Smile Without Missing a Beat
Invisalign for Teens
As a teenager, the last thing you want is to feel self-conscious about your smile. Traditional metal braces can be embarrassing, and that’s why more and more teens are choosing Invisalign clear aligners for their orthodontic treatment. At Gig Harbor & Tacoma – Proctor Braces, we offer Invisalign specifically for teenage patients.
Invisalign for Adults
Invisalign is the clear alternative to metal braces for adults. And it’s been proven to be effective in clinical research. Invisalign is made with 3-D computer imaging technology and has been successful in treating over 4 million patients worldwide. The Invisalign system is virtually invisible and has helped people achieve amazing smiles.

As an older adult, I noticed my teeth were shifting and I knew that was not good. I love my Invisalign because no one can see them! The tray system is so easy! Invisalign has improved my bite, helped my TMJ pain, and helped with the ringing in my ear. Best of all, I know I am improving my health and Invisalign looks and feels great! Thank you, Dr. Patra!

I love Invisalign because it is so easy and comfortable to wear. I hardly know it’s there, and neither does anyone else! Getting straight teeth without being limited to what I can eat or drink is a major plus! I’m so glad I chose to work with Dr. Patra and her team.
