Everyone deserves a healthy, confident smile, and Invisalign® clear aligners make achieving that smile easier than ever. If you’re considering Invisalign® for yourself or your child, you may be wondering: should I see a dentist or an orthodontist? At Hiser Orthodontics, we want to help you make an informed decision.

Why You Should Choose an Orthodontist for Invisalign® Treatment

Orthodontists are dental specialists trained in the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of misaligned teeth and jaws. After completing dental school, orthodontists spend several additional years mastering the art and science of moving teeth and jaws safely and effectively.

This specialized training means that orthodontists:

      • Understand the biomechanics of tooth movement
      • Can handle complex cases, including severe crowding, overbites, or underbites
      • Are experienced in planning long-term treatment strategies to achieve functional, beautiful smiles

While dentists provide excellent general dental care, orthodontists focus specifically on aligning teeth and jaws, which is why patients often choose Hiser Orthodontics for a tailored experience that highlights our commitment to personalized care and attention to detail.

Invisalign® Expertise

Invisalign® clear aligners are an advanced orthodontic system that gently shifts teeth into their ideal positions. Because orthodontists train extensively in tooth movement and jaw alignment, they can:

      • Diagnose dental and skeletal issues such as crowding, overbites, and underbites
      • Monitor treatment closely and make adjustments as needed
      • Predict treatment outcomes with accuracy
      • Handle unexpected issues that may arise during treatment

Dr. Hiser is proud to be a Diamond Plus Invisalign® provider, placing him among the top Invisalign® providers in the country. Our patients benefit from years of experience, cutting-edge technology, and personalized care every step of the way.
