Improve the health and appearance of your smile with Invisalign in Clapham

Invisalign Clapham is a highly popular method of teeth straightening carried out using transparent plastic aligners that are individually designed and manufactured for your teeth. Invisalign Clapham works using a sequence of these aligners that apply pressure to your teeth to gently push them into a neater formation. Invisalign Clapham can be used to improve the aesthetic appearance of your smile and it can also be used to improve your dental health by correcting minor or moderate misalignment issues of your teeth. Here at Clapham South Dental Centre we recommend Invisalign Clapham for protruding teeth, crooked teeth, wonky teeth, overlapping teeth and addressing the gaps between your teeth. invisalign-in-clapham

Straighten your teeth sooner rather than later

It is highly recommended that you address misalignment issues of the teeth as early in life as possible. This helps prevent dental complications from developing in the future. By undergoing months or even a couple of years of orthodontic treatment early on in life you can save yourself time and money later down the line. Misalignment issues of the teeth can cause tooth decay and gum disease. If this occurs later in life it can mean many hours in the dentist chair and having to spend a lot of money on restorative dental care. Rather, it is beneficial for you to straighten your teeth early on in life and enjoy a beautiful smile and good dental health for life.

Advances in digital dental technology

Invisalign aligners are designed using digital dental technology. You will need to undergo a three-dimensional scan of your mouth which will create a digital image of your teeth and gums. Our dentist will decide whether or not Invisalign is suitable for you. You will also need to consider whether you will be able to maintain your aligners effectively. Compliance is very important and statistics show that it is also an issue. The aligners need to be worn in your mouth for at least 22 hours of the day only to be taken out at mealtimes and for cleaning your teeth. If you are not able to comply with the procedure then this will lengthen the process and can affect the end results. Your dental requirements and your personal preferences will be taken into consideration when our dentist will put together an individually tailored treatment plan for you.

Short treatment time with lasting results

Depending on the extent of misalignment that needs to be addressed to straighten your teeth, Invisalign can take as little as 3 months or around 12 to 18 months for the process to be complete. During this time you can visit our dentist at regular intervals and we will make sure that the process is coming along successfully. We will examine your teeth and gums and make sure they remain clean and healthy. Once you reach the end of the process, visit us at Clapham South Dental Centre and find out about retaining your smile. We will let you know about Invisalign’s retainer system and with this you can maintain your smile for the rest of your life.
