Precision Teeth Straightening with Invisalign™ in Worthington, OH
Contact UsInvisalign™ Treatment Overview
Dr. Carolyn Molzahn and our team are proud to offer Invisalign™ in Worthington, Ohio, as part of our cosmetic dental services. For many of our patients, a significant drawback of traditional metal braces is their aesthetic impact. Invisalign™ offers a solution with a nearly invisible alignment system, allowing for teeth straightening without the need for metal braces.
The Invisalign™ clear braces use customized aligning trays that are changed every few weeks, ensuring the perfect fit for new tooth configurations. Aside from being more aesthetically pleasing than traditional metal braces, Invisalign™ clear braces are removable, so you can take them out temporarily as needed. As a result, the duration of Invisalign™ treatment is in the hands of the patient.
When our patients use the Invisalign system as prescribed, they see better results in a faster period of time.

Worthington, Ohio, Cosmetic Solutions with Invisalign™
Invisalign™ addresses the same cosmetic and alignment problems that traditional braces correct, but unlike metal braces, Invisalign™ alignment trays are nearly invisible and are removable.
The following is a list of some of the common problems that Dr. Molzahn can address using Invisalign™:
Overcrowding
When there isn’t enough space in your mouth for your teeth to align properly, overcrowding can occur, leading to tooth decay and an increased likelihood of developing gum disease.
Diastema (tooth gaps)
Although tooth gaps can occur throughout the mouth, they most commonly occur between the two front teeth. While gaps are typically cosmetic, they are sometimes correlated with gum disease.
Crossbites
Crossbites are a common dental issue that occurs when the bottom and top teeth fail to align properly in a closed mouth. Crossbites can affect one tooth or multiple teeth and lead to uneven wear, which can cause tooth erosion and gum disease.
Overbites
An overbite refers to a patient’s upper teeth projecting further than or completely covering their lower teeth. Overbite can lead to Temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJ) and jaw pain.
Underbites
An underbite is the opposite of an overbite. In the case of an underbite, the patient’s lower teeth project further than or cover their upper teeth, leading to TMJ and jaw pain.
The Invisalign™ Advantage at Crosswords Dental
The main difference between Invisalign™ and traditional braces is that the system’s alignment trays can be fully removed. As a result, you must be committed and disciplined. In our experience, this is not usually a problem for patients because Invisalign™ clear braces are comfortable and practically invisible to the naked eye.
The Invisalign™ system, renowned for its comfort, aesthetics, and effectiveness, has revolutionized cosmetic dentistry.
