Ask Dr. Ostreicher: Is Invisalign® really customized for each patient?

Yes, it is, and that’s part of what makes it work. To find out if you are the right candidate for Invisalign treatment, the first thing we do is to take an impression of your teeth as they are now and digitize it. Using special software, we look at the current positioning of your teeth and compare it to the way your teeth should look.

Next we use special software to map out the exact path your teeth will take from the beginning of your treatment to the end. Based on the results, a set of custom aligners are created just for your teeth. Throughout the course of treatment, you will be required to wear these clear, removable aligners one at a time; each one moving your teeth closer and closer to their final, perfectly aligned position. The best thing about it all? Nobody around you will even know you are wearing braces!

Dr. Ostreicher is an Elite Premier Invisalign provider, making him one of the top providers in the country! If you have questions about Invisalign, or would like to find out if you are a candidate for Invisalign treatment, please give us a call.

Meet Our Orthodontist

I believe everyone deserves a beautiful smile that will last a lifetime. Every time one of my patient's braces come off, I can see their confidence and self-image increase. That's why I think being an orthodontist is so important.

To stay at the forefront of an ever-changing profession, I participate in continuing education courses throughout the year. I also serve on the Alpha Board of Invisalign® and am a lecturer for AlignTech, where I teach other dentists how to use Invisalign.

For 25 years, I was an Assistant Clinical Professor of Dentistry at Columbia University School of Dentistry and a professor of nutrition at the University of New Haven. I have taught at the New Haven campus, at Pacific Presbyterian Hospital in San Francisco, and Cedars Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles.

After serving many years on the Board of Directors of the Nassau County Dental Society, I was President of the New York State Dental Association. I have published dozens of articles on dentistry and health, and served as editor of For Dentists Only, a scientific dental journal.
