Comfort Smiles Ann Arbor — Certified Invisalign Provider
Straighten your smile discreetly, comfortably, and on your schedule. No metal brackets. No wires. No food restrictions. Just a straighter, healthier smile — designed around your life.
Honestly, it’s the shift in orthodontics we’ve all been waiting for. For decades, straightening teeth meant committing to metal brackets, tightening wires, and a long list of foods you couldn’t eat. Invisalign changes all of that.
Invisalign uses a custom-made series of clear, smooth plastic aligners to gently and gradually shift your teeth into their proper positions. There are no brackets to attach and no wires to tighten. You simply pop in a new set of aligners every week or two, until your treatment is complete.
You know what the best part is? Because the aligners are completely removable, your daily life barely changes. Want to eat an apple? Pop them out. Need to brush and floss? Pop them out. Going to a special event in downtown Ann Arbor? You can take them out for the evening. It’s orthodontic treatment that actually respects your lifestyle.
At Comfort Smiles of Ann Arbor, we’ve helped hundreds of patients — both teens and adults — achieve the confident smiles they deserve without the hassle of traditional braces.
Many patients assume clear aligners only fix minor cosmetic issues. The truth is, advanced Invisalign technology can now correct complex bite problems that previously required metal braces.
When your jaw doesn’t have enough room for all your teeth, they bunch up, overlap, and twist. Beyond looking crooked, crowded teeth create hiding spots where your toothbrush can’t reach—leading to cavities and gum disease. Invisalign gently expands the arch and guides each tooth into its ideal position.
Extra space between teeth leaves your gums exposed and vulnerable to periodontal disease. Clear aligners systematically close these spaces, creating a tight, protective, and uniform smile.
A misaligned bite causes uneven wear on your enamel and puts immense strain on your jaw joint (TMJ). Invisalign — often paired with subtle tooth-colored attachments — can successfully shift the jaw and teeth into a healthy, comfortable resting alignment.
When upper and lower front teeth don’t meet when biting down, it creates difficulty chewing and speech issues. Invisalign with precision attachments effectively corrects open bites that once required surgery or complex appliances.
A crossbite occurs when some upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth. Left untreated, it causes uneven tooth wear, gum recession, and bone loss. Invisalign’s precise digital planning corrects crossbites predictably and comfortably.
Teeth that have shifted back after previous orthodontic treatment are one of the most common cases we see. Invisalign is an ideal, discreet solution to re-align teeth without going through metal braces again.
We get this question every single day: “Should I get braces or Invisalign?” For the vast majority of our adult and teen patients in Ann Arbor, the answer leans heavily toward clear aligners.
Traditional braces are highly effective—but they come with a significant lifestyle cost. You have to avoid hard or sticky foods, brushing and flossing require special tools, and a broken wire means an unplanned emergency visit to our office.
Invisalign removes almost all of this friction. Your diet stays the same. Your brushing routine stays exactly the same. And most of your coworkers, friends, and family won’t even realize you’re in orthodontic treatment.
The proof is in the smiles. Our patients in Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti, Saline, and the surrounding communities have achieved remarkable transformations with Invisalign at Comfort Smiles.
Crowded teeth that made patients self-conscious for years. Gaps that had been there since childhood. Bites that caused daily headaches. All corrected discreetly, comfortably, and on a schedule that fit their lives.
At your free consultation, we’ll show you a digital simulation of what your own smile could look like after treatment. No guesswork. No surprises. Just a clear, predictable path to the smile you’ve always wanted.
Wondering what to expect? The process is remarkably straightforward, completely painless, and powered by the most advanced digital technology in dentistry.
Step 01
You’ll meet with one of our experienced doctors to discuss your smile goals. We’ll examine your bite, review your dental history, and confirm whether Invisalign is the right clinical choice for your specific needs.
Step 02
No messy, gag-inducing putty impressions. We use an iTero digital intraoral scanner to capture a precise, 3D model of your teeth in just a few minutes. It’s comfortable, fast, and incredibly accurate.
Step 03
Using Invisalign’s ClinCheck software, we map out every precise tooth movement. You’ll actually see a digital simulation of your future smile before you commit to a single tray. It’s one of our patients’ favorite moments.
Step 04
Your custom aligners arrive. Wear them for 20–22 hours a day, removing them only to eat, drink (anything but water), brush, and floss. Switch to a new tray every 1–2 weeks as your teeth gradually shift.
Step 05
Every 6–8 weeks, you’ll pop into our Ann Arbor office for a quick check-in. We confirm your teeth are tracking perfectly with the digital plan and hand you your next sets of aligners.
Remember those trays of thick, gooey putty that made you gag? We’ve eliminated that experience at Comfort Smiles.
Our iTero Element digital scanner captures a highly accurate, full-color 3D model of your teeth in under five minutes. It’s completely comfortable — just a small wand that we gently move around your mouth while you relax in the chair.
The digital scan is then sent directly to Invisalign’s labs, where your custom aligners are precision-manufactured to fit your teeth perfectly. The result is a more accurate fit, faster treatment, and a far more comfortable experience from start to finish.
Successful Invisalign treatment requires more than just plastic trays. It requires an experienced clinician to design the precise biomechanical movements that deliver healthy, lasting results. Our award-winning team has the expertise to guide your smile safely.

We know cost is a major factor when considering orthodontic treatment. A lot of patients assume that because Invisalign is the modern, “invisible” option, it must cost significantly more than traditional braces. In reality, the costs are often very comparable — and with our flexible financing, it’s far more accessible than most people expect.
At Comfort Smiles, we believe financial concerns should never stand between you and a healthy, confident smile. That’s why we offer multiple payment options that fit almost any budget.
