What is orthodontics?
Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing, preventing, and treating dental and facial irregularities. This often involves using devices like braces, clear aligners, and retainers to correct issues such as misaligned teeth, bite problems, and jaw disorders.
One popular orthodontic treatment option is Invisalign, which uses a series of clear, removable aligners custom-made to fit your teeth. Unlike traditional metal braces with brackets and wires, Invisalign aligners are nearly invisible and offer a more comfortable and discreet way to straighten teeth.
Is Invisalign right for you?
Invisalign is a great option for many, but not everyone. It suits:
- Adults and teenagers with mild to moderate misalignment (gaps, crowding, overbites, underbites, crossbites).
- Those seeking discreet treatment, as the clear aligners are nearly invisible.
- Individuals prioritizing comfort, as Invisalign aligners are smooth and removable.
- People with good oral hygiene and self-discipline, as consistent wear and maintenance are key.
Consulting with Dr. Kathy Zahedi DDS & Associates is essential to determine if Invisalign is right for you. We will assess your case and recommend the best treatment plan.
What to expect during an orthodontic appointment?
The initial stage of your treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation where Dr. Zahedi evaluates your teeth and jaw relationship. Utilizing an iTero® digital scanner, we capture precise 3-D images of your smile for treatment planning. Dr. Zahedi strategically maps the incremental movement of your teeth, ensuring predictable outcomes. These scans are then transmitted to the Invisalign lab to craft your personalized aligners.
Typically, patients progress from one set of Invisalign aligners to the next every few weeks, totaling between 18 to 30 aligners. Regular follow-up visits are essential throughout the treatment at our office. These visits allow us to monitor your progress, make necessary adjustments, and ensure the optimal alignment of your teeth. Trust Dr. Zahedi and our advanced digital technology for a thorough and tailored Invisalign experience, guiding you toward a straighter, more confident smile.
It's always a pleasure to go to Dr. Kathy Zahedi,s office. The staff is super great and Dr. Zahedi is amazing. Today I had her work on my crowns and the procedure was painless, I didn’t even feel the needle or the removal of the crowns. I was completely comfortable. Dr. Kathy and her dental assistants asked me many times during the procedure if I was comfortable.
I would recommend Dr. Kathy Zahedi, and her staff to any one that asked me.

This is a painless soothing veneer experience. Kathy is indeed exceptional on getting the job done. I have always dream of having big natural smiles and I am thankful I went to her. I am currently getting my veneer done and I love the job Kathy does on my teeth. And I also love the facility and people there for offering a great service. They are so patient so kind and happy there. It’s an incredible experience. I highly recommend Kathy on your veneers. Thank you!! 🌷❤️
I have had the best best best experience with Dr. Zahedi and her team. I visited her after another dentist’s experience caused some major anxiety and fear. She has met me where I’m at emotionally with the deepest empathy, care, and respect. She listens to me, spends time with me, and makes sure I leave her office feeling better than when I arrived. She is like your most caring best friend, your favorite auntie, and the mother you wish you had. She has texted me on her days off to find out how I’m doing and feeling. I will never go to anyone else for my dental needs.
