If the thought of wearing metal braces puts you off having orthodontic treatment to straighten your teeth then Invisalign invisible braces may be the treatment for you. Invisalign utilises a series of clear plastic aligners that slowly move your teeth over time to their desired position.

The benefits of Invisalign over traditional braces are that they are very discrete so nobody will notice you are having treatment and you can remove them so that they do not interfere with eating or your oral hygiene.

White guide to Invisalign invisible braces in southampton

Stage 1 - Your Free Consultationn
During your first visit for Invisalign treatment in southamton we will address all your dental needs and concerns and assess your suitability for treatment with Invisalign. This initial Invisalign consultation is free of charge. If you decide to go ahead with treatment we will take bite impressions of your teeth, and photographs which we will send directly to Invisalign in the States along with a set of precise instructions.

Stage 2: Your clear aligners are made by Invisalign and sent from our Southampton Invisalign clinic
Invisalign technology uses advanced 3-D computer imaging to transform the bite impressions we send them into a custom-made series of clear and removable aligners. This is overseen and adjusted by specialist orthodontists at Invisalign. There may be as many as 48 in the series or as few as 12, depending on your individual treatment plan.

Stage 3: You receive your new aligners
During your next visit to our dedicated Invisalign clinic in Hamble Southamton, you will receive your first set aligners. Each set of aligners should be worn for 2 weeks. We will usually give you a few additional sets for you to wear before you return for your progress visit.

Stage 4: You wear your aligners
You'll wear each set of aligners day and night, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. You will change your aligners every two weeks as your teeth gradually move. Total treatment time averages 6-12 months, but will vary from case to case. We will require you to visit us every 6 weeks or so to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.

Stage 5: You've finished treatment
Congratulations! When you're finished wearing each aligner in the series, your treatment will be complete and you will have the perfectly aligned beautiful smile you've always wanted.
