“Few people can claim that their visits to the dentist
are enjoyable, but mine to you were. Thank you for
looking after my teeth so well…” – Patient.”
Orthodontic treatment is used to correct crooked, misaligned or over-crowded teeth to provide
a beautifully straight smile. It can also help to correct problems with the bite.
We offer a full range of orthodontic treatment for both adults and children, including virtually
invisible lingual braces and Invisalign™ aligners that radically reduce treatment time.
Your Invisalign™ Treatment has the following stages:
•
STEP 1: The Consultation:
On your first visit to discuss Invisalign™ treatment, we will thoroughly examine your
existing smile before discussing what you would like to achieve with your new smile.
Our Invisalign clinician will give you all the information you need to decide whether Invisalign
is the right course of action for you. If you choose to go ahead, we will send the scans or
impressions and photographs of your teeth to Invisalign’s US laboratories, along with a set of
instructions for production tailored uniquely to your mouth.
•
STEP 2: Aligner Production
Invisalign’s US laboratory team transforms the impressions and photographs into 3D images
used to make your unique aligners. The number of aligners needed varies with each patient
and can be anything from 12-50, depending on the complexity of treatment.
•
STEP 3: Your New Aligners Arrive
Once you receive your first aligners, you’ll need to wear them for around two weeks before
changing to your next set. We’ll provide one or two replacement sets so you can carry
on with treatment before your first follow-up appointment with us.
•
STEP 4: Your Treatment
Your aligners should be worn for around 20 hours every day and removed only when eating,
Drinking or brushing teeth. You’ll re-visit the clinic around every six weeks to check on
progress and receive your latest replacement aligner. Each new aligner brings your teeth a
little closer to their perfect position.
•
STEP 5: Smile - You’re All Done!
Treatment time varies from patient to patient and usually lasts 6-12 months. After wearing
each set of aligners in the treatment plan, your treatment is complete.
Congratulations – you can now smile in confidence knowing your teeth are beautifully aligned.
