At Fletcher Dental Care, we offer Invisalign, the world’s leading clear aligner system. Invisalign has transformed millions of smiles across the globe with its innovative, discreet, and highly effective orthodontic treatment. With over two decades of experience and development, Invisalign has helped approximately 14 million people, including over 4 million teens, straighten their teeth and achieve a confident smile. Whether you have mild misalignment or more complex dental concerns, Invisalign can be the ideal solution for you.

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that uses a series of custom-made, nearly invisible aligners to gradually move your teeth into their proper position. These aligners are made from a patented, flexible plastic material that is designed to fit snugly over your teeth, providing a gentle and comfortable fit. Invisalign can treat a variety of issues, including crowded teeth, gaps between teeth, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. The clear aligners are an excellent alternative to traditional metal braces, offering a more aesthetic option for straightening teeth without the discomfort and visibility of metal brackets and wires.

How Invisalign Works The Process

Initial Consultation

Your journey with Invisalign begins with a comprehensive consultation at Fletcher Dental Care. During this appointment, we’ll perform a thorough evaluation of your teeth using advanced 3D imaging technology, such as digital impressions or scans. This allows us to create a highly accurate, customised treatment plan tailored specifically for you.

Customised Aligners

Based on your treatment plan, a series of clear aligners will be custom-made just for you. Each set of aligners is designed to move your teeth incrementally toward their final, ideal positions. The aligners are virtually invisible, so most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them. You’ll wear each set for about 1-2 weeks before switching to the next set in the series

Wearing Your Aligners

Invisalign aligners should be worn for 20-22 hours per day to achieve optimal results. You can easily remove them to eat, drink, brush, and floss, which makes maintaining oral hygiene much simpler than with traditional braces. By wearing your aligners consistently, you’ll experience steady progress as your teeth gradually shift into alignment.

Regular Check-ups

Throughout your treatment, we’ll schedule periodic check-ups to monitor your progress and ensure that your teeth are moving as planned. These visits are typically shorter and less frequent than traditional braces adjustments, giving you more flexibility and convenience.

Completion of Treatment & Retainers

Once you complete your series of aligners and your teeth have moved into their desired positions, you’ll be provided with a set of retainers to help maintain your new smile. Retainers are crucial in preventing your teeth from shifting back over time, and our team will guide you on how and when to wear them to keep your results long-lasting.

Benefits of Invisalign
