Invisalign® in Georgetown, TX
There’s nothing wrong with traditional braces; they’ve worked for generations. But if you’re looking for something a little less noticeable, Bernuy Orthodontic Specialist offers Invisalign® in Georgetown, TX. Dr. Neker Bernuy helps teens and adults correct crowding, gaps, and bite issues using clear, custom-fit aligners instead of brackets and wires. If a discreet path to a straighter smile sounds appealing, let’s set up a consultation.
What Is Invisalign®?
Invisalign® uses a series of custom clear aligners to shift teeth gradually, without the brackets and wires used in traditional orthodontics. Each set is built from a digital scan of your teeth, so the fit is precise from the first tray, and the whole plan is mapped out on a computer before you wear a single aligner.
Because the trays are removable and nearly invisible, many patients find that others don’t notice they’re wearing them.
What Can Invisalign® Treat?
Invisalign® clear aligners can fix a wide range of alignment problems and often yield similar results to traditional braces.
Crowded Teeth
Aligners create room along the jaw and guide overlapping teeth into a straighter line.
Spacing and Gaps
Gaps between teeth close step by step as each aligner applies pressure in a new direction.
Overbites, Underbites, and Crossbites
Invisalign® can shift both arches so the upper and lower teeth meet properly.
Crooked or Rotated Teeth
Teeth that are rotated or erupted at an angle respond well to the steady force of each aligner.
Benefits of Invisalign®
Invisalign® is a good fit if you’d rather not draw attention to the fact that you’re straightening your teeth at all. The aligners are nearly invisible, and since you can take them out to eat, brush, and floss, keeping up with hygiene is a lot simpler than working around brackets.
There’s no metal or wire to irritate your cheeks or gums, and you’ll probably notice fewer office visits, too.
What to Expect During Invisalign® Treatment
It all starts with a digital scan. Dr. Bernuy examines your bite and uses that scan to map out your entire treatment plan from start to finish, so you’ll know what to expect before you even get your first tray.
From there, a series of custom aligners is made, each one picking up where the last left off and gradually shifting your teeth a little further along. You’ll wear each set for 20 to 22 hours a day, swapping to the next tray every 1 to 2 weeks. Along the way, you’ll check in with Dr. Bernuy every so often to make sure everything’s tracking as it should.
Once your teeth have reached their final position, a retainer keeps them from drifting back, protecting the results you worked for.

Enhance Your Results With Gingivectomy
Some patients finish Invisalign® with beautifully aligned teeth, only to find excess or uneven gum tissue covering more of the tooth than it should, making teeth look shorter or uneven. A gingivectomy is a gentle, in-office procedure that reshapes the tissue to create a cleaner, more balanced smile line.
This isn’t something every patient needs, and Dr. Bernuy will let you know during your consultation whether it’s a good fit for your finished results.
