Invisalign Aligners

Invisalign® aligners offer a contemporary and innovative approach to teeth straightening, eliminating the obvious inconvenience of traditional braces. These clear, removable aligners are designed to transform your smile discreetly and comfortably.

What are Invisalign® aligners?

Invisalign® aligners are transparent, custom-made orthodontic devices that effectively correct dental alignment issues. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign® aligners are removable and nearly invisible, offering a less invasive and more aesthetic approach to straightening teeth. 

How do Invisalign® aligners work?

The process starts with a detailed consultation at our studio, where we take impressions of your teeth to ensure a perfect, personalised fit. Based on these impressions, a unique treatment plan is crafted to gradually guide your teeth into their correct positions. 

We will provide you with a series of aligners, each slightly different from the last. Each set is worn for about two weeks before moving on to the next in the series, continuously and gently shifting your teeth toward the desired alignment. 

What’s the difference between Invisalign® aligners and metal braces?

Unlike metal braces, Invisalign® aligners are fully removable, allowing easier cleaning and eating. There are no wires or brackets, which minimises discomfort and simplifies dental hygiene. 

Invisalign®’s clear design makes them nearly invisible, which is often preferred by adults and teens alike for aesthetic reasons. 

What conditions do Invisalign® aligners treat?

Invisalign® aligners are suitable for treating various orthodontic issues, including:

• Underbites, crossbites, and deep bites.
• Widely spaced teeth.
• Overcrowded teeth.

While they are incredibly effective for a wide range of alignment conditions, they are typically not recommended for the most severe cases of misalignment and malocclusion.

What are the benefits of Invisalign® aligners?

• Comfort and Convenience: Invisalign® aligners’ smooth, plastic construction avoids the irritation often caused by traditional braces’ brackets and wires. 
• Customised Treatment: Each aligner is custom-made to fit snugly over your teeth, tailored precisely to your dental structure.
• Effective for Diverse Cases: Invisalign® can correct everything from minor misalignments to more complex dental issues.
• Speed: In many cases, the treatment period is shorter than that of traditional braces.
• Safety: With no metal parts, Invisalign® reduces the risk of mouth abrasions.
• Subtle Appearance: The clear design makes them virtually invisible, enhancing your confidence while you undergo treatment. 

How do I care for my Invisalign®?

Maintaining your Invisalign® aligners is straightforward:

• Take out your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water. 
• Store them in their designated case when not in use to prevent damage.
• Clean your aligners daily by rinsing and soaking them in a denture cleaner, then gently brushing them. 
• Always brush your teeth before reinserting the aligners to maintain optimal oral hygiene.
