At Pendleton Orthodontics, we offer Invisalign treatment as a comfortable, discreet way to reach your goals without the look of metal wires.
Dr. Pendleton has spent over 15 years perfecting smiles with clear aligners. Bringing specialized care to our Leander community.
How Invisalign Treatment Works
Invisalign treatment uses a series of custom-made, clear plastic trays called aligners. These fit snugly over your teeth and gently nudge them into place over time.
- Discreet Look: The aligners are almost invisible, so you can feel confident in photos and at work.
- Always Removable: You can take them out to eat, brush, and floss normally.
- Advanced Technology: We use the iTero™ scanner to create a digital map of your smile and bite. This means no messy putty impressions — just a quick, comfortable scan.
Your Journey to a New Smile
We want you to feel comfortable every step of the way. Here is how we get started together:
- Your First Visit
Come in for a free consultation. Dr. Pendleton will look at your smile and listen to what you hope to achieve. We’ll talk through your treatment options and find a treatment path that fits your goals. - Designing Your Plan
We use an iTero™ scanner to show you a preview of your finished smile before you even start. Dr. Pendleton precisely designs each tray to ensure your treatment is efficient. - Wearing Your Aligners
You’ll wear your Invisalign aligners approximately every week as directed.. Every six to eight weeks, you’ll visit our office so we can check on your progress. These visits are usually very quick, since there are no wires to tighten.
Is Invisalign Treatment Right for You?
Many people wonder if clear aligners can handle complex cases. The answer is often yes! Together, we can use the Invisalign system to help with:
- Crowding (teeth that are too close together)
- Gaps (spaces between teeth)
- Overbites and underbites
- Crossbites and open bites
What Are the Benefits of Clear Aligners?
Choosing Invisalign treatment comes with perks that make your daily life easier:
- No Food Restrictions: Since you remove the trays to eat, you can still enjoy popcorn, apples, and candy.
- Easier Cleaning: Brushing and flossing are a breeze because there are no brackets to navigate.
- Fewer Emergencies: You'll experience less visits to the office for repairs, missing less school and work.
- Comfort: The smooth plastic is gentle on your cheeks and gums.
Invisalign Treatment for Teens
We want our younger patients to focus on being themselves — playing sports, musical instruments, and hanging out with friends — without worrying about their orthodontic appliances. Invisalign treatment for teens is designed with an active lifestyle in mind. It's a great way to build a healthy smile while keeping your confidence high.
Invisalign® Aligners Reviews
Dr. Ryan is so patient. Even though I struggled wearing Invisalign as prescribed, he continued working with me to make sure that we still got the outcome of a healthy and straight smile. Everyone in his office is so kind. They are responsive, attentive, and accommodating. Dr. Ryan also did the braces for my son and it was a great experience all around. I’d highly recommend his office. Thanks for everything, Dr. Ryan and team.
We think Ryan and his team are simply phenomenal! They layout options for treatment plans/costs with clarity, support you in planning the right time for you (followup but no pressure) and colaborate wonderfully with our dentist. We’ve had 2 Invisalign, 2 expanders & will have 2-3 more in for braces over the next 5 years. We love that they are community focused and treat you like family!
I’ve had a wonderful experience with Dr Ryan Pendleton for my Invisalign treatment! From the very first consultation, they made me feel comfortable and well-informed about the entire process.The staff is always welcoming, professional, and patient with all my questions. Dr. Ryan explained each step clearly and made sure I knew what to expect. My appointments have always been on time, and the office is clean and organized, which I really appreciate.I’m so happy with how my teeth are shaping up — the results have exceeded my expectations! I highly recommend Pendleton Orthodontics to anyone considering Invisalign. You’ll be in great hands.Thank you for helping me smile with more confidence!
All three of my children received/are receiving orthodontic treatment from Pendleton Orthodontics. I have been thoroughly impressed with 1.) the cleanliness and pleasantness of the office environment (yes, even the bathrooms and reception area are comfortable and spotless), 2.) the professionalism of the entire staff, 3.) the respect and kindness each of the members of the staff showed all the members of my family, 4.) the professionalism and knowledgeability of Dr. Ryan Pendleton himself, 5.) the willingness of staff (and Dr. Ryan) to provide urgent appointments when my children were uncomfortable, 6.) the ease and convenience of financing options and assistance when needed, and finally and most importantly, 7.) the outcome of the treatment. My oldest child is finished and has a beautiful smile. I was so pleased with Pendleton Orthodontics that I started Invisalign Braces myself. I am finished and I am so happy with my treatment and new smile. I have recommended Pendleton to my family and friends and I feel 100% confident about giving Pendleton a 5 star rating on Google.
Dr Ryan and staff did a great job helping me straighten out my teeth. My teeth was a challenge and I committed to doing Invisalign. I’m so glad I did! Dr Ryan was patient and always addressed my concerns. The whole was staff always friendly and professional. Dr Ryan also straightened my daughter’s teeth with braces a couple years back. He did such a great job that I felt confident that I too can commit. So happy I did! Grateful for the Pendleton team.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to wear my aligners each day?
For the best results, you should wear your aligners for at least 22 hours a day. You only take them out to eat, drink anything other than water, and brush your teeth.
Is the treatment painful?
You might feel a little "hug" or pressure on your teeth for the first day or two of a new set of aligners. This is a good sign. It means they are working! Most patients find them very comfortable.
How do I keep my aligners clean?
It’s easy. You can use a specialized cleaning kit or simply a soft toothbrush and clear hand soap to keep them looking fresh.
What happens after treatment?
Healthy smiles are created through our thoughtful treatment approach, but they stay that way with retainers. Once you finish your Invisalign aligners, Dr. Pendleton will provide a retainer to make sure your beautiful results last a lifetime.
