Invisalign® Clear Aligners at Smart Choice Dental

Perhaps you’re ready to align your teeth, but you don’t like the look of traditional metal braces. Invisalign Clear Aligners offer a discreet solution to help you achieve the smile you’ve always desired. Designed for comfort and convenience, these aligners work to gradually shift your teeth into alignment without the wires and brackets of traditional braces.

How Invisalign Aligners Work

Invisalign aligners are custom-made using advanced 3D imaging technology to fit your teeth perfectly. Your dentist creates a personalised plan that maps out each stage of the process. Every 1-2 weeks, you’ll switch to a new set of trays that gently move your teeth closer to their final position. It’s that simple!

Benefits of Clear Aligners

While traditional braces can effectively straighten your teeth, here are some of the top reasons to consider this clear aligner system:

Discreet Appearance: Because the trays are virtually invisible, you can straighten your teeth without drawing attention.
Removable for Convenience: With Invisalign, you can take the aligners out for meals or brushing, so there’s no need to change your diet or hygiene routine.
Comfortable Fit: Smooth plastic aligners minimise irritation to your mouth compared to traditional braces.

What to Expect During Treatment

Initial Consultation: The first step is a visit to discuss your goals and determine if aligners are the right fit for you.

Custom Plan Creation: Using digital scans, your dentist will create a precise treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Wearing Aligners: You’ll receive a series of trays to wear for 20-22 hours daily, swapping to a new set every few weeks.

Progress Monitoring: Regular checkups, typically every 6-8 weeks, ensure your treatment stays on track.

Completion: Once your teeth are beautifully aligned, we’ll provide retainers to help you maintain your results.

To enhance your newly straightened smile, consider our professional teeth whitening service to brighten your pearly whites.

Am I a Good Candidate?

Invisalign aligners are a great option for teens and adults with mild to moderate alignment issues, including gaps, overbites, underbites, and crooked teeth. While most people are candidates, younger children may not qualify due to ongoing dental development.
