Most Phoenix-area adults and teens looking for clear aligner treatment do not want to drive into the city for every appointment. Nathan Davis Orthodontics offers Invisalign near Phoenix from two East Valley locations in Mesa and Chandler, both within easy reach of the Phoenix metro area. Dr. Nathan Davis is a certified Invisalign provider with over 20 years of orthodontic experience, a Tufts University residency, and a 50-year family tradition of creating confident smiles across the region.
Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, clear plastic aligner trays to move your teeth gradually into their correct positions. Each tray is worn for approximately one to two weeks before advancing to the next in the series. The trays are nearly invisible when worn and are removed for eating, drinking, and brushing.
The process at Nathan Davis Orthodontics begins with a 3D digital scan of your teeth. Dr. Davis uses that scan to map every planned tooth movement digitally, which means you can see a projection of your expected result before a single aligner is made. That planning precision is part of what makes Invisalign treatment here different from a basic certification-level provider.
20-plus years of Invisalign experience: Dr. Davis has been a certified Invisalign provider since early in his career. That depth of case volume and clinical experience means he can handle mild, moderate, and more complex aligner cases confidently, and will tell you honestly at the consultation if a different treatment would produce a better result.
Not every case is suited to Invisalign, and not every patient wants traditional braces. Here is a straightforward comparison to help you understand the difference before your consultation:

Dr. Davis reviews your specific teeth and bite at the free consultation and gives you an honest recommendation. He offers the full range of treatment options, including Invisalign, SureSmile, Damon braces, ceramic braces, lingual braces, and traditional metal braces, so the recommendation is based on your clinical needs, not a preference for one system. For patients exploring braces near Phoenix, AZ, the full range of fixed appliance options is available at both offices.
Most Invisalign patients at Nathan Davis Orthodontics complete active treatment in 12 to 22 months. Simpler cases can finish faster. Dr. Davis provides a personalized timeline at the consultation based on the actual complexity of your case.
Invisalign works well for a wide range of presentations, including:
Invisalign is not the right fit for every case. Severe crowding, significant skeletal jaw discrepancies, and some complex bite issues are better served by fixed braces. Dr. Davis will tell you directly at the consultation which option gives you the best outcome for your specific teeth and goals.
Dr. Davis grew up in Mesa, AZ, and has been practicing orthodontics in the East Valley since 2001. He completed his dental education at the University of Pacific School of Dentistry and his orthodontic specialty residency at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine.
He is a member of the American Association of Orthodontists and the Pacific Coast Society of Orthodontists, and completes up to three times the continuing education required each year. He is also one of a small number of orthodontists in the Phoenix area with the credentials to offer lingual braces. Learn more on the about page.
His practice philosophy is simple: every patient deserves the smile they were meant to have, and every recommendation should be honest. For patients searching for Invisalign near Phoenix, that means getting a genuine clinical assessment rather than a default aligner recommendation.
