Question 1

Will Invisalign affect my speech?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 2

Are the aligners comfortable?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 3

What are Invisalign aligners made of?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 4

What should I do if I lose an aligner?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 5

How much does Invisalign cost?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 6

How long does Invisalign treatment take?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 7

Will I need to wear retainers after my treatment?

Accepted Answer

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.
