Invisalign great for arch widening and smile broadening

Gabriela Hricko, DDS answers: How long does it take to widen arch with Invisalign?

I am getting my arch widened to straighten teeth instead of IPR (Interproximal Reduction). Does it take a long time to widen the arch with Invisalign?

Invisalign is great for arch expansion which can help give a wider "Hollywood" smile as well as make space to alleviate the crowding.  It is hard to put an exact time on it but usually takes between 6 and 10 months.
