Who Can Get Invisalign?
Invisalign is suitable for teens and adults, pending a clinical consultation. Please note that it is essential that a person has healthy teeth for the Invisalign treatment to be effective, and patients with complex dental issues may not be eligible for Invisalign and may require other types of interventions.
Why Choose Invisalign?
Aside from the transparent design, the major advantage of Invisalign aligners is that they don’t require wires or metal devices. Unlike metallic fixed appliances, they are removable so patients can enjoy food and drink whenever they want and brush their teeth easily. Beyond the physical and oral health benefits, improving your smile can help boost your confidence and self-esteem.

The Invisalign Process
Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, custom-made transparent trays which fit your teeth perfectly. Every week, the trays are changed to a different size, and they will slowly move your teeth to the desired position. Aligners must be worn at all times throughout the day and night and should only be removed when you eat, drink, or brush your teeth, or the treatment will be ineffective.
When you choose Invisalign, we will take complex 3D images of your teeth and use these to create your trays for the duration of the treatment. The patient should have a check-up every four to six weeks to ensure that their treatment is progressing properly and change aligners.
A full course of Invisalign for adults will take 12 months on average. However, changes may be visible from as soon as two weeks into treatment. The full course of treatment and aftercare is required to ensure that these results are long-lasting.
Preparation
Before beginning Invisalign treatment, a dentist must assess the condition of your teeth to establish that you are healthy and that treatment of this type will be beneficial and effective. Once this has been determined, treatment can begin. We start by creating a virtual 3D model of your mouth and visualise the expected movement of the teeth so the custom trays can be made.
Aftercare
Once the Invisalign treatment has been completed and the desired results have been achieved, we recommend that you wear a retainer whilst you sleep to ensure the teeth stay in place. If you have any other enquiries after your treatment, please don’t hesitate to contact our dental practice.
