Invisalign

Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually guide your smile into better alignment, offering an alternative to traditional wires and brackets. Many people choose this approach when they want a straightening option that fits more easily into daily routines and social settings. At KHL Orthodontics LLC in Northvale, NJ, Dr. Kristine M. Hyon, DMD, MS, who completed orthodontic residency training and holds a Master of Science in Oral Biology, oversees Invisalign planning and care.

How Planning Works

Digital Impression Scanning — bite-free digital scans capture precise arch detail without messy putty impressions.
Digital Panoramic X-Ray — low-radiation imaging maps the full jaw and root positions to support planning.
Cephalometric Imaging — side-profile skeletal X-rays help evaluate bite and jaw alignment.
3D Treatment Planning — digital simulations preview how your smile is expected to shift before aligners are made.
Intraoral Camera — high-resolution images let you see the same details we review during checkups.

Who Considers Invisalign

Invisalign is often considered by people looking to correct crowding, spacing, or mild bite concerns, including adults who prefer a more discreet option than visible brackets. Dr. Hyon can review your alignment and discuss whether Invisalign fits your goals during a consultation. We accept a variety of insurance carriers, including Cigna, Guardian, UnitedHealthcare and many others, and can help determine your estimated benefits.
