At Oxshott Dental, we believe everyone deserves a confident smile. That’s why we offer Invisalign – an orthodontic treatment that transforms smiles invisibly. Say goodbye to traditional metal braces and hello to a more comfortable, discreet way to straighten your teeth.
How Invisalign Works
Comprehensive Consultation and Assessment
Transforming your smile begins with a comprehensive consultation at Oxshott Dental. Our experienced dentists conduct a thorough examination, which includes:
- Digital Scans: Advanced 3D scans of your teeth.
- Photographs: A series of 21 detailed images capturing various angles.
- X-Rays: Up to 10 X-rays to assess the roots and alignment of your teeth.
This assessment allows us to create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.
Customised Treatment Plan with ClinCheck®
Using the data collected, we send your scans and photographs to Invisalign. They use ClinCheck® software to map out the precise movements of your teeth throughout the treatment. This digital roadmap provides:
- Visualisation: A 3D animation showing how your teeth will shift over time.
- Duration Estimation: An accurate timeline, often ranging from 6 to 9 months.
- Aligner Sequence: The number of aligners you’ll need, typically changing them every 1-2 weeks.
The Aligners
Invisalign aligners are custom-made using SmartTrack® material, a comfortable and flexible thermoplastic. Key features include:
- Near-Invisibility: Aligners are clear and fit snugly over your teeth, making them virtually unnoticeable.
- Removable: You can easily take them out when eating or brushing, allowing you to maintain proper oral hygiene without restrictions.
- Comfortable Fit: Trimmed to your exact gum line for comfort.
Treatment Progression
Throughout your treatment, you’ll have short, non-invasive visits to Oxshott Dental every 6 to 8 weeks. During these appointments, we’ll:
- Monitor Progress: Ensure your teeth are moving as planned.
- Provide Next Aligners: Give you the next sets of aligners to take home.
- Address Concerns: Answer any questions and make necessary adjustments.
Benefits of Invisalign
Discreet Appearance
One of the most significant advantages of Invisalign is its near-invisible appearance. Unlike traditional braces, there are no metal brackets or wires. This feature is particularly appealing for adults and teens who prefer a subtle solution.
Comfort and Convenience
- No Dietary Restrictions: Since the aligners are removable, you can enjoy all your favourite foods without concern.
- Easy Maintenance: Simply remove the aligners to brush and floss normally, promoting better oral hygiene.
- Less Painful: The gentle, gradual movement reduces discomfort compared to traditional braces.
Precision and Predictability
Invisalign’s advanced technology allows for precise control over tooth movements. The customised treatment plan makes sure you get efficient and accurate results, giving you confidence in the outcome.
Fewer Dental Visits
With Invisalign, you’ll have fewer appointments compared to traditional orthodontic treatments. This convenience fits into busy lifestyles, saving you time without compromising care.
Suitable for Various Cases
Invisalign effectively treats a range of orthodontic issues, including:
- Crowded Teeth
- Gaps Between Teeth
- Overbite, Underbite, and Crossbite
- Relapse After Traditional Braces
While not every case is suitable, Dr Brian Cullen and his team at Oxshott Dental will determine if Invisalign is the right option for you during your consultation.
Support and Aftercare
Retainers for Lasting Results
At the end of your treatment, Invisalign provides three sets of Vivera® retainers to maintain your new smile. For added assurance, we offer:
- Fixed Retainers: A small wire placed behind your teeth to keep them in position.
- Continued Support: Follow-up visits to monitor your progress and address any concerns.
