Learn about clear orthodontic treatment with our dentists who do Invisalign in the Dublin, California, community.
Dr. Munira Lokhandwala and Dr. Maryum Tariq of the StarBrite Dental office in Dublin, California, are dedicated dentists serving patients in Dublin and the surrounding communities. In addition to general, cosmetic, and restorative dentistry, our team provides orthodontic treatment with Invisalign aligners. Let’s look at some of the more frequently asked questions about this service from our experienced dentists doing Invisalign service.
What is Invisalign, and how does it work?
Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gently shift teeth into alignment. These aligners are custom-made for your smile and designed to fit snugly over your teeth. By wearing them consistently, you will see gradual changes as your teeth move to their ideal positions.
Is Invisalign uncomfortable to wear?
Not at all! Invisalign aligners are created using smooth plastic, so there’s no poking or irritation like you might experience with traditional braces. While you might feel a bit of pressure when you switch to a new set of aligners, this means they’re working to move your teeth, and the feeling usually goes away quickly.

Can I eat whatever I want with Invisalign?
Yes! Since our Invisalign aligners are removable, you can always enjoy all your favorite foods. Just take your aligners out before eating, and remember to brush and floss before placing them back in to keep your teeth and aligners clean.
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
Treatment length can vary depending on your customized and unique needs, but most people complete Invisalign treatment in twelve to eighteen months. Your team at StarBrite Dental will give you a personalized timeline during your initial consultation.
How often do I need to wear the aligners?
Wear your Invisalign aligners for twenty to twenty-two hours each day to achieve the best results. Only remove them when you eat, drink (anything other than water), brush, or floss.
Are Invisalign aligners noticeable?
Not really! Invisalign aligners are extremely clear and designed to be very discreet, so most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them. They’re a great option for straightening your teeth without paying attention to the process.
What happens after I finish my Invisalign treatment?
Once you’ve completed your treatment, you’ll likely need to wear a retainer to keep your teeth in their new positions. Your orthodontist at our office can guide you on how often to wear it to maintain your beautiful new smile.
