Invisalign in Mission, Calgary
A straighter smile, without the metal
Clear aligners, planned around your real goals
If you have wanted straighter teeth but dreaded the idea of brackets and wires, Invisalign is the discreet, removable way to get there. Clear aligners gradually shift your teeth into place, and most people won’t even notice you are wearing them.
At Rideau Dental on 4th Street in Mission, a short trip south of downtown and the Beltline, Invisalign treatment starts with a real conversation, not a sales pitch. Dr. Janet Kan takes a diagnosis-driven approach focused on stable, functional, and good-looking results. You’ll understand your plan, your timeline, and your cost before you decide anything.
Why patients

Start with a complimentary consultation
Curious whether Invisalign is right for you? Start with a free consult. Dr. Kan will look at your smile, walk through your options in plain language, and help you understand what treatment would involve.
Discreet by design
Clear aligners are hard to spot, so you can straighten your teeth through work, photos, and everyday life without feeling self-conscious.
Made to come out
Diagnosis-driven, not one-size-fits-all
Dr. Kan plans treatment around your bite and long-term stability — not just how things look at the finish line.
Calm, unhurried care
If dental visits make you anxious, you are in the right place. Expect plain explanations, gentle care, and a team that treats you like a neighbour.

Is Invisalign right for me?
Invisalign works well for many teens and adults dealing with crowding, gaps, or a bite that has never felt quite right. It is an especially popular choice for adults who want a discreet option that fits a busy, professional life.
The best way to know for sure is a complimentary consultation, where Dr. Kan takes a diagnosis-driven look at your teeth and bite and gives you an honest answer about whether aligners will get you the result you want.
Let’s talk fees and insurance
We keep payment straightforward. As a non-assignment clinic, you pay at your visit and submit to your insurer for reimbursement — and we will walk you through exactly how that works. We accept CDCP and welcome private insurance, cash, and credit, and you will always get a clear estimate before treatment begins.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Invisalign right for adults?
Absolutely. Many adults choose Invisalign for a discreet way to straighten their teeth. Dr. Kan takes a diagnosis-driven approach focused on stable, functional, and aesthetic results — not shortcuts.
How long does Calgary Invisalign treatment take?
It depends on how much your teeth need to move. Many cases run roughly 6 to 18 months, and Dr. Kan will give you a realistic timeline at your complimentary consultation after reviewing your iTero scan.
Does Invisalign hurt?
Most people feel mild pressure for a day or two when they switch to a new set of aligners — a sign the treatment is working. It is generally more comfortable than traditional braces, with no brackets or wires to irritate your cheeks.
How many hours a day do I wear the aligners?
For the best results, wear them about 20 to 22 hours a day, taking them out only to eat, drink anything other than water, brush, and floss.
Is Invisalign better than braces?
Both straighten teeth well. Invisalign is removable and far less noticeable, which most adults prefer, while some complex cases are still better suited to braces. The consultation will tell you which is right for your situation.
Do you offer a free Invisalign consultation?
Yes. We offer a complimentary Invisalign consultation so you can explore your options, see whether you are a candidate, and get a clear sense of timeline and cost before committing.
Will insurance or CDCP help cover Invisalign?
Coverage varies by plan. We accept CDCP and welcome private insurance, and we will give you a clear estimate and explain your benefits before you start.
