Are misaligned teeth keeping you from smiling confidently in photos or social situations? Whether you’re dealing with gaps, crowding, or bite issues, orthodontic treatment can transform your smile without the metal brackets and wires of traditional braces. At Alber Dental Studio, we understand that adults and teens want effective solutions that fit seamlessly into their lifestyles.
As a Silver Level Invisalign provider, Dr. Marc Alber has helped many Boulder patients achieve beautifully straight teeth using clear aligner technology. Our cosmetic dentistry practice combines advanced orthodontic solutions with personalized care, ensuring you receive treatment that aligns with both your dental goals and your daily routine.
Clear aligners offer a modern alternative to conventional orthodontics. These custom-made, transparent trays gradually shift your teeth into their ideal positions while remaining virtually invisible during treatment. According to the American Association of Orthodontists, one in four orthodontic patients today is an adult seeking solutions that don’t interfere with their professional or personal lives.
The smooth, BPA-free plastic aligners eliminate the discomfort often associated with metal braces. You can remove them for eating, brushing, and special occasions, making oral hygiene significantly easier throughout your treatment journey. This removability means you won’t need to avoid your favorite foods or struggle with flossing around brackets and wires.
Treatment typically involves wearing each set of aligners for about two weeks before progressing to the next set in the series. You’ll visit our Boulder office for occasional progress checkups, allowing Dr. Alber to monitor your results and ensure everything moves according to plan. Most patients complete their treatment in 12 to 18 months, though your specific timeline depends on your unique orthodontic needs.
Invisalign has transformed the way adults and teens approach orthodontic treatment — and at Alber Dental Studio, we offer this proven clear aligner system as part of our comprehensive cosmetic and restorative care. Dr. Marc Alber will create a customized treatment plan that moves your teeth into alignment gradually, discreetly, and on a timeline that works for your life.
Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation where Dr. Alber evaluates your teeth, bite alignment, and overall oral health. Using digital impressions captured with our advanced technology, we create a precise 3D model of your teeth. This technology eliminates the need for uncomfortable traditional molds while providing exceptional accuracy for your custom aligners. Dr. Alber states, “We have a policy in our office that we don’t recommend treatment unless we can show you a picture of what we want to do and why we want to do it.”
Once Dr. Alber confirms you’re a good candidate for Invisalign, you’ll receive your first set of aligners. Each aligner is numbered sequentially and designed to create specific movements at each stage of treatment. You’ll wear your aligners for 20 to 22 hours daily, removing them only for meals and oral hygiene.
Our practice doesn’t take shortcuts with orthodontic care. Dr. Alber’s commitment to staying at the forefront of dental innovation means you benefit from the latest techniques and technology. As a mentor for Cerecdoctors.com and educator at the Scottsdale Center for Dentistry, he brings extensive expertise to every case. Our team takes time to explain what Invisalign will and won’t accomplish for your specific situation, ensuring you have realistic expectations from the start.
We also offer convenient hours with Friday appointments starting at 7 a.m., making it easier to schedule checkups around your work and family commitments. Our sedation dentistry options are available if you experience dental anxiety during appointments.
Many adults in Boulder choose Invisalign to correct alignment issues that developed after wearing retainers inconsistently or to address shifting that naturally occurs with age. The discreet nature of clear aligners makes them particularly appealing for professionals who interact with clients regularly or anyone who simply prefers not to draw attention to their orthodontic treatment.
Teenagers benefit from Invisalign Teen, which includes compliance indicators that fade with wear to help parents monitor usage. This system accommodates the growth and changes typical during adolescent years while providing the aesthetic advantages that matter to image-conscious teens.
Clear aligners can address various orthodontic concerns:
A closing sentence follows the list to properly transition to the next section about maintaining results.
Once your treatment concludes, wearing a retainer becomes essential for preserving your newly aligned smile. Teeth naturally want to shift back toward their original positions, so consistent retainer use protects your investment. Dr. Alber will provide specific guidance about how often you need to wear your retainer based on your individual case.
Regular dental checkups and professional cleanings help ensure your teeth and gums remain healthy throughout and after orthodontic treatment. Our general dentistry services support your long-term oral health alongside any cosmetic improvements you achieve.
For over 26 years, Dr. Marc Alber has served the Boulder community with comprehensive dental care that combines cutting-edge technology with genuine personal attention. Our practice utilizes digital impressions, advanced imaging, and same-day restoration capabilities to provide efficient, comfortable treatment experiences.

Alber dental is a truly outstanding practice. By far the best dental practice I have visited. Every person there cares deeply about their patients and providing a comfortable, relaxing and extremely professional experience for their guests. Cannot recommend highly enough.
A true 5 stars experience. I’m a new patient. Had a great experience under the care of two lovely and skilled hygienists, both highly knowledgeable and with good manner. My interactions with Dr Alber were also very pleasant, filled with great info and advice and without the feeling badgering salesmanship of upselling me on orthodontics I know I don’t need. Overall, very content and will be happy to return.
Having recently moved to Boulder, I feel lucky to have found this dental practice. They carefully diagnosed and quickly addressed the problems I had with a couple of teeth. All of the staff are very knowledgeable and communicate well.I feel that they know and care about their patients, and I’ve learned a lot about teeth!
I had a very good experience at Alber Dental. The technology is modern and efficient with crowns and onlays completed in under two hours. Everyone I interacted with are professional, polite and happy to answer questions. On top of that, they accept my insurance.
Dr. Alber is the best. He employs the best hygienists who use the best instruments, he provides the latest gadgets ensuring patient comfort. The office is comfortable. I will never have another dentist
