Invisalign® offers orthodontic treatment without wearing braces.

Clear Aligners

Invisalign® clear aligners are an excellent option for adults or teens who want to straighten their teeth discreetly without traditional braces.

How Does Invisalign Work?

Instead of using brackets and wires to move teeth, Invisalign uses clear plastic aligners to gently move teeth into alignment. Patients wear their aligners for 20 to 22 hours each day to achieve the best results; however, you can remove the aligners for meals, brushing, and flossing.

Consistent daily wear is the key to success with Invisalign, and most patients complete treatment in 10 to 18 months, depending on their specific needs.

What Are the Advantages of Invisalign?

Clear aligners are smooth and comfortable to wear. They offer discretion and ease since you can remove them for brushing and flossing.

Invisalign also gives you the freedom to enjoy all the foods you love during your treatment, since you can easily remove your aligners.

The Benefits of Straight Teeth

Straightening your teeth does more than just improve the aesthetics of your smile. Here are some of the oral health benefits of straight teeth.

Easier Home Care

Straight teeth are easier to brush and floss, potentially reducing your risk of tooth decay and gum disease.

Improved Function

When your bite is properly aligned, it is easier to chew and eat your food comfortably, which helps improve nutrition and digestion.

Better Jaw Function

With a properly aligned bite, your jaw joints (TMJ) function in the way they were designed, minimising the risk of joint disorders.

Reduced Tooth Wear

When teeth are aligned, they can function as they were designed to, reducing the risk of damage and wear.

Frequently Asked Questions

Invisalign® has become an increasingly popular choice for both teens and adults, and it is easy to see why. These clear, removable aligners offer a discreet and flexible alternative to traditional braces and, for many patients, are every bit as effective. Our dentists will help you weigh up your options and find the best path to a straighter, healthier smile.

Understanding Invisalign Treatment

Invisalign may be the right choice for you if you:

Want a nearly invisible solution that most people will not notice
Have a busy lifestyle and prefer the convenience of removable aligners
Play a musical instrument or a contact sport where traditional braces could cause discomfort
Have mild to moderate alignment issues such as crowding, spacing or a minor bite concern
Are an adult or teenager who feels self-conscious about the appearance of metal braces

Traditional braces, on the other hand, remain the better option for more complex orthodontic cases or for younger children whose teeth are still developing. They are also a great choice for patients who prefer a treatment that does not rely on remembering to wear and change aligners consistently.

If your bite concerns are complex, our dentists may recommend traditional orthodontics to suit your needs.
