Invisalign takes a modern approach to
straightening teeth, using a custom-made series of aligners created for
you and only you. These aligner trays are made smooth, comfortable and
virtually invisible plastic that you simply wear over your teeth.
Wearing the aligners will gradually and gently shift your teeth into
place, based on the exact movements your dentist or orthodontist plans
out for you. There are no metal brackets to attach and no wires to
tighten. Your simply pop in a new set of aligners approximately every
two weeks, until your treatment is complete and you archive the
confident smile that you've always wanted. The best part about the whole
process is that most people won't even know you're straightening your
teeth.
Result Example
 |
Crowding
This
29-year-old female patient had always felt unhappy with her teeth. Her
upper front teeth were overlapping and her lower front teeth were
crowded, which made cleaning difficult and could potentially lead to
problems with dental decay and gum disease. She had a good and stable
bite, only treatment for the front teeth was therefore required. Her
Invisalign treatment lasted just over 9 months. |
 |
Spacing
In her
late thirties, the space between this 49-year-old female patient’s front
teeth had widened so much that a third front tooth could have fitted
within the space. She previously tried metal braces which didn’t fit
into her lifestyle and had these removed. Within just a few months, she
could really see the difference. She was treated with Invisalign over
the course of 17 months. |
 |
Cross bite
This
male patient felt very self conscious of a prominent canine on the lower
set of teeth, as it protruded outward and caused cross bite problems
with his upper tooth when eating. He wanted to improve the overall
general aesthetics of his smile, but also to stop his lip getting caught
on the neighbouring tooth and to improve issues with chewing. His
Invisalign treatment lasted approximately 12 months. |
 |
Deep bite
This
15-year-old female patient had a deep bite (where the upper front teeth
cover the lower teeth too much), her upper left lateral tooth stuck out
and her lower teeth were crowded. As this made it difficult for her to
clean her teeth properly, her dental practitioner advised her that these
issues may lead to gum disease. She was successfully treated with
Invisalign in approximately 10 months. |
