Invisalign®
Invisalign® treatment involves straightening your teeth using a series of clear, personalised, removable appliances called aligners. The aligners are virtually invisible; hence their name 'Invisalign', so, most people won't even notice you're wearing them!
How does Invisalign® treatment work?
High tech, 3D computer graphics technology is combined with the century-old science and knowledge of orthodontics. Invisalign® aligners are devised to gradually move your teeth to the desired final position advised by your orthodontist. Each aligner is uniquely developed to fit your mouth at each stage of the treatment plan.
Could I benefit from Invisalign®?
To determine if you are suitable for Invisalign® treatment you will need to make an appointment with one of our orthodontists. Generally, if you are suitable for braces you will be suitable for Invisalign®. If you can benefit from Invisalign®, you will have a treatment plan developed and, using advanced computer technology, aligners will be manufactured specifically for your treatment. Depending on your requirements there can be anywhere from 12 to 48 aligners manufactured. Each aligner is worn for approximately two weeks and only taken out to eat, brush, and floss. Each new aligner is designed to gradually move your teeth into their correct position. As you replace each aligner with the next, your teeth will begin to move gradually, week-by-week until they are in the desired position.
Why choose Invisalign®?
When people think of straightening their teeth, many think of traditional, visible, chunky, silver braces. But with Invisalign®, most people won’t even notice you're receiving treatment! If you're self-conscious about how you look, Invisalign might be the solution for you.
What are the benefits of Invisalign®?
- The aligners can be taken out for special occasions, e.g. school formals, weddings, photos
- They are almost invisible
- Treatment time is generally quicker than traditional braces, average treatment time being 12 months
Don’t hide your smile!
People with traditional braces tend to feel self-conscious about their smile. With Invisalign® you don’t need to hide it!
