Will Invisalign affect my speech?

You may find it takes a few days to get used to the aligners and may have a slight lisp at first, but you should be talking clearly and confidently before long.

Are the aligners comfortable?

Yes, Invisalign aligners have been designed with comfort in mind, enabling you to wear them for up to 22 hours a day, easily. They fit snugly over the teeth and have no metal brackets or wires to irritate the skin.

What are Invisalign aligners made of?

The Invisalign aligners are made from a strong medical-grade thermoplastic material, which has been uniquely developed for the Invisalign system.

What should I do if I lose an aligner?

If you lose one of your aligners, please contact us as soon as possible for further advice. In the meantime, you can wear an aligner from your previous set to prevent your teeth from moving too far out of line. We may also advise that you move straight onto your next set of aligners, depending on your case.

How much does Invisalign cost?

The cost of treatment depends on each individual case, with complex cases needing more aligners and therefore are more expensive. We can give you an exact treatment cost based on the examination and assessment we carry out during your initial consultation. We offer payment plans and finance options to help you spread the cost of treatment.

How long does Invisalign treatment take?

Treatment length varies from case to case, but most Invisalign treatments are completed in 9-18 months. Straightforward cases have a faster treatment time, while patients needing more complex straightening can expect to wear their aligners for longer. We can advise you of your expected treatment time after your initial consultation.

Will I need to wear retainers after my treatment?

Yes, you will need to wear retainers to keep your teeth in their new positions following your Invisalign treatment. Teeth have a habit of moving out of place, so you will need to wear retainers on a part-time basis (usually overnight) for as long as you wish your teeth to stay straight. You will be given fixed or removable retainers.

Anti-Wrinkle Injections & Dermal Fillers

Anti-wrinkle treatment

Rejuvenate your skin with anti-wrinkle injections

Ageing is a natural process, but it’s visible signs, like wrinkles around the eyes and mouth, can impact self-confidence. These wrinkles appear as our skin loses collagen and elastin, the key components responsible for its volume and elasticity. Fortunately, various treatments are available to address these concerns.

Anti-wrinkle injections are a popular choice for reducing the appearance of ageing and achieving a smoother, more youthful complexion. Anti-wrinkle injections work by temporarily paralysing the muscles responsible for forming wrinkles. This process helps smooth out existing fine lines and prevents the formation of new ones, particularly in areas prone to expression lines, such as the forehead, crow’s feet, and frown lines.

At our Augustus Dental, our clinicians offer anti-wrinkle injections and a range of other facial aesthetic treatments to combat wrinkles, whether they’re the dynamic lines that appear with expressions like laughing, frowning, or smiling or the static fine lines that are always present. We can help you find the right treatment to achieve your desired results.

What are the benefits of anti-wrinkle injections?

Non-invasive and minimal downtime: Unlike surgical procedures, anti-wrinkle injections are non-invasive, requiring no incisions or sutures. This makes them an attractive option for individuals seeking facial rejuvenation without the need for an extensive recovery period. You can resume your daily activities almost immediately after the treatment.

Natural-looking results: One of the key advantages of anti-wrinkle injections is their ability to deliver natural-looking results. Our skilled practitioner can precisely target specific muscles, ensuring that your facial expressions remain authentic while minimising the appearance of wrinkles.

Preventive measures: Anti-wrinkle injections can also serve as a preventive measure against the formation of deep-set wrinkles. By addressing fine lines early on, you can slow down the ageing process and maintain a more youthful complexion over time.

Boosted confidence and wellbeing: Achieving a more youthful and refreshed appearance can have a positive impact on your self-esteem and confidence. Feeling good about one’s physical appearance often translates to improved overall psychological wellbeing.

Versatility in treatment areas: Anti-wrinkle injections can be applied to various facial areas, addressing specific concerns tailored to you. Whether targeting forehead lines, crow’s feet, or frown lines, the injections offer a customisable approach to facial aesthetics.
