Achieve a Confident Smile with Invisalign® Clear Aligners
Discreet, comfortable and tailored teeth-straightening — see your smile transform.
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign® clear aligners are an advanced orthodontic system designed to straighten teeth
without traditional wires and brackets. The aligners are virtually invisible and removable,
allowing you to eat, drink, brush and floss normally. According to the UK site, this system is
used by adults, teens and children alike, and is created from over 25 years of innovation with
more than 20 million smile transformations worldwide.
They’re made from SmartTrack® material for improved comfort and precision.
Why Choose Invisalign®?
- Discreet appearance: The aligners are clear and fit snugly over your teeth — ideal if
you want a less noticeable option. - Comfort & technology: Only Invisalign® uses SmartTrack® material, proven to
move teeth predictably and comfortably. - Fewer visits: On average, Invisalign® treatment may require fewer in-office visits
than fixed appliances. - Versatile: From slight shifts to complex movements, Invisalign® clear aligners can
treat a wide range of cases. - Convenient & hygienic: You can remove your aligners to eat, drink and clean your
teeth — offering better hygiene than brackets and wires.
How Invisalign® Works
Step 1 – Free Consultation & Digital Scanning
We’ll meet, review your dental history, take 3D scans or impressions, and discuss what
you’d like to achieve.
Step 2 – Customised Treatment Plan
Your orthodontist will map out your unique tooth-movement plan using advanced software.
Step 3 – Receive Your Aligners
You’ll get a series of custom-made aligners. Each set is typically worn for 1-2 weeks, for
about 20-22 hours a day.
Step 4 – Switching Sets & Monitoring Progress
Every few weeks you switch to the next tray. We’ll monitor your progress and adjust as
needed.
Step 5 – Completion & Retention
When your teeth are aligned, the active phase ends, and retainers are provided to maintain
your new smile.
Is Invisalign® Right for You?
Invisalign® is suitable for many adults and teens who want a discreet, effective treatment. It
works well for:
- Crowded teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Overbite, underbite or cross-bite
Because the aligners are removable, they require discipline (wearing approx 20-22
hours/day) to be effective.
Good fit if you:
- Want a discreet treatment option
- Are motivated to wear the aligners as advised
- Maintain good oral hygiene and attend scheduled check-ups
Things to consider: - Not all cases can be treated solely with aligners — some complex skeletal/bite issues
may need fixed appliances. - There is still a cost and time commitment involved.
- Wearing retainers after treatment is essential to maintain results.
Q: How long will my treatment take?
A: The duration depends on the complexity of your case. For mild misalignment it might be
3-6 months; moderate cases 6-12 months; more complex scenarios can take 18+ months.
Q: Do the aligners hurt?
A: You may feel slight pressure when you switch to a new tray — this means movement is
happening. It’s typically mild and temporary.
Q: Can I eat and drink as normal?
A: Yes — aligners are removed for eating and drinking anything other than water. Then you
replace them and continue wearing for the advised 20-22 hours/day.
Q: What happens after treatment ends?
A: You’ll receive retainers (often nightly) to help maintain your new alignment. Without
retainers, your teeth may gradually shift back.
Q: Are Invisalign aligners suitable for children and teens?
A: Yes. The UK site mentions Invisalign First™ for children aged 6+ and aligners for teens
and adults — many thousands of cases have been treated.
Q: Are aligners better than braces?
A: Aligners offer distinct advantages (discreet, removable, fewer visits) but for some complex
orthodontic issues, fixed braces may still be recommended.
