Why Choose Invisalign®?
Invisalign® is a popular orthodontic solution due to its several benefits over traditional braces. Key advantages include:
-
Comfort and flexibility: Invisalign® aligners are made from smooth, clear plastic, making them more comfortable and less likely to irritate the gums and cheeks than traditional braces.
-
Aesthetics: The clear aligners are virtually invisible, providing a discreet treatment option for individuals concerned about the appearance of metal braces.
-
Removability: The aligners can be removed when eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing, making it easier to maintain good oral hygiene during treatment.
-
Custom-fit: Each aligner is custom-designed based on digital scans of your teeth, ensuring a precise fit and effective results.

How Invisalign® Works
Invisalign® treatment begins with an initial consultation to assess your dental needs. We will take digital impressions of your teeth, which will be used to create a personalized treatment plan. You will receive a series of aligners, each worn for about two weeks, gradually moving your teeth toward their desired position. Throughout the treatment process, we provide regular check-ups to monitor progress and make adjustments if necessary.
Maintenance and Care
Proper care of Invisalign® aligners is essential to maintain oral hygiene and achieve the intended results:
-
Daily cleaning: Rinsing aligners and brushing them gently prevents buildup and staining.
-
Oral hygiene practices: Brushing and flossing after meals before reinserting aligners reduces the risk of cavities.
-
Safe storage: Aligners should be stored in their protective case when not in use.
-
Avoid heat and staining foods: Hot liquids and certain foods or beverages can warp or discolour aligners.
Our team provides patients with thorough instructions to maintain aligners and oral health throughout treatment.
