Serving the Manchester, Iowa community, our team of experienced dentists offers personalized care tailored to meet your individual needs and goals.
Exploring the World of Invisalign®
Invisalign® is an innovative orthodontic solution designed to straighten teeth through a series of clear, plastic aligners that are virtually invisible. Unlike traditional braces, these aligners are removable and customized for a comfortable fit. Dr. Timothy Collier, DDS, emphasizes the importance of embracing advanced dental technologies to enhance patient outcomes while ensuring comfort throughout the treatment process.

The clear aligners are virtually invisible, offering a discreet way to achieve straight teeth.

Custom-made to fit your teeth snugly without wires or brackets that could irritate your mouth.
Convenience:
Removable aligners allow for easier eating, brushing, and flossing.
Efficiency:
For many patients, treatment time with Invisalign® can be shorter compared to traditional braces.
