Invisalign

​

Invisalign aligners are a type of removable brace that help to straighten your teeth. Unlike traditional metal braces, they’re made of a flexible plastic that you can hardly see. You wear them for most of the day, and can take them out to eat, clean your teeth or for special occasions.

​

A 3D detailed, digital model of your teeth is taken using a state of the art iTero scanner, meaning no messy impressions!

​

The scanner also provides images of your teeth much faster than putty impressions — in some cases, patient scans can be completed in as little as 60 seconds, so you’ll be in and out of the dentist’s chair in no time.

​

And finally, the best bit of all! The real party trick of the scanner is its ability to show you simulations of what your teeth might look like after treatment. This is called the Invisalign Outcome Simulator Pro3. It adds extra benefits with the treatment simulation. This means that you can preview your potential new smile in minutes with simulated in-face visualisation while discussing your treatment options with your dentist, so you can decide on the best outcome together.

About Invisalign aligners

An aligner is a clear, plastic device that fits perfectly over your teeth and helps to line them up correctly. It’s almost invisible and looks like a mouth guard  or retainer. Invisalign is a popular brand of clear aligners that dentists and orthodontists often work with. Think Invisalign — invisible aligners..

Invisalign aligners come in a series of custom-made trays, each one slightly different from the last. You wear each aligner for around two weeks while it puts pressure on your teeth to move them into place, before moving onto the next..

On average, Invisalign treatment takes 12-18 months to complete, but this varies depending on your specific needs..

​

The average cost of Invisalign depends on how much your teeth need to be moved and how long your treatment will take, so it varies from person-to-person. Your dentist will explain the full Invisalign cost before you go ahead with any treatment and you might be able to spread your payments out .
