Every innovative feature of the
Invisalign System is designed to reveal the smile that you deserve. It’s
why millions of people have now transformed their lives with removable,
near-invisible aligners.
Custom-made to move your teeth little
by little, each tiny shift takes you a step closer to that next version of you
– efficiently, gently and accurately.
Made to
move all sorts of smiles.
Invisalign treatment is
clinically proven to be effective. In the hands of an experienced Invisalign
Provider it can be used to treat mild to complex teeth straightening
issues, like:
- Underbite – dental
condition characterized by lower teeth that extend outward farther than the
upper front teeth.
- Open bite – lack
of occlusion of the front teeth when the jaw is closed normally.
- Crossbite – when
the upper and lower teeth close in a bite, the two sets of teeth don’t meet
correctly.
- Overly
crowded – misaligned teeth. Teeth that are not lined up properly’. Patients
with malocclusion have teeth that are not as straight as they should be, and
this is often not ideal for a number of reasons.
- Deep bite – the
upper front teeth excessively overlap the bottom front teeth when back teeth
are closed.
- Gapped Teeth –
also called a diastema (plural diastemata), it is a space or gap between
two teeth.
On your terms
Our
state-of-the-art digital treatment planning tools mean you only need short and usually
non-invasive visits to your Invisalign Provider every 6 to 8 weeks. They’ll
provide you with your next series of aligners to take home – so you can change
them every 1-2 weeks, wherever you might be.
More precise,
less pain
Aligners
made from SmartTrack material are more comfortable, trimmed to
your exact gum line to fit better, and are easy to put in and take out.
They’re also less painful than braces.
Made to move
your life, not disrupt it
Because
the aligners are removable, you can easily take them in and out to continue
enjoying the food you love without any restrictions. For those who participate
in contact sports, Invisalign clear aligners can be removed before you
play.
Is Invisalign for me?
As
with any brace, for Invisalign to work you would need to adjust your lifestyle
a little bit. The aligners must be worn for 22 hours every day and you are not
allowed to eat or drink (except cold water) when you wear it. If you are not
strict with wearing the aligners, you may be faced with your treatment taking
longer than planned or not achieving the best result possible. You do not have
to change your diet but you will have to clean your teeth and your aligners
after every snack, drink or meal.
Most
cases are suitable for Invisalign, however in some occasions only a fixed brace
will provide the best result. Book your consultation with our Invisalign
Provider and he can answer your questions and guide you through the entire
process.
How
long should each aligner be worn for?
The
aligners should be worn for 2 weeks and then changed for the next set. Moving
teeth should be done as slow and gentle as possible to avoid shrinkage of the
roots which can make teeth less stable and become mobile over time.
Are
they completely invisible?
The
aligners are clear and virtually invisible; however the aligners can make your
teeth appear shinier and may discolour slightly close to your next aligner
change. Many patients get through treatment and tell no-one even knew.
Does Invisalign cause speak difference?
Not
in a long term but at the beginning there may be temporary change to your
speech when you are getting used to your new aligners.
How to clean aligners?
The
best way to clean your aligners is with a very soft toothbrush and a small
amount of your daily toothpaste. You can also purchase cleaning tablets that
dissolve in water to use occasionally if you feel that your aligners need
freshening up.
