How does Invisalign work?
Invisalign straightens your teeth with a series of custom clear aligners that are nearly invisible when you wear them. We offer Invisalign in-house at our Sonoma, CA office, for teens and adults who want a straighter smile without the look of metal. The aligners come out to eat, brush, and floss, so life goes on pretty much as usual.
Who clear aligners are for
- Crowded or overlapping teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Many bite concerns
- Teeth that have shifted since braces years ago
- Teens and adults who want a discreet option
We don't offer braces. For most people, Invisalign is the discreet choice, and if your case is too complex for aligners, we'll tell you honestly.
What to expect with Invisalign treatment
- A careful look. Dr. Oliver checks your teeth and gums and talks through your goals.
- A quick scan. An iTero digital scan replaces goopy impressions and gives you a 3D preview of your result.
- Wearing your aligners. You wear them about 20 to 22 hours a day, switching sets as planned.
- Regular check-ins. We see you along the way to keep everything on track, at a pace that suits you.
- Keeping your smile. Your custom retainers are included with Invisalign treatment.
Treatment time varies with your teeth and goals. Our post on what to expect with Invisalign walks through staying on track.
Why Sonoma families choose Dr. Oliver for Invisalign
Clear aligners are a real focus for Dr. Oliver. She has extensive training in clear aligner therapy, is a member of the American Academy of Clear Aligners, and received Invisalign's 2026 "Done in One Round" award, which highlights clinical expertise in finishing cases in the first round of aligners.
Why dentist-guided Invisalign matters
Mail-order aligners skip the part where someone actually looks at your teeth and gums as they move. With us, your plan starts with an exam and a precise scan, and regular check-ins let us catch small issues early. Straighter teeth are also easier to brush and floss, which makes every dental cleaning go a little smoother.
The heart behind your Invisalign smile

About us
Invisalign at Sonoma Springs Dental
To us, boutique dental care means you matter: personal, cozy, unhurried, and held to an exceptionally high standard. At Sonoma Springs Dental, Dr. Riley Oliver's boutique dental home in Sonoma, that care carries through every step of your Invisalign treatment, from first scan to final retainer.
- Unhurried by design. Your consultation and check-ins are never rushed, so there's time to answer every question and look closely at how your teeth are moving.
- A space that feels like home. Our standalone office is built around a green, light-filled atrium, with easy parking right outside for quick check-in visits.
- A team that knows you. Our small, all-female team is bilingual in English and Spanish, and Monsé, our patient care coordinator, helps Spanish-speaking families feel right at home.
- A genuinely high bar. Carefully chosen, never compromised: Invisalign clear aligners, iTero digital scans, and a dentist who focuses on aligner therapy. Only the treatment you actually need, never more.

Invisalign FAQs
What is Invisalign, and who is it for?
Invisalign straightens your teeth with a series of custom clear aligners that are nearly invisible when you wear them. It works for teens and adults with many kinds of crowding, gaps, and bite concerns. Because the aligners come out, you can eat what you like and brush and floss normally.
Why choose Dr. Oliver for Invisalign?
Because clear aligners are something she truly focuses on. Dr. Oliver has extensive training in clear aligner therapy, is a member of the American Academy of Clear Aligners, and received the 2026 "Done in One Round" award from Invisalign. That award recognizes finishing cases in the first set of aligners, without needing extra rounds.
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
It depends on your teeth and your goals, so every case is different. We start with an iTero digital scan and a 3D preview of your result, then you'll come in for regular check-ins to keep everything on track. When you finish, your retainers are included, and our post on what to expect with Invisalign walks through each step.
How many hours a day do I need to wear my aligners?
About 20 to 22 hours a day. Take them out to eat or to drink anything other than water, then brush before you put them back in. Wearing them consistently is the simplest way to stay on schedule.
Should I choose Invisalign or braces?
For most people who want a discreet option, Invisalign is the better choice. The aligners are clear, removable, and easy to live with, and you keep eating the foods you love. We don't offer braces, so if your case is too complex for aligners, we'll tell you honestly and point you in the right direction.
Is Invisalign with a dentist better than mail-order aligners?
Yes. With mail-order aligners, no one is checking your teeth and gums in person as they move. With us, your plan starts with a careful exam and an iTero scan, and you'll have regular check-ins so we can catch small issues early and adjust as needed.
Does insurance cover Invisalign?
Some dental plans include orthodontic benefits that can help with Invisalign. We accept all major insurances and will check your benefits and walk you through your estimate before you start. For the rest, you can pay monthly with Cherry or CareCredit.
