Benefits Of Invisalign
Invisalign is the world leader when it comes to clear braces (clear aligners)
We provide Invisalign treatment from our Darwen practice, Lanashire. These clear aligners are used to gradually reposition crooked teeth by moving them back into place through gentle pressure applied at regular intervals. Learn more about our Invisalign treatment Lancashire.
Some people who use traditional dental braces feel embarrassed by their appearance and may occasionally experience some mild discomfort when using them for extended periods of time.
The irony is that people usually want their teeth straightened because they already feel self-conscious about their teeth BEFORE having treatment to fix them.
Invisible braces can be used for straightening teeth without having visible metal wires attached to them. You can get a huge improvement from wearing Invisalign® braces, generating the feeling of increased self-confidence within just a few short months. Clear aligners are almost completely invisible so they’re less noticeable than conventional braces used for orthodontic treatment.
FAQ’s
How much does Invisalign treatment cost?
Many people who consider Invisalign treatment wonder if they’ll be able to afford it. Depending on the severity of your tooth alignment problem, the length of time needed for the treatment, and what your end goal is, the costs may vary from £2,000-£6,000. The exact price of your personal Invisalign treatment plan will be determined by one of our specialist dentists, based on your specific needs and your desired end result.
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
Depending on the severity of the patient’s condition, the length of treatment may vary from one month up to two years. We’ll give you a clear picture of what your smile will look like and how long treatment will take during your FREE Assessment.
Can I eat or drink with my clear aligners still on my teeth?
Do not eat or drink anything other than water when you are wearing your clear aligners. Remove them before all meals and rinse your mouth thoroughly before placing the trays back into your mouth.
How many hours per day do alignment trays need to be worn?
You should wear them for about 22 hours a day, removing them for eating, drinking and oral hygiene only.
How the Invisalign process works
These braces work by putting pressure on the specific teeth at different times, moving them slightly to their desired position. Every aligner needs to be worn for at 1-2 weeks before being replaced by the next one in the sequence until the alignment reaches its final position.
With Invisalign treatment, you can achieve a beautiful smile and improve your self-esteem at the same time. During the treatment period, as your orthodontist, we will check up on your progress regularly through regular appointments at our practice in Darwen, Lancashire.
Is there an age limit for Invisalign?
Initially intended for adults who needed braces, Invisalign has since been adapted for children too. There is no upper age limit to Invisalign.
