Developed by Align Technology together with leading orthodontists in 1997, Invisalign straightens your teeth using a series of custom-made clear aligners. Comfortable, clear and removable – Invisalign transforms your smile without disrupting your life. Something that over 8 million people worldwide have already discovered
By using advanced technology, Invisalign can treat a broad range of dental and orthodontic issues that were previously treated with traditional braces – from minor tooth movements to more complex cases.
We will take you through the Case Assessment, which is a simple set of photos to determine whether you are suitable for Invisalign treatment.
If treatment is right for you, we'll take photos, X-rays and digital scans, or a dental impression, of your teeth. Then we'll create you a digital treatment plan, using our state of the art technology, showing you what your results could look like via a 3D video.
We'll give you a series of aligners to wear every day and change at home – on average every 1-2 weeks (as directed by your Dentist). You can comfortably wear your aligners for 22 hours a day (the recommended daily wear). And because they're removable, it's easy to maintain your normal oral hygiene routine and enjoy your usual diet.
We'll invite you back to the practice around every 4-6 weeks to monitor progress and hand over your new aligners. At the end of your treatment, you will need to wear your retainers to maintain your new smile.
The price of the Invisalign treatment depends on the complexity of your dental correction and your course of treatment. To find out how much the Invisalign treatment would be for you please book a complimentary consultation with our treatment coordinator.
Unlike braces, Invisalign clear aligners are removable and virtually invisible. There are no wires and brackets, so you do not need to change the way you brush and floss. As well as this, you can continue to eat all your favourite foods.
Furthermore, Invisalign clear aligners are made from SmartTrack™ material. This advanced technology helps move your teeth more predictably, which helps you to get the smile you want up to 50% faster than any other clear aligners.
Yes, you can remove your aligners for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.
However, remember to wear them 20 to 22 hours a day to get the best results.
You may feel some discomfort for the first few days after wearing a new set of aligners. This is normal and is usually described as a feeling of slight pressure. This is a sign that the Invisalign aligners are working and are transforming your smile.
The best way to clean your aligners is by brushing them and rinsing them with warm water. We can also recommend you cleaning tablets for your aligners.
It is also very important to brush your teeth after each meal before re-inserting your aligners to maintain good oral hygiene and prevent your aligners from staining.
