If you are looking for a discrete way to straighten your teeth, Invisalign® is the perfect option.
Invisalign® is a series of clear aligners which are worn for a minimum of 22 hours per day. The aligners are removed for eating, hot drinks and for oral hygiene. Each aligner is worn for 1 week and your dedicated compliance is essential for the system to work.
Firstly, we take a 3D scan of your teeth in their current position. A computerised programme is then created to show you exactly how your teeth will move during treatment. At this stage, we can make changes to the position of specific teeth and you will be involved in all the decisions. Once we are happy with the computer programme, Invisalign® generates the clear aligners which are then shipped from America. The above process takes between 2-4 weeks.
Once your aligners arrive, we will fit small tooth-coloured buttons to your teeth to help with specific movements. We may then polish between the teeth to allow correction. Every 4-6 weeks we will track your progress.
We offer all Invisalign® packages and a typical treatment time will range from 12 weeks to 9 months.
We offer free of charge Invisalign® consultations to give you an idea of suitability, time frame and cost.
If you require a full examination and hygiene appointments we would be more than happy to arrange this for you here at Alderley Edge Dental.
If you are interested in Invisalign® please do not hesitate to contact us via the enquiry form below, telephone or call in to discuss your options.
