Straighten your teeth discreetly — no brackets, no wires. Clear aligner treatment planned personally by Dr. Adel at our private Carrollwood practice.
If you’ve been putting off straightening your teeth because you don’t want metal braces as an adult, clear aligners were made for you. Invisalign uses a series of transparent, removable trays to gradually guide your teeth into alignment — no brackets, no wires, and nothing that announces itself in photos or meetings. Adel Dentistry now offers Invisalign clear aligner treatment at our private Carrollwood, Tampa practice, planned personally by Dr. Adel with the same digital precision and conservative philosophy we bring to everything else.

Instead of brackets and wires, Invisalign uses custom-made plastic aligners that fit snugly over your teeth. Each set is shaped slightly differently from the last, applying gentle, controlled pressure that moves your teeth a little at a time. You wear each set as directed by Dr. Adel, then switch to the next — progressing step by step toward your final alignment. Because the aligners are removable, there are no food restrictions: you simply take them out to eat and brush. And because they’re clear, most people won’t notice you’re wearing them at all.
Invisalign can treat many common alignment concerns, including:
Every case is different. At your consultation, Dr. Adel will evaluate your bite with digital imaging and tell you honestly whether clear aligners are the right approach for you — or whether another option would serve you better. Severe or complex cases sometimes need a different path, and we’d rather tell you that upfront.
Clear aligners are a natural fit for a conservative practice: straightening teeth with aligners preserves your natural tooth structure — there’s no filing or reshaping the way other cosmetic treatments require. And our fully digital workflow makes the process comfortable from day one: your teeth are captured with fast digital scanning (no messy impressions), and 3D planning lets you preview your projected result before you commit. As a single-doctor private practice, your treatment is overseen by Dr. Adel personally from the first scan to the final retainer — no handoffs, no rotating providers.
We discuss your goals, evaluate your bite and alignment with digital imaging, and take a comfortable 3D scan of your teeth. If Invisalign is right for you, Dr. Adel maps your tooth movements digitally and you’ll preview the projected outcome.
Your aligners are custom-made for your teeth. You’ll wear them 20 to 22 hours a day — removing them only to eat, drink anything but water, brush, and floss — and advance through the series on the schedule Dr. Adel sets for you.
You’ll come in periodically so Dr. Adel can track your progress and make any refinements. When treatment is complete, custom retainers help maintain your new alignment for the long term.
Most patients adapt to aligners within a few days. You may notice mild pressure when switching to a new set — that’s normal and usually fades quickly. Keep your aligners and teeth clean with daily brushing, rinse (don’t use hot water on) your trays, and store them in their case whenever they’re out of your mouth. There are no dietary restrictions, and check-in visits are quick.
Most Invisalign patients are adults, and for good reason: the aligners are nearly invisible in professional and social settings, there are no dietary restrictions to navigate at business lunches, and check-in visits are quick. But clear aligners also work well for responsible teens whose adult teeth have come in — the removability that adults love for dining applies equally to school lunches and sports (just remember the case: aligners should never go in a napkin or pocket). Whether you’re 16 or 60, the process is the same: digital scan, custom aligner series, and Dr. Adel personally tracking your progress. And because straightening with aligners preserves your natural tooth structure, it’s one of the most conservative ways to transform a smile — very much in keeping with how we practice.

It starts with a conversation. At your Invisalign consultation, we’ll evaluate your bite and alignment with digital imaging, take a comfortable 3D scan, and show you a preview of your projected result. You’ll leave with a personalized plan, a clear timeline estimate, and upfront pricing — then decide in your own time, with zero pressure. Evening appointments are available by appointment.

Adel Dentistry is not a regular dental office. Dr. Mustafa Adel is an award-winning cosmetic dentist with hospital-level training: a General Practice Residency (GPR) at Saint Vincent Hospital in Cleveland covering advanced dentistry, trauma, surgery, and implants — plus a Fellowship in implants from the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (ICOI).
Invisalign uses a series of custom-made clear plastic aligners. Each set applies gentle pressure to move your teeth slightly, and you progress through the series on your doctor’s schedule until your teeth reach their planned positions.
It varies with the complexity of your case. At your consultation, Dr. Adel will evaluate your alignment with digital imaging and give you a personalized estimate before you begin.
For the best results, wear your aligners 20 to 22 hours a day, removing them only to eat, drink anything besides water, brush, and floss. Consistent wear is the biggest factor in staying on schedule.
It depends on your case and your lifestyle. Clear aligners are discreet, removable, and have no food restrictions — most adults prefer them. Traditional braces can be the better choice for severe or complex alignment issues. Dr. Adel will recommend whichever option truly fits your situation.
Absolutely — most Invisalign patients are adults and teens. It’s never too late to straighten your teeth, and the discreet appearance of aligners is a major reason working professionals choose them.
Cost depends on the complexity and length of your case. At your consultation, we’ll give you clear, upfront pricing before anything is scheduled. We accept most PPO dental insurance plans, and our in-house membership plan offers an option for patients without insurance.
