Straighten Your Smile with Invisalign

Invisalign has grown in popularity over the last decade and is now a desired and highly effective solution for straightening adult and teen teeth. 

This innovative orthodontic treatment uses clear, custom-made aligners to gradually move squint or misaligned teeth into their desired position. Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign uses clear aligners to straighten teeth. Not only are these aligners fully removeable but they are virtually invisible when in the mouth, making them a popular choice for adult patients who want to straighten their teeth in a discreet and convenient fashion.  

If you are eager to improve the look of your smile without committing to traditional metal train-track braces, Invisalign is the perfect orthodontic solution for you. The clear aligner treatment is perfect for small to medium cases where patients need to straighten multiple squint or crooked teeth and close unwanted gaps.  

Although Invisalign is not suitable for everyone, it is a fantastic and highly effective tooth straightening that gives a level of comfort and convenience that is hard to match.

The benefits of Invisalign  

Invisalign treatment is a fantastic orthodontic solution for correcting alignment issues and forming a perfectly straight smile that will last for many years to come. The treatment offers a wealth of benefits that make it particularly appealing to adult patients who want a quick and discreet solution to straightening teeth.  

Some of the main benefits of Invisalign are:  

  • Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible. 
  • More comfortable than traditional braces. 
  • Highly effective and fast, with patients able to see results in as little as 6 months. 
  • No brackets or wires to irritate the cheeks and gums. 
  • Invisalign aligners are fully removable allowing patients to remove them when eating and brushing, or for important occasions such as business meetings or celebrations. 
  • No need to visit the dentist as frequently as with traditional braces – patients typically only need to come in every six to eight weeks to check your progress and receive new aligners!  

 

How does Invisalign work at Macaulay Dental Practice? 

Invisalign is convenient in every possible way, including its process. 

Invisalign treatment at Macaulay Dental Practice can be broken down into four easy-to-steps: 

Step 1: Initial Invisalign consultation  

The first step towards a straighter smile is to meet with one of our dentists to find out more about Invisalign treatment. Here you can have all your questions answered and see if you are a suitable patient for Invisalign based on your smile goals, present condition of your teeth, budget and requirements.   

Step 2: Have your custom aligners made 

If you decide Invisalign is right for you, we’ll take impressions of your teeth and mouth so we can then send away for your custom-made aligners which will fit comfortably in your mouth.  

Step 3: Start wearing your aligners 

Upon receiving your first set of aligners, your dentist will give you detailed instructions on how long they should be worn for each day and when to come back into the clinic to collect your next set of clear aligners.  

You will continue to progress through your custom sets of aligners as your teeth gradually move into their desired positions, leaving you with a perfectly straight smile at the end of the treatment.  

Step 4: Regular checks and aftercare  

Once you have completed your Invisalign treatment plan, your dentist will provide you with important aftercare instructions. You will also be given your custom retainer which should continue to be worn at night to prevent teeth from sliding back into their desired position.  

Overall, Invisalign treatment can take anywhere from 6 to 18 months to achieve the desired results. The timeframe for you will depend heavily on the starting position of your teeth and the type of Invisalign plan you choose.
