Clear aligners move your teeth for months. It is worth being certain the plan is right before you start.
Invisalign is an effective alternative to traditional braces: discreet clear aligners in place of metal brackets, with similar results. Dr. Sajid is a certified Invisalign provider and has treated many Santa Clara patients with clear aligners. Whether you want to start treatment or just want a second opinion on Invisalign, we can help.
Aligners are removable and are not bonded to your teeth, but they still move your teeth — gently loosening them and guiding them into a new position over many months. That is a real treatment decision, and it deserves the same care as any other.
Most patients trust their dentist to give straightforward, unbiased advice. A second opinion simply lets you make the decision with more certainty, and confirms that the advice you have been given holds up.
There is no need to hide the fact that you are seeking a second opinion. Good dentists do not feel threatened by it — they encourage you to gather whatever information you need. Here is how it works with us:
Call the office and mention that you would like a second opinion on Invisalign when you book.
Bring your past dental records and any treatment plan or summary from your current dentist.
Dr. Sajid reviews your records, then examines you. If you do not have recent X-rays, we take them as part of the visit.
Once we have a clear picture of your dental health and alignment, you get our opinion and recommendations — and you are free to take them back to your current dentist.
It helps to arrive with a list of questions, so you get the most from the consultation.
We encourage a second opinion for any major procedure, Invisalign included. It is especially worth doing if:
Already mid-treatment? It is not unusual to seek a second opinion partway through. Many patients come to us when they are experiencing more pain or discomfort than expected and it is not being addressed. We can help get your treatment back on track.
