You may have heard of Invisalign before, or perhaps seen it advertised, but you almost certainly won’t have seen it on someone’s teeth! Invisalign braces provide a completely invisible transparent ‘shield’ that works to gently manipulate your teeth while still allowing you to talk, smile and laugh as normal.

During your first appointment, we will take an exact mould of your teeth and this information will be entered into our computer. We can then manipulate the image of your teeth to create the desired end result, and the computer will work out the intermediate stages needed to achieve this.

The next appointment will involve the fitting of your first transparent Invisalign brace. This will have been carefully manufactured to apply just the right amount of pressure to each individual tooth, enabling the necessary movement for the first stage of treatment.

After two weeks your teeth should have completed their initial transitions, and you will need to return to us to be fitted with the next brace. This process repeats every two weeks so that your teeth follow the schedule required to ultimately achieve your desired end result.

As well as being completely invisible, your Invisalign braces can also be removed whenever necessary, allowing you to eat and brush your teeth with ease. However, you must wear your Invisalign brace for at least 23 hours out of every 24 in order to see timely results from the treatment.
