What are Invisaligns?
Invisalign is a brand of clear aligners used for straightening teeth. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable plastic trays to gradually move your teeth into the desired position. This makes them nearly invisible when worn and avoids the metal wires and brackets associated with braces.

Benefits of Invisalign
Invisalign treatment offers several key advantages. Firstly, since wires and brackets are not used, maintaining optimal oral hygiene is easy. Additionally, the aligners are removable, allowing you to eat whatever you wish without restrictions.
Moreover, the SmartTrack® material utilized in Invisalign is not only discreet but also smooth and significantly more comfortable compared to traditional braces. Unlike conventional metal braces, Invisalign aligners won’t rub against the inside of your cheeks and lips. Also, due to their snug fit to the teeth, they won’t cause irritation to the gums.
Removable trays
Invisalign applies gradual and comfortable pressure, minimizing discomfort and mouth sores.
Gentle pressure
Invisalign aligners are custom-made to fit snugly over your teeth, resulting in a more comfortable orthodontic experience without the irritation often associated with traditional braces.
Enhanced confidence
Smile brighter and wider with a straighter, more confident smile you'll love.
Improved oral health
Straightened teeth are easier to clean, potentially improving your overall oral health.
What to Expect When Considering Invisalign
Initial Consultation: Your first step involves scheduling an initial consultation with a dentist who provides Invisalign treatment. During this appointment, the dentist will assess your teeth and discuss your treatment goals.
Digital X-rays, Impressions, and Photographs: If you decide to proceed with Invisalign, the dentist will take digital X-rays, moulded impressions, and photographs of your teeth. These will be used to create a digital roadmap for your treatment.
Digital Treatment Plan: Using specialized software provided by Invisalign, your dentist will create a customized treatment plan for you. This plan will show how your teeth are expected to move and straighten over time with the help of the aligners.
Visualization of Progress: The software allows the dentist to predict how your teeth will appear at various stages of the treatment process. This means you can see a virtual representation of your smile’s transformation over weeks, months, and by the end of the treatment.
Conditions Treated with Invisalign, Post Treatment Care and Financing Options
Conditions Treated: Invisalign can address various orthodontic issues, including crowded teeth, gaps, overbites, underbites, and crossbites.
Post-Treatment Care: Once your treatment is complete, we provide guidance on how to maintain your newly aligned smile. This may involve wearing retainers to prevent teeth from shifting back.
Financing Options: If cost is a concern, inquire about our financing options. We offer not just Afterpay but also Denticare and National Dental Plan so you can afford to pay in easy instalments for implants, veneers, crowns or even extractions.
Compliance is key to achieving optimal results with invisalign. It’s essential to wear the aligners for the recommended amount of time each day and to follow your dentist’s instructions closely throughout the treatment process. Otherwise, you run the risk of not achieving the desired results.
While suitable for both teenagers and adults, Invisalign is especially popular with adults seeking subtle adjustments or correcting minor relapse after previous orthodontic treatment. During a consultation with Dr. Ashraf, we can assess your individual needs and determine if Invisalign is the perfect fit for you.

Whether Invisalign is worth it depends on individual preferences, treatment goals, and oral health needs. Many patients find the advantages of Invisalign, such as aesthetics and convenience, to outweigh any potential negatives. However, it’s essential to consult with a qualified orthodontist to determine if Invisalign is the right treatment option for you.
Invisalign can indirectly contribute to better overall health by improving oral hygiene and alignment, which can reduce the risk of issues such as tooth decay, gum disease, and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. Additionally, properly aligned teeth can improve bite function and make it easier to maintain a healthy diet. However, the direct impact of Invisalign on overall health may vary depending on individual factors.
