Invisalign® in Park Ridge, IL

Clear, Comfortable, and Confident Orthodontic Care

At DiFranco Orthodontics, we believe a straight, confident smile should never come at the cost of comfort or appearance. That’s why our team proudly offers Invisalign® in Park Ridge, IL — the modern, virtually invisible alternative to traditional braces.

Led by Dr. Paul DiFranco, Dr. Omar Souman, and Dr. Jessica Hedger, our practice combines cutting-edge orthodontic technology with personalized care to deliver exceptional Invisalign® results for teens and adults alike. Whether you’re preparing for an important event or simply ready to improve your smile discreetly, Invisalign® makes it possible.

What Is Invisalign®?

Invisalign® uses a series of custom-made, clear plastic aligners to gradually move teeth into their ideal positions. Each aligner is digitally designed using advanced 3D scanning technology and made from SmartTrack® material — known for its precision fit and gentle comfort.

Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign® aligners are removable, virtually invisible, and comfortable, allowing you to maintain your lifestyle, diet, and confidence while undergoing treatment.

Why Choose Invisalign® Over Braces?

Today’s patients want effective treatment that fits seamlessly into their lives — and Invisalign® delivers.

Key Advantages:

From mild teeth crowding to complex bite corrections, Invisalign® offers a proven, comfortable way to achieve a beautiful smile.

The Invisalign® Treatment Process

At DiFranco Orthodontics, we use a fully digital workflow to ensure accuracy and comfort throughout the entire process.

Step 1: Consultation and 3D Digital Scan

We begin with an in-depth smile assessment using iTero® 3D scanning technology — no messy impressions required. This scan enables us to visualize your teeth and create a comprehensive treatment plan.

Step 2: Custom Aligner Fabrication

Your custom aligners are digitally created to fit your unique smile. Each set gently shifts your teeth closer to their optimal position.

Step 3: Active Treatment

You’ll wear your aligners for 20–22 hours daily, changing to a new set every 1–2 weeks. We’ll schedule regular progress checks to ensure everything is moving as planned.

Step 4: Maintaining Your Results

Once treatment is complete, a custom retainer will preserve your new smile for years to come.
