Invisalign clear aligners

Invisalign®

Straightening your teeth

Many people have crooked and/or over-crowded teeth, which can affect the way they look and the way their teeth bite together, as well as their confidence.

Invisalign® is the invisible way to straighten teeth using a series of custom made, nearly undetectable aligners.

There are no metal wires or brackets involved so the treatment is really comfortable and because it’s removable, eating, brushing and flossing are no problem.  

The clear aligner is similar to a mouthguard and is excellent at straightening crooked, gappy or even overlapping teeth. The aligners are clear, wafer thin and made of a transparent medical grade plastic. They are designed so that you wear each positioner for approximately two weeks. They gently and gradually move your teeth from their present position to the desired position.

A great first impression with iTero digital scanner

To help create a perfect impression of your teeth we are proud owners of an iTero® Element™ Intraoral Scanner. The iTero Element Scanner is a state-of-the-art digital impression system that eliminates the need for messy putty in your mouth.

With our iTero Element Scanner, we can digitally capture a detailed 3D model of your teeth and gums. Not only is this process far more comfortable than the
old putty based impressions, but it’s faster and can offer a superior
clinical endpoint.

• No goop or gag to worry about
• Fast, accurate impression
• See a simulation of your potential

During the impression process, you can breathe or swallow as you normally would. You can even pause during the process if you need to sneeze or just want to ask a question. The scanner gives us a 3D model of your mouth to show you what your new smile might look like.

Aftercare

After your treatment has been complete, retention is key to maintaining your new smile. We  recommend fixed and removable retainers to prevent relapse. Find out more.
