Invisalign

Invisalign is a relatively new teeth straightening technology that uses digital precision combined with completely clear braces. Invisalign is the most comfortable way to alter the alignment of your teeth and achieve the perfect smile.

How does it work?

Your Liverpool dentist will begin by creating a digital 3D image of your teeth by taking x-rays, impressions and photographs. Using this image, they will map out a unique treatment plan, predict the precise movements of your teeth over time, and calculate how to achieve the exact results you want. Your Invisalign dentist will then give you a series of custom-made aligners, which are changed every few weeks, to guide your teeth gradually into position.

Comfortable Treatment

Once new aligners have been worn for a short time, they become unnoticeable and very comfortable to wear. There is none of the painful tightening that comes with traditional braces and no sharp metal brackets or wires to irritate your mouth.

Removable Braces

The aligners used for the Invisalign treatment can be removed to allow you to continue with your usual oral care routine. This also means you can remove your aligner for short periods whenever you need to, so you can be sure to look your best at an important event or celebration.

Aesthetic Advantages

Invisalign aligners are completely clear braces so many patients report that their friends and family don’t even notice they’re having treatment. The goal of Invisalign is to give you the confidence boost of a perfect smile, so it makes sense to keep looking good throughout the treatment rather than suffering with unsightly traditional braces.

Better Hygiene

With traditional adult braces, patients often find it challenging to properly clean their teeth around the brackets and wires in their mouth. These difficulties can lead to plaque build up and eventually tooth decay. So while your teeth may be straighter, they could actually be damaged in the long run. With Invisalign, the tray can be removed to allow for brushing and flossing after every meal, keeping your teeth in great health.
