At Ball Dentistry, our doctors often recommend an Invisalign procedure rather than traditional braces. Invisalign treatment is a breakthrough orthodontic option that lets you have the smile you've always wanted without the hassle of braces. By using a series of clear, removable aligners, the Invisalign treatment straightens your teeth with results you'll notice sooner than you think. The course of treatment involves changing aligners approximately every two weeks, moving your teeth into a straighter position step-by-step, until you have a more beautiful smile. And unlike conventional braces, these clear aligners can be removed while you eat and brush your teeth as usual. Most patients can expect to wear their Invisalign clear aligners for about a year.
What Are the Benefits of Invisalign?
Invisalign treatment overseen by the experienced team at Ball Dentistry is an exciting, safe, and effective alternative to traditional braces and orthodontics. Benefits of this customized treatment at our Indianapolis, IN facility include:
- Less noticeable and more comfortable than braces
- Aligners can be taken out to eat, have photographs taken, and play an instrument
- No restrictions on foods and beverages
- Better speech than with regular braces
- Normal brushing and flossing
- Aligner trays are developed specifically for your teeth and oral health
Who Is A Candidate For Invisalign?
Adults and teenagers who want a less-noticeable alternative to traditional metal braces may be good candidates for Invisalign treatment. This treatment can be appropriate for resolving tooth misalignment (an underbite, open bite, overbite, or crossbite), a narrow arch, crooked or crowded teeth, and spaces between teeth. Taking care of such conditions could enhance comfort, jaw function, and speaking and eating abilities. Invisalign teeth aligners are easier to remove from the mouth, allowing Indianapolis, IN adults and teenagers to savor their favorite food items without restrictions and floss and brush their teeth without wires and brackets getting in the way. During your appointment at Ball Dentistry, a member of our team will take dental radiographs and then perform an exam to decide if Invisalign clear aligners are a good option for you.
What Can I Expect After Invisalign Treatment?
The time spent undergoing Invisalign aligners will vary based on personal cosmetic goals and needs; however, a number of individuals typically wear their removable, clear Invisalign aligners for around 1 – 2 years. After completing your orthodontic treatment, wearing a set of custom retainers is extremely important to prevent your teeth from moving. Custom Vivera® retainers are fabricated with the same comfortable material as the aligner trays and are custom-designed in the Invisalign laboratory. Once they arrive at Ball Dentistry, our clinical staff will speak with you about how often to wear your retainers, as well as how to clean them. Dr. Ball will consistently monitor the alignment of your teeth and your bite during your yearly dental visits.
Ball Dentistry Reviews
I had Opus laser treatment today, and the results are amazing all ready!! My skin feels tighter and complexion looks more even all ready!! I can’t wait to do another session!!
Was encouraged by a friend to come for a second opinion, a "big company " priced me out over $ 2,000 out of pocket after also maxing out my insurance.. Went to the east office where I spoke with Jessica about my concerns. She set me up with Dr. Craig Who rechecked me. He reviewed x-rays with me described his concerns, explained his game plan and how he would work it. Returning to Jessica she already worked with insurance and drew up a new quote. Not only did my out of pocket drop $1570 from original cost but my insurance was not maxed out, in fact my remaining available balance for the year will definitely be enough if anything else comes up. She went thru paperwork with me , made it clear to me about charges to insurance and remaining out of pocket.. we created a payment plan and scheduled my first appointment.. I feel confident in the work I received today. Dr. Craig relieved me of my anxieties before beginning my procedure. Everything was smooth and I was finished in a timely manner. I appreciate the clarity that was given to me from all sides, start to finish. I have found my family dentist office !
When I moved from the south side to Carmel i was sad to leave my dentist I grew up seeing my whole life. I was referred to Ball Dentistry and first was seeing Dr. Craig Ball. The staff is so nice and the office is gorgeous and clean. I eventually got moved over to Dr. Rachel Thompson who is also amazing. Dr. Rachel Thompson told me last fall I needed to get a crown on a tooth eventually which I never have had to get done so was nervous. I have had sensitivity on that same exact tooth since February and just been so nervous to get a crown done. I just today bit the bullet and got the crown done and so mad I waited so long. Dr. Rachel Thompson executed the whole procedure so flawlessly I didn't feel the shot nor anything during the procedure. Honestly only con of a crown is the price and how long it takes to get done. I recommend Dr. Rachel Thompson as a dentist!
Dr. Rachel Thompson is highly recommended. Super smart, friendly, gentle and supportive. If you want a dentist that listens to you and works to your goals, call Ball Dentistry and schedule with Dr. Rachel!!
They are a very good Dentistry and I have been going there for several years. A friend had recommended Ball to me. If you need a place to go for your teeth, give them a call. I truly believe that you will be happy with the service.

Not All Teeth Can Be Perfect
Having crooked, crowded, or gapped teeth can be embarrassing, sometimes painful, and often uncomfortable. Generally speaking, when you speak to a dentist, he or she may recommend treating your orthodontic problem with years of uncomfortable and unattractive metal braces. This is the biggest distraction for patients to fix their teeth and enjoy a perfectly aligned smile. Here at Ball Dentistry, we want you to know that Invisalign treatment offers a modern way to straighten your teeth and even correct misaligned bites without the use of traditional braces.
If you have gapped teeth, an overbite, underbite, open bite, crossbite, or overly crowded teeth, Invisalign clear aligners may work for you! Call us at or request an appointment online to come into the Indianapolis, IN dental office of Ball Dentistry. We would love to be able to discuss an Invisalign plan specific to you and get you well on your way to a beautifully straight smile!

About UsInvisalign® Treatment FAQs
What do aligners look like?
Aligners are clear and nearly invisible. If you've ever seen clear teeth-whitening trays, that should give you a good idea of what the aligners look like. Invisalign aligners are custom-made to fit and move your teeth.
Will the treatment be painful?
Each time you change to a new aligner, there may be some temporary discomfort while your teeth adjust to their new position. This is completely normal, and is a good sign that the treatment is working.
Will wearing Invisalign aligners affect my speech?
Some people are affected more than others, but most adjust in a short period of time to the feeling of the aligners and do not have permanent changes in their speech.
How often will I have to wear my aligners?
Invisalign treatment only works while you're wearing the aligners. It's recommended that you wear your aligners full-time, day and night, except to eat, brush, and floss your teeth.
What happens after treatment to prevent my teeth from moving again?
This varies person to person and depends on the outcome of the treatment. Some patients might need a positioner, or conventional retainer. Other patients might need a clear plastic retainer.
How affordable is the Invisalign treatment?
The total cost of Invisalign treatment is similar to that of traditional braces. Many dental insurance plans cover Invisalign treatment just as they would with regular metal braces. Every unique case has many different factors that can all affect total treatment cost, so it's extremely difficult to put a price tag on custom treatment plans. Ball Dentistry can do all the legwork for you and will check with your dental insurance provider to see just how much they will cover. Call our office at 317-846-3463 or request an appointment and come in to be evaluated. Only then will we be able to quote an Invisalign treatment plan, work with your insurance, and talk about available payment options. We will make sure there is no guessing and that you know how much your specific treatment will be. Most patients are amazed at just how affordable and easy it is to obtain a straighter smile!
