Invisalign Braces

Teeth straightening with invisible braces is a discreet orthodontic technique that uses a series of custom-made, clear braces to gradually move crooked, gappy or crowded teeth to an improved position. As they are almost invisible, wearing Invisalign braces is a less noticeable way to straighten teeth. This treatment is particularly suitable for teenagers or adults who may feel self-conscious about wearing very obvious metal braces.

Invisalign braces can be used to treat over-bite, under-bite, and cross-bite, as well as an overly crowded mouth and gapped teeth. With these types of problems leading to gum disease, tooth wear, tooth decay, mouth pain or even speech impairment, teeth straightening with clear braces can have a really positive impact on your dental health. This could even save you money on potential future dental treatments.

Millions of people have successfully used Invisalign braces. Teeth straightening has never been so easy!

Wearing clear braces as opposed to fixed metal braces has many advantages. Clear braces are:

• Can see the results of your treatment before you sign up with our new iTero scanner
• Almost invisible – there’s no need to feel self-conscious when you’re wearing Invisalign braces
• Affordable – and flexible payment plans help to spread the cost
• Removable – eat the foods you enjoy, clean your teeth as normal, and take them out before playing contact sports
• Less invasive and painful than fixed braces – and just as effective
• 100% custom-made to fit you
• Comfortable and gentle on your teeth – Invisalign braces are clinically proven to improve control of tooth movement

• Step 1: Book your free consultation and talk to our Invisalign treatment co-ordinator

• Step 2: If you are a suitable candidate for this adult-friendly treatment, we take 3D impressions and photos, and collect other information about your teeth

• Step 3: We use special 3D technology to create a personalised teeth straightening plan, which shows how your teeth will move and also how they will look after your treatment

• Step 4: When the clear aligners are ready, you will wear a different one every two weeks until the carefully controlled force shifts your teeth to a better position. As the aligners only work while you are actually wearing them, we recommend they are kept in place for 22–24 hours per day. You may feel minor discomfort when a new aligner is fitted but this is usually just a feeling of pressure and a good indicator that the treatment is working

• Step 5: Treatment times vary depending on your individual issue, but most cases are completed in 6-12 months

• Step 6: Smile with confidence!

Following your Invisalign treatment, you’ll have the straight teeth and the smile you’ve always wanted.

To maintain that smile, you’ll need to wear a retainer to stop your teeth moving back to their former position. You will usually only have to wear the retainer overnight, but that depends on your individual case.

This retainer will be made to fit your mouth, and can either be clear plastic or the traditional wire.

You’ll also need to keep brushing and flossing regularly to maintain healthy teeth.
