Straighter teeth without brackets and wires, fit around your Bucktown routine.
Invisalign uses a series of clear, custom-fitted aligners to gradually shift your teeth into place, without the brackets and wires of traditional braces. Most patients find the aligners comfortable enough to forget they’re wearing them during the day.
Cityview Dental Arts, our Bucktown office at 2232 W. Armitage Ave, plans and manages Invisalign treatment in-house from your first scan through your final aligner. We are open Monday through Wednesday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Thursday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Invisalign works best when the plan is managed closely, which is part of why where you start treatment matters. Dr. Jerome Bock founded Cityview Dental Arts and continues to see patients here, alongside Dr. Melissa Yousefi, and both doctors plan and monitor Invisalign treatment in-house from your first scan through your final aligner.
We are in-network with most major PPOs, including Delta Dental, MetLife, Cigna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Guardian, and United Healthcare, and every visit includes the same comfort menu, heated blankets, and warm neck pillows, that our patients have come to expect.
Dr. Bock founded Cityview Dental Arts and continues to treat patients from the Bucktown office today. His long history in the neighborhood means many patients have trusted him with their care for years, now backed by the resources of Dental Group of Chicago.
Dr. Yousefi joined the Cityview Dental Arts team in 2026, bringing additional capacity to the Bucktown office so patients can get the care they need without a long wait for an appointment.
Aligners come out for eating and brushing, so most patients adjust to the routine within the first few days. We ask that you wear them at least twenty to twenty-two hours a day to stay on track with your treatment timeline.
Skipping days here and there can push your finish date back, so we check in at each visit to make sure things are progressing as planned.
Invisalign can address crowding, gaps, and many bite issues for teens and adults. We start with a full evaluation and digital scans to confirm it is the right fit for your specific case before mapping out your treatment plan.
You will switch to a new set of aligners roughly every one to two weeks, with periodic check-ins so we can track your progress and adjust the plan if needed.
Invisalign works well for a specific range of orthodontic problems, and knowing where it fits helps set the right expectations before you start. Crowding, gaps between teeth, and mild to moderate overbites, underbites, and crossbites respond well to aligner treatment, and we confirm the details of your case with a full evaluation and digital scans at our Bucktown office.
More complex situations, such as significant tooth rotation or a bite that needs skeletal correction, may call for traditional braces or a referral instead, and we will tell you plainly if that is the case. A 2023 survey of American Association of Orthodontists members published in The Angle Orthodontist found that clinicians report the most confidence treating mild to moderate cases with clear aligners, while more complex tooth movements often require additional planning. If your gum health needs attention first, we address that, including periodontal care, before your aligners are fitted.
Invisalign and traditional braces both move teeth into a healthier position, but the daily experience is different. Aligners are clear and removable, so you take them out to eat and brush, and most people will not notice you are wearing them in everyday conversation. Traditional braces stay on the teeth around the clock, which some patients still prefer because there is nothing to remember to put back in.
The tradeoff is discipline. Aligners only work if you wear them close to the twenty to twenty-two hours a day we ask for, while braces keep working on their own between adjustments. For many Bucktown adults, being able to remove aligners for a meal, a big presentation, or a photo is worth that added responsibility, but it is a real factor to weigh before choosing either option.
Every Invisalign consultation starts with a full evaluation and digital scans to confirm it is the right fit for your bite. From there we map out how many aligners your treatment will likely take and roughly how long the full process should run.
You will switch to a new set every one to two weeks, with periodic check-ins so we can track progress along the way.
Invisalign is often comparable in cost to traditional braces, and it should not be out of reach for a Bucktown resident who wants straighter teeth without the look of metal brackets. We are in-network with Delta Dental, MetLife, Cigna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Guardian, and United Healthcare, many of which offer some orthodontic coverage.
Cherry financing is available for the remaining cost.
Cityview Dental Arts has guided Bucktown patients through Invisalign treatment for years, and Dr. Jerome Bock and Dr. Melissa Yousefi both monitor cases closely from start to finish.
Every visit includes the same comfort menu, heated blankets, warm neck pillows, a coffee bar, and eucalyptus wipes, that patients have come to expect from Dental Group of Chicago.
Straightening your smile as an adult does not have to mean traditional braces, and Invisalign has made that option far more discreet. We will map out your full treatment timeline before you commit, so you know roughly how long the process will take.
