What is Invisalign used to treat?

Invisalign is a highly effective treatment for a variety of tooth positioning ailments, including crowded teeth, crossbites, overbites, underbites and gapped teeth. Invisalign is a great option for people who want to realign their teeth without having to wear a visible or fixed appliance. It’s a discreet, comfortable, and effective treatment that can help you achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.

How Invisalign works

Invisalign Clapham works by using a series of clear aligners to gradually move your teeth into their desired position. Each aligner is worn for two weeks and then it’s replaced with a new aligner that’s slightly different. This process continues until your teeth are in the desired position. The aligners are made from a clear, flexible material that’s comfortable to wear. They’re also removable, so you can take them out to eat, brush your teeth, and floss.

Advantages of Invisalign

There are many advantages to choosing Invisalign and this is why many of our patients opt for the treatment. The aligners are virtually invisible, so you can wear them without having to worry about other people staring at your mouth. Invisalign Clapham is suitable for teenagers and adults, so whether you need to head to school or the office, we’ve got you covered and nobody else should realise you’re having treatment. As you wear the aligners, they should be comfortable as they are made bespoke to fit your mouth. They are also made from a soft and flexible plastic material that shouldn’t irritate your mouth or gums. Another benefit of choosing Invisalign is the fact that the aligners are easy to care for and maintain. You can clean them with soap and water, and you don’t have to worry about them getting caught on food as you can take them out at mealtimes.

How to get Invisalign

If you’re interested in getting Invisalign, the first step is to schedule a consultation with our dentist here at Clapham South Dental Centre. During the consultation, our dentist will assess your teeth and determine if Invisalign is the right treatment for you. If it is, they will create a treatment plan and schedule your treatment. Invisalign treatment typically takes 12-18 months, but the length of time will vary depending on the severity of your misalignment. During treatment, you will need to wear your aligners for 22 hours per day. You will also need to come back to see us every 4-6 weeks for a check-up and to receive more of the aligners.

At the end of your treatment, you will have a beautiful, stunning smile that you can be proud of. It’s a discreet, comfortable, and effective treatment that can help you achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.
