At Cosmetic Dentistry of San Antonio, one of the most common questions we hear is:
“Is Invisalign just for looks?”
Not at all. Invisalign does more than straighten teeth—it helps prevent wear, chipping, gum problems, and even reduces your risk for serious health issues like heart disease. Proper alignment improves function, makes teeth easier to clean, and supports long-term oral health. In many cases, it’s a medically necessary treatment—not just cosmetic.
“Am I too old for Invisalign?”
Never. We’ve successfully treated patients in their 70s—and even 80s. Thanks to modern dentistry, it’s now possible to maintain your natural teeth for life, and orthodontic treatment plays a key role. Age is never a barrier when it comes to improving your bite, protecting your oral health, and enhancing your smile with confidence.
“How long does Invisalign take?”
Most adult cases are completed in 10–14 months, with visible changes often within the first 2–3 months. For those looking to speed things up, we offer OrthoPulse®—a light therapy device that can cut treatment time by up to 40%.
“Why choose Dr. Camacho?”
Dr. Camacho was one of the first general dentists in the nation certified in Invisalign, with over 1,300 cases successfully treated. With over 38 years of orthodontic experience, he personally designs every case—rather than relying on third-party technicians—to ensure precise, customized results. He’s been recognized nationally by his peers in Invisalign’s top provider competitions, and his approach is both scientifically informed and patient-centered.
✅ More reasons to consider Invisalign:
- Clear, removable, BPA-free trays—no wires, no brackets.
- Eat, brush, and floss normally.
- Fewer office visits than traditional braces.
- Includes retainers, whitening, and refinements if needed—no hidden fees.
