What are Invisalign clear aligners?
Invisalign clear aligners are an innovative and near-invisible orthodontic option, very popular with adults looking for a discreet way to straighten their teeth. The treatment uses a series of custom clear aligners to gradually move your teeth, with no metal included for a comfortable and aesthetic solution.
Invisalign treatment fits perfectly into your daily life and routines, and you can continue to eat and drink whatever you choose with removable aligners. Simply remember to put your aligners back in your mouth as soon as you can after eating, and wear them for at least 22 hours a day for the best possible results.

Frequently asked questions
Clear aligners are mouth trays custom-made from transparent plastic material to fit snugly and comfortably over your teeth. They exert gentle forces onto your teeth when worn, gradually moving your teeth into straighter positions. Each set of aligners in the treatment series is subtly different, helping your teeth get closer to your dream smile.
Clear braces are a more discreet alternative to traditional metal braces, as they can’t be seen when worn. They are also popular due to their removable nature, requiring no changes to your diet or lifestyle. Traditional metal braces are very visible and fixed into place for the duration of treatment.
Invisalign treatment is suitable for adults and teens wanting to straighten their teeth in a less obvious way. It is particularly useful for cases of adult orthodontic relapse. During your initial consultation, we assess your case and make sure you are suitable for Invisalign treatment before continuing.

While Invisalign clear aligners can treat a wide range of orthodontic issues, they may not be suitable for all cases. It is typically best suited to mild to moderate misalignment, crooked teeth, or bite problems. A consultation with an orthodontist will determine if Invisalign treatment is the right option for you.
Invisalign aligners are typically changed every 1-2 weeks, based on your personalised treatment plan. Your dentist will go over this with you in detail, and is always there to help if you need it.
Following your Invisalign treatment, you need to wear a retainer to stop your teeth moving back to their former position. We advise you to wear your retainer overnight for as long as you want straight teeth!
