Invisalign

Invisalign is the preferred way to straighten teeth without braces, using aligners. These custom-made aligners are removable and virtually invisible, which means you can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing; and you can still eat and drink what you want. Also, you can brush and floss normally to maintain healthy gums and teeth.

One of our most popular orthodontic treatments, Invisalign turns everything you know about braces on its head; it is an advanced orthodontic treatment that straightens teeth using multiple sets of near-invisible aligners.

If the thought of visible wires or food stuck in brackets has been putting you off fixing your dental imperfections, this hassle-free alternative could be just the thing for you.

How Does Invisalign Work?

We will fit your custom-made trays, and then the rest is up to you! Invisalign requires much fewer check-in appointments than traditional, fixed braces, although we will need to see you now and again to check that everything is going as planned. Each set of aligners needs to be worn for at least 22 hours per day, and you will change them every two weeks – as you do so, your teeth will gradually move to the desired position, as outlined in your treatment plan.

Teen Invisalign

Thinking about braces? Think again… Invisalign Teen takes a modern approach to straightening teeth that is comfortable, affordable and effective, and without brackets and wires, you’ll have the confidence of a great smile even during treatment. Unlike traditional metal braces, they do not require any dietary restrictions or any special tools to keep your teeth clean. You simply remove them to eat what you want and brush your teeth like you normally do and then put your aligners back on.

Invisalign means that there is nothing glued to your teeth, no wires, no brackets that can come lose.

Everything is done on the computer using Invisalign’s software programme. From the digital image, the teeth are moved in a prescribed manner set up by your Orthodontist. You will find that tooth movement in some cases with Invisalign is better because it is 100% prescribed – only the teeth you want to move will actually move.

When wearing a fixed braces food can stick around brackets and wires. You can take your aligners out to eat, brush and floss in the normal way, then just put them back in. It also means there are no restrictions to what you can eat.

Treatment time is really dependent a lot on the patient’s cooperation. Patients that don’t wear their aligners and patients that keep breaking their braces will have longer treatment times. What about cost? Fortunately, Invisalign has developed technology today that means the cost has come down significantly and is comparable to metal braces and is now fully supported by our 0% Interest Loan option, click here for more information.
