serves as a consultant in the Research and Development
department of the company.  Also, our office was one of two
offices in the country selected to begin treating adolescent
patients with the appliance.  The results of the study we have
done have been used to train the country’s orthodontists how
to successfully treat patients with the appliance.  We are also
helping continue the evolution of the appliance through
testing of some of the newer components and systems.
Invisalign
Many patients seeking orthodontic treatment are excited about the
possibility of having their teeth straightened invisibly.  In the last few
years, we have seen a lot of development in the area of the Invisalign
appliance, which is about as close as you can get to invisible braces.  

Does Dr. Trosien have experience with Invisalign?
Yes.  More so than anyone else in the area, actually.  Dr. Trosien has
treated more Invisalign patients than all other doctors in Tracy combined.
 Align Technology, the company that makes Invisalign, has been
consulting with Dr. Trosien for his input into the design of the appliance
since 1998.  He has lectured throughout Europe and the United States to
What is Invisalign?
The Invisalign appliance is actually a series of individual appliances that look
like bleaching trays.  Each one moves the teeth 0.25mm closer to their
straight positions.  By wearing 10, 20, or however many your case requires,
the teeth are slowly moved to their final, straight, position.  The trays are
changed every two weeks, but we still see you every six weeks or so.

Does it work?
Yes, if used wisely, and by an orthodontist who understands the appliance, it
works very well.  Although it appears to be very easy to use, it actually
requires a great deal of knowledge about orthodontics and the biology of
tooth movement.

Who can have Invisalign treatment?
Invisalign works very well for people with mild to moderate spacing or
crowding and a relatively well aligned jaw structure.  Large jaw discrepancies,
like overbites, or the need for extractions cannot be treated with Invisalign
appliances alone.  Such cases must be treated with braces or with a
combination of Invisalign and braces.
