Book OnlineWhat Causes Crooked Teeth?
Teeth can become misaligned for many reasons, including:
- Genetics and jaw size
- Crowding when there is not enough room for adult teeth
- Childhood habits such as thumb sucking or prolonged pacifier use
- Early loss of baby teeth
- Shifting after tooth loss
- Natural tooth movement with age, even after braces
- Injury to the face or jaw
Why Straightening Your Teeth Matters
Straight teeth are not only about appearance. Crowded and overlapping teeth create tight spaces where plaque and bacteria collect, increasing the risk of tooth decay, gum disease, and bad breath. Misaligned bites can cause uneven wear, chipped teeth, and strain on the jaw joints that may contribute to TMJ discomfort.
Invisalign Clear Aligners
Invisalign uses a series of custom, nearly invisible aligners to gradually move your teeth into place. Aligners are removable, so you can eat your favorite foods and brush and floss normally. Dr. Hinna Chaudhry is a certified Invisalign provider who continues advanced Invisalign training, and we use the iTero digital scanner to create precise 3D models of your teeth without messy impressions. You can even preview how your smile may look before treatment begins.
Invisalign can treat:
- Crowded teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Overbite, underbite, and crossbite
- Open bite
- Teeth that have shifted after braces
Cosmetic Alternatives
For mild misalignment, porcelain veneers or bonding can create the look of a straighter smile in just a few visits. Our team will help you compare options during your cosmetic dentistry consultation.

Crooked Teeth FAQs
Can adults straighten their teeth?
Yes. It is never too late to straighten your teeth. Many of our Invisalign patients are adults who want a discreet way to improve their smile.
How long does Invisalign take?
Treatment time varies by case, but many patients complete treatment in about 12 to 18 months. Minor cases may take less time.
Is Invisalign noticeable?
Invisalign aligners are clear and custom-fitted, so most people will not notice you are wearing them.
Do crooked teeth cause health problems?
They can. Crowded teeth are harder to clean, which increases the risk of cavities and gum disease. Bite problems can also cause uneven wear and jaw strain.
My teeth shifted after braces. Can Invisalign help?
Yes. Invisalign is a great option for correcting teeth that have shifted since childhood braces.
Are veneers an alternative to Invisalign?
For mild crowding or gaps, veneers can create the appearance of straight teeth quickly. For bite problems or significant crowding, Invisalign is usually recommended.
How much does Invisalign cost?
Cost depends on the complexity of your case. We offer an Invisalign consultation special, financing options, and $1,000 off for Diamond Membership Plan members.
