Invisalign is a modern alternative to traditional fixed braces, helping to straighten teeth and create a great smile.
Dr. Gregory Fickert (Consultant Orthodontist) is our Diamond Certified Invisalign braces expert. Dr. Fickert will determine whether Invisalign is the right solution for you to achieve the perfect, straight smile.
Your orthodontist will determine your suitability for Invisalign and recommend potential treatment options.
Our iTero digital scanner will create a 3D model of your mouth which can design your ideal smile and showcase the stages of your treatment in realtime.
The scans will be sent off and used to create a series of custom plastic aligners. By wearing each set of aligners in order, your braces will gradually move your teeth towards the desired position.
A final consultation and included teeth whitening will reveal your new, perfect smile. Retainers are recommended to be worn to keep your smile straight.
Treatment times can be expected to last anywhere from 6 to 15 months. Each set of Invisalign clear aligners will last about 2 weeks.
Patients should try to wear their aligners for a minimum of 22 hours per day and only remove the aligners to eat, drink and clean.
Invisalign aligners are an effective solution for treating a large number of orthodontic problems, including minor teeth misalignment or more serious bite alignment issues (malocclusions). Your orthodontist will show you in detail how these problems will be tackled using the 3D software:
