Clear Braces to Straighten Your Teeth

Invisalign clear braces are custom-made clear removable aligners designed to fit over teeth. The Aligners gently guide teeth into position fixing dental issues such as overbites, underbites, and crooked teeth. Invisalign treatment focuses on precision and patient comfort. Invisalign aligners effectively address various orthodontic problems including crowding, unwanted gaps between teeth, overbite, crossbite, and underbite.

How Does Invisalign Work?

Invisalign teeth aligners offer an excellent solution for straightening teeth discreetly, utilising a series of custom-made, nearly invisible aligners. These aligners gently apply pressure to specific teeth. This helps to gradually shift them to their desired positions without the need for wires or fixed brackets.

During the treatment process, each aligner is worn for one to two weeks before being replaced by the next in the series. This sequential progression continues until the teeth have achieved their final alignment. By following this procedure, you can attain a renewed smile, significantly enhancing your self-assurance.

For the treatment to be effective, it is essential to wear the clear aligners for a minimum of 22 hours per day. However, you can conveniently remove them for activities such as brushing, flossing, eating, and drinking.

How Long Does Invisalign Take?

Week 1-2:

During the first week or two, you'll need to adjust to the feeling of wearing the aligners in your mouth. They may feel slightly uncomfortable or tight initially, but this should subside as you get used to them.

Month 1-2:

After wearing the aligners for a few weeks, you may start noticing some subtle changes in the position of your teeth. This can include minor shifts or rotations as the aligners begin to exert gentle pressure on your teeth.

Month 2-4:

By this time, you may start seeing more noticeable improvements in the alignment of your teeth. Gaps between teeth may begin to close, and teeth that were previously crooked or misaligned may start to straighten out. These changes can vary depending on the complexity of your case.

Month 4-6:

As you continue wearing your Invisalign aligners, you'll likely observe significant improvements in the appearance of your smile. Teeth that were once crowded may become more evenly spaced, resulting in a more harmonious and aesthetically pleasing smile. If you had bite issues such as overbite or underbite, you may see your bite alignment gradually improve.

Month 6 and beyond:

Towards the later stages of your Invisalign treatment, you'll be nearing the completion of your journey. At this point, your teeth should be significantly straighter and better aligned. Your dentist or orthodontist may make minor adjustments to the aligners or provide additional aligners for better results.

Frequently Asked Questions about Invisalign

1. What are the benefits of Invisalign clear braces over traditional braces?

Answer: Invisalign offers several benefits over traditional braces, including:

  • Aesthetic Appeal: The aligners are clear and nearly invisible.
  • Comfort: They are made of smooth plastic, reducing the likelihood of irritation.
  • Convenience: They can be removed for eating, brushing, and flossing.
  • Predictability: The treatment plan is mapped out digitally, providing a clear timeline of results.
2. Is Invisalign suitable for everyone?

Answer: Invisalign is suitable for most teens and adults who want to straighten their teeth. However, it may not be the best option for severe orthodontic cases. A consultation with our dentist can determine if Invisalign is right for you.

3. Does insurance cover Invisalign treatment?

Answer: Many dental insurance plans cover Invisalign just like they would other orthodontic treatments such as braces. We recommend checking with your insurance provider to understand your coverage and benefits.

4. Will Invisalign affect my speech?

Answer: You may experience a slight lisp for a few days as you get used to wearing Invisalign aligners. However, most patients find that their speech returns to normal quickly.

5. How many hours per day do I need to wear my Invisalign aligners?

Answer: For the best results, you should wear your Invisalign clear aligners for 22 hours a day, removing them only for eating, drinking (anything other than water), brushing, and flossing.

6. Can I eat and drink with my Invisalign aligners in?

Answer: You should remove your Invisalign aligners when eating or drinking anything other than water to avoid staining and damaging them. Always brush and floss your teeth before putting your clear aligners back in to maintain good oral hygiene.

7. How do I clean my Invisalign aligners?

Answer: Clean your Invisalign aligners by rinsing them with cold water and using a soft toothbrush to gently scrub away any debris. Avoid using hot water as it can warp the plastic. Special Invisalign cleaning kits are also available for thorough cleaning.

8. How often do I need to visit the dentist during my Invisalign treatment?

Answer: You will need to visit our clinic approximately every 6 to 8 weeks so we can monitor your progress and provide you with your next set of clear aligners.

9. What are attachments in Invisalign treatment and why do I need them?

Answer: Attachments are small, tooth-coloured bumps made of dental composite that are temporarily bonded to your teeth. Some movements, such as rotations or extrusions, may be difficult to achieve with aligners alone. Attachments provide additional grip for the Invisalign aligners, helping them apply the necessary force to move your teeth more effectively.

10. Will attachments be visible?

Answer: Attachments are made from a tooth-coloured material that blends in with your teeth, making them less noticeable. However, they can be slightly visible, especially if you look closely.

11. How are attachments applied and removed?

Answer: Attachments are applied using a simple procedure where the dental composite is bonded to the surface of your teeth. They are removed at the end of the Invisalign treatment by your dentist, using a process that does not damage your teeth.

12. How long will I need to have attachments on my teeth?

Answer: The duration for which you will need attachments varies depending on your specific treatment plan. Your dentist will provide you with a timeline and let you know when the attachments will be removed.

13. What should I do if an attachment falls off?

Answer: If an attachment falls off, contact your dentist as soon as possible to have it reattached. Continuing your treatment without the attachment can affect the effectiveness of your aligners.

14. How do I clean my teeth with attachments?

Answer: Cleaning your teeth with attachments is similar to your regular oral hygiene routine. Brush and floss your teeth as usual, ensuring you clean around the attachments thoroughly to prevent plaque buildup.

15. What is IPR (Interproximal Reduction)?

Answer: Interproximal Reduction (IPR) is a dental procedure used during orthodontic treatments to create space between teeth. This involves gently polishing the sides of the teeth to remove a small amount of enamel, allowing teeth to move more freely and align properly.

16. Is IPR safe?

Answer: Yes, IPR is a safe and common procedure. Only a minimal amount of enamel is removed, and the process is carefully controlled to avoid any damage to the teeth.

17. Does IPR hurt?

Answer: IPR is generally painless. You might feel some pressure or vibration during the procedure, but it is not usually uncomfortable. Anaesthesia is not typically required.

18. What happens after Invisalign treatment?

Answer: After completing your Invisalign treatment, you will need to wear retainers to maintain your new smile. Retainers help prevent your teeth from gradually shifting back to their original position.

19. What are Invisalign additional aligners?

Answer: Invisalign additional aligners, also known as refinement aligners, are extra sets of aligners provided to patients who require further adjustments after the initial course of treatment. Despite the precision of the initial treatment plan, teeth might not move as expected, or additional movements might be needed to achieve the desired outcome. These refinement aligners help fine-tune the positioning of the teeth to ensure optimal results.
