New Jersey Orthodontist Thomas M. Burns of Westfield Braces Dr. Thomas M. Burns, D.M.D., P.A., of Westfield N.J. Orthodontic Specialty Permit #3299

Clear Aligners

Dr. Burns is a Certified Invisalign Provider.


Invisalign is a way to get the beautiful straight teeth you've always wanted, without braces. A complimentary consultation with Dr. Burns can determine if Invisalign is right for you.

What Is Invisalign?
Invisalign uses a series of invisible, removable and comfortable aligners that no one can tell you're wearing. Invisalign is made with 3-D computer imaging technology and has been proven effective. More than 70% of orthodontists in the US and Canada are certified to treat with Invisalign.

Why Would I Want Invisalign?
Not only are the aligners invisible, they are removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment. Brushing and flossing are also  much easier. They are also comfortable, with no metal to cause mouth abrasions during treatment. No metal and wires usually means you spend less time in your doctor's office getting adjustments. Invisalign also allows you to view your own virtual treatment plan when you start, so you can see how your straight teeth will look when your treatment is complete.

How Does Invisalign Work?
You wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move until they have straightened to the final position Dr. Burns has prescribed. You'll visit Dr. Burns about once every six weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned. Total treatment time averages nine to fifteen months. The average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but both will vary from case to case.
