Clear Braces – Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign (Invisible Braces) is an innovative method of straightening teeth, using breakthrough technology that lets you get the smile you always wanted without bands, brackets or wires. Results, costs, and treatment times are about the same as fixed braces – so the advantages are clear!
A table comparing Invisalign braces with other treatments is provided here.
An Invisalign aligner
What is it?
By using a series of clear removable aligners, Invisalign straightens your teeth. Change them every 2 weeks, your teeth will move little by little, week by week, until they have moved to the final position Dr Kerr has prescribed. Comfortable to wear, our aligners are also removable so you can eat, drink, brush, and floss as usual.
Treatment time
Invisalign usually takes from 6 to 24 months. The average time is 12 months. You will see Dr Kerr every few weeks for a check-up and adjustments. At these visits you will be given additional aligners to continue your treatment.
Invisible and comfortable
Invisalign is an invisible solution. So you won’t draw undue attention to your mouth while in treatment. In fact, virtually no one will know you’re wearing them unless you tell them!
Over one million people have already improved their smiles with Invisalign. Maybe it’s time you were one of them. Call our practice on (07) 3366-0022.
Will it work for me?
Although some people are told that Invisalign will not work or is not suitable for them, in most cases this is not true. Invisalign is an appliance that straightens teeth, and will work, provided the aligners are worn 20 – 22 hours a day.
There is a very small minority of patients who would be better with fixed braces.
