What to Expect from Traditional Braces

When it comes to straightening your teeth, metal braces are more cost-efficient and manageable for all ages. Braces can treat various teeth and mouth alignment issues, including overbites, underbites, crossbites, open bites, gapped and over-crowned teeth.


Although traditional braces have had an intimidating and painful reputation, the orthodontic industry has made tremendous strides in creating new ways for braces to be more comfortable. Each tooth will have a metal bracket that is wired together, creating pressure, which allows them to move overtime.


Typically, traditional braces are for one to three years. When you choose to get metal braces, you must floss and frequently brush to ensure that food and plaque do not build up.

Invisalign for Straighter Teeth

If you do not like the idea of metal braces for straighter teeth, Los Lunas Haltom Orthodontics has an alternative solution for you. Our orthodontic office offers Invisalign clear aligners for adults and teens. Invisalign is an effective way to straighten your teeth without having traditional braces. Like metal braces, Invisalign can fix overbites, underbites, crossbites, open bites, and crowded and gap teeth but without drawing attention to your mouth. We have helped multiple patients throughout Los Lunas, NM, with Invisalign treatments. No matter what your goals are for your smile, you can trust our team to provide you with a personalized treatment plan to ensure you get the smile you always wanted. For more information, contact us at (505) 866-9296 today.

The Invisalign Process

While achieving your results are the same — a confident & beautiful smile — when you compare Invisalign® to traditional braces, the advantages are clear. You will be able to continue to enjoy the same foods you love and also spend less time in our office. We love seeing you, but know you have a busy life – with Invisalign® you only need to come to the office about every 12 weeks (vs. every 4 weeks with braces). Costs are also affordable – Invisalign® is the SAME COST AS BRACES. The Invisalign process is easy. ï»¿

  • 1. Complimentary Consultation.

    The first step is to have one of our Board Certified Orthodontists evaluate and take digital impressions of your smile to send to Invisalign.

  • 2. Planning.

    When we send off your Invisalign scan, our doctors will create a customized treatment plan just for you.

  • 3. Fabrication.

    If you decide to go through with the treatment, our Invisalign team will create your customized aligners. Typically, it takes eight to ten weeks for this process to complete.

  • 4. Starting you Smile Journey.

    When your clear aligners are ready, we'll show you how to care for your aligners. You'll need to wear them at least 20 to 22 hours a day. Every two weeks, you will then switch to the next tray in the Invisalign series.

  • 5. Appointments.

    To ensure that your teeth are on track, you will need to visit our office every six to eight weeks. You'll also receive more aligners. 

  • 6. Final Results.

    In most cases, our patients reach their desired smile goals within a 12 to 18-month span. So get ready, and show your new, confident, and perfect smile!
