Invisalign^®Aligners

A common concern patients have about wearing braces is the impact it may have on their appearance and speech, especially in today’s busy world of work and socialising.

However, with Invisalign® aligners you can enjoy creating a naturally beautiful smile, without the worry of treatment affecting your appearance or speech in any way.

Crooked teeth, protruding front teeth, teeth with gaps between them, and functional bite issues can be resolved with this revolutionary straightening system, specifically designed for adults and children where discreet braces is a priority.

Invisalign® treatment is completely discrete and unnoticeable. Treatment is provided using a series of removable transparent aligners (similar to teeth whitening trays or clear retainers) which sit snugly and discreetly against the teeth.  Each aligner is custom designed to move individual teeth in a certain way.  The number of aligners required will depend on the amount of correction needed to create the smile desired. Your specialist orthodontist will use a high-tech iTero 3D scanner to take a 3D digital image of your teeth and produce an outcome simulation of what your teeth could look like after they are straightened. She will then be able to carefully plan your orthodontic treatment with the Align Technology laboratory and take you through your treatment, monitoring your progress regularly along the way.
