Clear aligners or braces? Start with what matters to you
Choose the line that sounds most like you. Dr. Godko confirms the choice once he has examined your bite.
Your options
Two paths to a straighter smile
Fixed or removable, each one is planned around your bite.
01
Invisalign
Clear and removable
A series of custom clear aligners moves your teeth a little at a time. Take them out to eat, brush and floss.
Hard to see when worn
02
Fastbraces
Nothing to take out
Fixed braces with a triangular bracket that moves the whole tooth at once.
Months, not years
03
Invisalign vs Braces
Still deciding?
Daily life, visits, food and the bite problems each one handles, side by side.
Side-by-side comparison
What it corrects
A straighter smile works better and looks better
Fixed or removable appliances apply gentle pressure over time, so your teeth settle into the right shape and alignment. The ADA explains how braces straighten teeth.
Anticipated results. Individual results may vary.
Crowding
When there isn’t room for every tooth, they overlap, twist or stick out. Treatment lines them back up.
Gaps & spacing
Wide or uneven gaps can trap food and leave gums less protected. Closing them evens out the smile.
Overbite
The top teeth sit too far in front of the bottom teeth.
Underbite
The bottom teeth sit in front of the top teeth.
Crossbite
Some upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth when you bite down.
Open bite
The upper and lower front teeth don’t meet when you close your mouth.
Uneven wear
Teeth that meet unevenly can wear down, chip and strain the jaw. An even bite spreads the load.
Hard to clean
Crooked teeth trap debris that brushing and flossing miss, raising the risk of decay and gum disease.
One plan, one office
Straighten, then finish, without changing offices
Straightening is usually the first step toward the smile people want. At Deluxe, what comes before and after it is in the same office.
01
Before you start
Healthy teeth and gums come first: cleanings, fillings and gum care, in the same office.
02
While you straighten
Fastbraces® or Invisalign®, chosen for your bite and your routine.
03
Once they’re straight
In-office whitening, bonding or veneers to finish the smile.

Day to day
Living with braces or aligners
Eating
With braces, pass on ice, hard candy, popcorn kernels, caramel, gum and bagels, and cut apples into small pieces. With aligners, hot and dark drinks can stain or warp them, so only water goes in while they are in.
Cleaning
Brush after meals, angling the brush above and below the brackets, and floss daily with a floss threader or small interdental brushes. Rinse and gently brush your aligners every day so they stay clear, and brush your teeth before you put them back in.
Comfort
Expect a tight, pressured feeling for a few days at the start and after each adjustment or new set, which fades quickly. Aligners have no wires or brackets to rub your cheeks, and a slight lisp in the first few days usually passes.

FAQ
Braces and Invisalign: your questions, answered
Your bite decides it. Invisalign treats most mild to moderate crowding, spacing, overbite, underbite and crossbite, while a more severe bite may need braces. Your routine matters too: aligners must be worn nearly all day and night, and braces leave nothing to take out or keep track of. Dr. Godko tells you which one your case calls for.
Braces and Invisalign are priced at your personalized consultation, once Dr. Godko has examined your bite. 0% financing through Cherry and in-house membership plans are available.
Yes. Many adults straighten their teeth with Fastbraces® or Invisalign®. Dr. Godko recommends the system that suits your bite and your routine.
It depends on your bite and how far your teeth need to move. Fastbraces® are designed to straighten teeth in months, not years, often in 3 to 12 months, and with Invisalign, wearing your aligners as directed keeps treatment on schedule. You get your personalized timeline at the consultation.
It depends on your case, mostly how complex your bite is. At your personalized consultation, Dr. Godko tells you which option your bite calls for and what it costs.
On many plans it is listed separately, so it is worth checking. We work with your insurance to ensure you receive the maximum benefit.
With Fastbraces®, you come in every 4 to 6 weeks for an adjustment and progress check. With Invisalign, regular checkups let Dr. Godko make adjustments as your teeth move.
Yes. Teeth can drift after treatment, so a retainer holds the result. With Fastbraces®, a discreet fixed retainer wire sits behind your front teeth, where you won’t see or feel it while talking.
Yes, and straightening first can mean fewer veneers are needed. In-office whitening, bonding and porcelain veneers are all done in the same office, so your finishing touches follow the same plan.
Deluxe Dentistry & Esthetics has two offices, in Lawrenceville, NJ and Skillman, NJ. Every procedure is available at both offices.
