Invisalign is one of the most innovative orthodontic treatments on the market. Its introduction to dental practices all over the world has helped thousands of people receive the treatment they need, while avoiding the discomfort of thick metal brackets and wires.

Orthodontic problems are very common but many people put off having treatment due to the stigma attached to wearing braces. For years, people have been familiar with the high school image of the unpopular kid wearing braces and glasses and, for many, this has influenced the way they feel about orthodontic treatments. However, orthodontics is a rapidly advancing field and a host of new treatments have helped quash the stereotypical image of braces and enable many people to enjoy beautiful, straight smiles without having to worry about what they look like when they are wearing braces.

How does Invisalign Lite work?

Invisalign Lite was developed to offer patients with minor orthodontic problems all the benefits of traditional Invisalign braces, while enabling a quicker treatment time. Invisalign Lite is designed to treat minor issues and treatment time is usually between five and six months. The Invisalign Lite system works in the same way as Invisalign, involving a series of custom-made aligners which gradually move the teeth into the patient’s desired positioning. Patients will need to follow a two week schedule of wearing each aligner before replacing it with the next in the cycle. To reap full rewards the aligners need be worn for at least 22 hours per day.

Why choose Invisalign Lite?

Invisalign Lite is an ideal solution for people who want to make minor improvements to their smile, without having to worry about wearing ugly, bulky braces for long periods of time. The Invisalign Lite braces are clear, meaning that you can achieve the smile of your dreams without anyone else even realising that you are wearing braces.
