Invisalign®
Are you looking for an alternative to braces? Clear systems like Invisalign aligners make it easier to straighten your teeth discreetly and comfortably.
Invisalign’s predictable system is a simple way to enjoy a straighter smile without metal brackets and wires. Each set of aligners is customised to your unique bite, allowing you to complete the teeth straightening process in fewer trips to our practice.
Invisalign Advantages
- Removable trays are easy to clean, so there’s no need to adapt your oral hygiene routine. Simply brush and floss as normal.
- Clear aligners are practically invisible to the people around you, making your orthodontic experience as subtle as possible.
- >Eat whatever you want. Since you remove your aligners during meals, there’s no added risk of something like a bracket or wire breaking.
- No irritating appliances that rub or feel uncomfortable. Each tray is shaped to your unique smile.
- Appropriate for adults of all ages. Teens too!
Thanks to advancements in technology, Invisalign can correct anywhere from minor tooth misalignment to severe malocclusion cases. As such, the length varies from one person to the next, depending on your situation. During your comprehensive evaluation we’ll discuss your goals and smile anatomy. From there, we’ll be able to provide a timeline estimate so that you know what to expect.
Treatments tend to range from 6-24 months, depending on the situation. Short-term orthodontics that are restricted to the front teeth alone tend to be the quickest to complete. But a more complex case that involves your full mouth may require a year or more. It all depends on the extent of crowding or space concerns.
The cost of Invisalign is related to your complexity and length of treatment. Most of our patients are surprised to find that clear aligners are more affordable than they realised. We’ll provide you with a complimentary quote during your evaluation.
Invisalign was designed with adults in mind, but teens may qualify for treatment as well. The most important requirements are having teeth and gums that are healthy. As long as you’re committed to wearing your aligners and changing them out as prescribed, you can expect the process to be as simple as possible.
It’s important to wear your trays for at least a minimum of 22 hours per day. This gives enough leeway to remove the aligners during meals or for brushing and flossing. Additionally, the sets of trays are typically changed out every 14 days. Do not replace them sooner or later than directed, as doing so could lead to delayed results or added complications.
There are a lot of DIY invisible aligner companies out there who claim to let you straighten your teeth at home. Unfortunately, they’re not always closely monitored by a dentist or orthodontist when it comes to your natural biological situation. As such, there’s more of a risk for complications, failed results or future damage to your smile.
Since Invisalign is carefully overseen by our preferred provider, you can expect individualised and predictable results. Each personalised scan and mould precisely dictates your teeth straightening experience, per your unique oral anatomy. As such, Invisalign is a highly accurate and predictable choices for our patients looking for the best clear orthodontics.
