WE ARE ACCEPTING NEW PATIENTS
Our services
Corona Family Dental offers Invisalign in Bradenton for patients who want straighter teeth without metal braces. These clear aligners fit over your teeth and shift them into place over time. No one has to know you’re wearing them.
Our team has helped patients of all ages get the smile they want. We use digital scans to plan your treatment from start to finish. You’ll see exactly how your teeth will move before you begin.
Invisalign is a clear aligner system that uses custom plastic trays to move your teeth. Each tray makes small adjustments. You wear one set for about two weeks, then switch to the next.
The trays are smooth and fit tight against your teeth. They don’t have wires or brackets. Most people won’t notice you’re wearing them at all.
Corona Family Dental provides Invisalign at our Bradenton office. We also offer the same treatment at our Sarasota location. Choose the office closest to you.
Both offices use the same digital scanning technology and treatment process. Your records transfer between locations if needed. Schedule at whichever office works best for your routine.
We serve patients from Bradenton, Sarasota, Lakewood Ranch, Palmetto, Ellenton, Parrish, and surrounding areas.
Most patients finish treatment in 6 to 18 months. Simple cases take less time. More complex cases take longer.
After your scan, we’ll give you a clear estimate. You’ll know how many trays you need and how long it will take before you commit.
Checkups happen every 6 to 8 weeks. These visits are short. We check your progress and give you new trays. Most appointments take less than 30 minutes.
For best results, wear your aligners 20 to 22 hours a day. The trays come out for eating and brushing. Put them back in after meals.
These are clear trays you can pop in and out. No metal wires. No brackets glued to your teeth. Teens and adults pick them a lot because most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them. Curious if they’d work for you? Check out our Invisalign page to learn more.
We map out every step of your treatment. You’ll see a preview of how your teeth will look at the end. This plan guides the creation of your custom aligners.
You’ll receive several sets of trays at once. Wear each set for about two weeks, then move to the next. Your teeth shift a little more with each change.
Visit our Bradenton office every 6 to 8 weeks. We check your progress and give you new trays. Most appointments take less than 30 minutes.
Once your teeth reach their final position, you’ll switch to retainers. These hold your teeth in place and protect your results.
Both options straighten teeth, but they work differently. Here’s how they compare:
| Appearance | Clear, nearly invisible | Metal brackets and wires |
|---|---|---|
| Removable | Yes | No |
| Food restrictions | None | Avoid hard and sticky foods |
| Comfort | Smooth plastic | Wires may irritate cheeks |
| Treatment time | 6-18 months (mild to moderate) | 18-24 months (average) |
| Office visits | Every 6-8 weeks | Every 4-6 weeks |
Clear aligners work best for mild to moderate alignment issues. Traditional braces may be better for severe bite problems or complex cases. We’ll help you decide which option fits your needs.
Invisalign works for most adults and teens. Good candidates have:

Rinse your trays every time you take them out. Brush them gently with a soft toothbrush and clear soap. Avoid toothpaste—it can scratch the plastic and make them cloudy.
Never eat or drink anything but water with your aligners in. Hot drinks can warp the plastic. Food and sugary drinks can stain the trays and cause cavities.
Store your aligners in their case when not wearing them. This keeps them clean and safe. It also stops you from losing them.
Once your teeth reach their final position, you’ll move to retainers. Retainers hold your teeth in place while the bone around them settles.
We’ll give you a wear schedule. Most patients wear retainers full-time for a few months, then only at night. Following the schedule protects your results for years.
Skip the retainer, and your teeth may shift back. All that work would be lost. Stick with the plan and keep your new smile.
Our Bradenton team has over 20 years of experience. We use the latest digital tools to plan and track your treatment. Every step is mapped out before you start.
We also make the process easy. Text us to schedule. Ask questions anytime. Our staff is friendly and ready to help.

An orthodontist fixes problems with tooth alignment and bite. They use braces, aligners, and other appliances to move teeth into better positions. The result is a straighter smile that’s easier to clean and works the way it should.
Yes. Remove your aligners for meals and any drinks other than water. There are no food restrictions. Just brush before putting your aligners back in.
Braces cause some soreness, especially in the first few days or after adjustments. Most people call it pressure, not pain. Over-the-counter pain relievers help if you need them. The discomfort doesn’t last long.
