Considering Invisalign to improve your smile? With clear, removable aligners and predictable results, it’s one of the most advanced alternatives to traditional braces. To help you make an informed decision, we’ve outlined six key questions every patient should ask before starting treatment.
At Toothcare Dental, we use an iTero™ scanner to take a rapid, precise 3D scan of your teeth. From that model, we map out a digital treatment plan, then produce a series of custom aligners. Each aligner is worn for one to two weeks and gently nudges your teeth toward the desired position. You’ll come in for periodic checkups so we can monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments.
Invisalign handles a range of common alignment concerns:
While severe orthodontic cases might need traditional braces, Invisalign is effective for many mild to moderate misalignment challenges.
One of its biggest perks is discretion. The aligners are made from clear, medical-grade plastic that fits snugly over your teeth, making them subtly invisible in everyday use. Because they’re removable, you can take them out for meals, photos, or special occasions – giving you more flexibility than fixed braces.
On average, many patients complete their treatment in around six months. Some may notice visible improvements within three months. That said, each case is unique – mild adjustments may finish more quickly, while more complex corrections might take longer. At your first appointment, we’ll show you a personalised timeline and preview so you know what to expect.
Yes. Success depends on consistency: aligners should be worn 20 to 22 hours per day. You can remove them for eating, brushing, or flossing, but the more reliably you wear them, the more efficient and predictable your results will be.
