What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is the number one orthodontic aligner available. Because of its invisible and discreet nature. In the past, the only way to straighten teeth was with metal wires and fixed brackets. Invisalign offers a subtle way to move your teeth gradually without anyone knowing. These removable aligners are often referred to as modern braces and are clear so are virtually invisible to others. whilst you’re undergoing Invisalign treatment your colleagues and friends will hardly notice.

This clear brace is the best alternative to traditional metal braces which can’t be removed once in the mouth. Unlike metal braces you can remove this aligner whenever you need to and pop it back in. This makes caring for the aligner and your teeth and gums easy and hassle free and you can eat what you like during the treatment.

Types of Invisalign treatments

At any of our partner practices near you you can have:

Invisalign Full or Comprehensive

This is for those who need complex dental corrections or full teeth realignment. You can find this option at any of our partner practices near you. The orthodontist and dentist teams can treat moderate to severe cases.

You’ll change to new aligners every 1-2 weeks to move your teeth gradually to the desired outcome. Depending on the condition of your teeth you may receive 15-30 aligners during the Invisalign Full treatment. On average the treatment takes 12-18 months to see results but more complex cases may take 24-36 months.

Invisalign Lite

Invisalign Lite is for patients who need mild to moderate teeth correction. It’s for less complex cases, same treatment time as other options but uses fewer aligners to move your teeth into position, typically 4-8 months to see results.

Invisalign Express or Invisalign i7

The latest version of Invisalign, this is for minor orthodontic corrections. You’re eligible if you have relapsed misalignment, minor gaps, slight overcrowding and similar issues. This treatment gives rapid results as the name suggests, uses 7 aligners to get you aligned. Average treatment time 4 months.

• Crossbite
• Open bite

What are the advantages of Invisalign treatment?

Indeed, Invisalign is the most popular orthodontic solution due to several reasons. First of all, comfort is part of the deal that traditional metal brackets and wires can barely offer; these conventional methods could result in huge irritation in the mouth. Because the aligners are designed to be worn for 22 hours each day, they provide a far more pleasant experience. Another great thing about it is that since there are no wires and metal components involved, patients spend less time in the dentist's chair for adjustments.

Yet, the advantages do not stop with comfort. Invisalign starts moving the teeth right away; thus, it allows people to have the smile they want much sooner than they would have using traditional braces. In most instances, this modern alternative for teeth straightening is actually able to produce quite noticeable results even in a few months, making it effective for many.

The name itself suggests that Invisalign aligners are practically invisible when worn, thus making it inconspicuous for other people to notice that one is going through orthodontic treatment. Besides, the aligners are easily removable, allowing users to enjoy foods without an overly strict diet in the process of treatment.

• Removable aligners: The Invisalign aligners are removable and allow for proper brushing and flossing of teeth for superior oral hygiene. It is easier to clean thoroughly with removable aligners, hence reducing the chances of decalcification, which is one of the main issues regarding traditional orthodontic treatments.
• Custom aligners: Experienced dentists at our partnered dental clinics near you use digital impressions to create custom-made aligners developed case by case. The customized aligners are produced with great care by lab technicians, ensuring treatment is effective, fast, and safe.

How does Invisalign work?

Invisalign uses advanced technology to rearrange teeth with custom-designed, transparent aligners. These nearly invisible braces apply precise force to gradually move each tooth into its optimal position, eliminating the need for traditional fixed wires or brackets. You'll wear each aligner for a few weeks before progressing to the next in the series, continuing until your teeth reach the desired alignment.

Invisalign's 3D imaging technology allows you to visualize your treatment results before starting. Your Invisalign dentist monitors your progress throughout the treatment. However, individual factors can influence aligner efficiency, leading to variations in results. While less cumbersome than conventional procedures, achieving ideal results requires dedication.

Post-treatment after an Invisalign procedure

Following treatment, your UK dentist will provide a custom-made retainer to prevent relapse and maintain results long-term. Both removable and fixed retainers are available, and your dentist will recommend the most suitable option based on your individual needs and preferences.

Aftercare following your Invisalign Treatment

A thorough aftercare program is crucial to maintain your new smile, including retainer wear, good oral hygiene, and continued dental care.

Importance of Retainer Wear:

Retainers prevent teeth from shifting back to their original position after Invisalign treatment. Fixed retainers are attached behind the teeth, while removable retainers can be taken out during specific situations. Consistent wear is essential for optimal results.

Regular Brushing and Flossing:

Even after Invisalign, regular dental checkups are necessary. Professional cleaning by a dental hygienist every six months helps remove plaque and tartar, preventing gum disease. Regular monitoring allows for early detection of oral health issues, keeping your smile healthy and beautiful.

Balanced Diet:

A healthy diet provides essential nutrients for teeth and gums. Crunchy fruits, leafy green vegetables, and dairy products support strong teeth and gums. Limit sugary snacks and fizzy drinks, which can increase the risk of cavities, especially after braces.

Wear a Mouthguard for Sports:

If participating in contact sports or activities that could cause dental trauma, wearing a mouthguard is highly recommended. This simple, inexpensive device prevents teeth and jaw injuries that could affect your Invisalign results.
