If we told you that we could straighten your teeth with no pain and no stress using braces that are completely invisible when you smile, you may think that we’re making it all up and trying to sell you a treatment, which is too good to be true. The good news is that Invisalign really is everything it’s cracked up to be and you really can have the smile of your dreams without anybody being able to spot your brace.

The ins and outs of Invisalign

Invisalign is an invisible brace treatment, which has taken the world by storm and enabled thousands of people to undergo treatment with confidence and reassurance. With Invisalign, you wear a series of specially designed invisible aligners and you can enjoy incredible results without any worries about how you look, what other people will think or how you’ll come across in social or professional situations.

The treatment process for Invisalign is different to traditional fixed braces because multiple appliances are used rather than a single brace. Each patient is given a set of aligners and the aligners are arranged in a specific sequence; each one is worn for 2 weeks and should be in place for a minimum of 21 hours per day. You can remove your aligner very simply and quickly to eat, drink and clean your teeth.

How does Invisalign work?

Invisalign aligners are custom-designed and each patient has an individual plan, which is drawn up using sophisticated software and plots the movement of the teeth. The aligners are created based on this plan and each one is slightly different. The forces generated by the aligner cause the teeth to move gradually and eventually, after the last aligner is removed, you’ll be ready to show off the results of your treatment.

Who is a good match for Invisalign?

Unsurprisingly, this treatment is very popular with adults and teenagers and it caters for patients with varying needs. Your Harley Street Dental Studio dentist will be able to assess whether this system is a good match for you when you have your consultation.
