You’ve probably heard horror stories about braces. There are even movies about them. Sure, some of them are overstated and probably mythical. Still, some people are concerned enough about braces that it keeps them from achieving the perfect smile. But that doesn’t have to be the case anymore. Thanks to technology, you can now realise your dream of having the perfect smile with Invisalign. No more constant irritation or bleeding gum, and most importantly, Invisalign is nearly invisible, so you can continue smiling.

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is something we’ve come to love at The Dentalist because it uses the same verbs we do. It’s fantastic, revolutionary, and challenges the traditions of orthodontics – the same things we do.

Invisalign is a fast new way to re-align crooked teeth, close gaps and cure over and underbites. It has the same function as conventional braces but without unsightly metal brackets. Invisalign is based on a series of clear plastic aligners which are less than one millimetre thick. The most exciting part about Invisalign for our patients is the fact that the aligners are removable and very discrete.

Why Invisalign is Better than Other Braces

Unlike other braces, Invisalign has no brackets or wires. It is generally more comfortable less intrusive, and a more appealing orthodontic treatment.

Another reason you should consider Invisalign over other braces is that our Invisalign orthodontics will mould the aligners to suit your teeth and how you want them to look.

Conventional braces must be regularly tightened and screwed in again because they lose shape and tension every few weeks. With Invisalign, you can cut back on the visits to your dentist because the aligners maintain the right amount of pressure without the need for tightening.

If you’ve been thinking about teeth straightening but worried about braces, you no longer have to.

Invisalign can transform your smile discretely and comfortably. The aligners are virtually invisible, and they’re removable. They don’t get in your way when you want to take down a steak.

How it Works

You can get your Invisalign installed at The Dentalist. We have an amazing team of orthodontists who will work with you as you get your smile straightened up. All you have to do is follow a few quick steps.

Consultation

First, we’ll set up an initial free consultation. We discuss your goals and check if Invisalign fits you well. One of our teeth straightening gurus will be part of the team, so you can rest assured your smile will be in capable hands.

Digital impressions

Once we’re sure Invisalign is perfect for you, we will take some scans and digital impressions to create a 3D visualisation of your smile. You will see how great your new smile will look after the treatment, and we will use the same model to custom-fit the aligners for you.

Once you start wearing the aligners, they force the teeth to move closer to their ideal position until their final placement.

We’ll provide you with an estimated timeline of how long you will wear the aligners to help you plan accordingly.

Because of how thin and clear the aligners are, you can easily get away with wearing them during the day without anyone noticing, and because they’re a custom fit, they don’t get in your way as often as conventional braces.

Why Go For Invisalign in Loughborough

Most people aren’t fond of metal brackets. They do an excellent job of aligning and straightening your smile. Invisalign offers a better option with more benefits like;

More comfortable

No more cuts and scratches on your cheeks with Invisalign. The aligners have no sharp edges and are custom-made for you, so they don’t dig and cut into your lips and cheeks. They have smooth edges made of high-quality resin, so no jagged metal is digging into your mouth.

Better dental hygiene

You must maintain good dental hygiene even as you work on getting a better and straighter smile. With braces, that means more time in front of your mirror with your floss, trying to fish out debris and plaque between the teeth and around and inside the braces.

With Invisalign, you can remove the aligners and continue your normal dental routine without using special equipment or additional time. You can also brush the inside and outside of the aligner relatively easily.
