
• Daily flexibility – Aligners are removed for meals and special occasions but should be worn 20–22 hours daily for the best results. Most patients find this easy to adapt to.
• Visible progress – Improvements are often noticeable within the first few months. Dr. Cappetta will check your progress at regular appointments to ensure treatment stays on track.

Treatment length varies, but many patients complete Invisalign in about 12–18 months, depending on their needs.
