Invisalign Lite, i7 and NTI Splints

The benefits of a well-aligned smile go a long way in helping you to maintain good oral health and hygiene and to feel confident inside.

Today, fixed metal braces are no longer the sole way you can seek to correct mild to moderate orthodontic problems like crowding, an unhealthy bite and spacing.

In 23 years, nearly 10 million people have opted for and benefitted from this method of treatment, which addresses a range of orthodontic ailments from mild to severe. Treatment with Invisalign® varies from patient to patient but generally tends to be between 12-18 months.

Why Invisalign®?

There is a myriad of reasons to choose Invisalign® to straighten your teeth. These include:

  • Discreet design: virtually invisible so you can smile and socialise in confidence.
  • Removable: treatment with Invisalign™ gives you the freedom to remove the aligners to eat, drink, brush and floss as usual.
  • Custom made and close fitting: thanks to the bespoke nature of the aligners, your speech won’t be affected
  • Smooth and a snug fit: discomfort and damage to gums and surrounding tissue that can be caused by some fixed brace brackets, or loose or broken bracket wires, is eliminated.
  • Excellent treatment planning: thanks to precision digital planning, treatment time is less than in the case of certain traditional teeth straightening methods.
  • Time-saving: on average, you only need to make a short visit to us every 6-8 weeks to collect each series of aligners. Patients are simply required to change their aligners every 2 weeks, in the comfort of their own homes.
  • Less invasive choice of appliance: the aligners are removable, clear, smooth and flexible. No issues are commonly caused by some bracket and wire brace options.
  • Enjoy the benefits of your improving smile at every stage: as Invisalign® aligners are clear and virtually invisible, people will only notice your improving smile and not your braces.

How does Invisalign work?

The first step of any Invisalign journey is a consultation appointment, during which we can collate the necessary diagnostic information that will allow us to proceed. Thanks to state-of-the-art software, we can even give you a prospective idea of how your teeth will look at the end of treatment before you even begin.

Invisalign involves wearing a set of bespoke, transparent and comfortable aligners that are changed every 2 weeks by you, at home – their design can be likened to that of a gum shield. Unlike fixed metal braces, the aligners do not incorporate any brackets or wires as part of their design. Over a period of months, the aligners gradually and gently guide your teeth into the desired position, yielding a healthier smile and a well-aligned smile. By encouraging the movement of your teeth, you’ll also find your chin and lips fall into a more harmonious and symmetrical position. The discreet nature of treatment and flexibility it offers patients have made Invisalign globally popular, particularly with adult patients who may have otherwise shied away from getting braces.

Invisalign is a modern and revolutionary approach to a smile makeover. It’s an affordable, non-invasive, and painless dental appliance used to straighten teeth. Invisalign consists of custom-made aligners made of smooth, sturdy, invisible plastic that fits into your teeth like a glove and isn’t a pain to wear.

Invisalign Lite Weybridge

If you have slightly crooked teeth but was a more discreet look than traditional braces, you may want to consider Invisalign braces, a cosmetic dentistry treatment. These aligners gently and gradually move misaligned teeth back into place, based on the exact movements your dentist plans out for you.

Invisalign I7

Unlike traditional braces, there are no annoying metal brackets to attach and no wires to tighten. It’s as easy as popping in a set of aligners into your teeth every two weeks until your treatment is complete. Invisalign won’t interfere with the normal functions of your teeth and mouth. And nobody would even know you’re wearing one.

NTI Splints

For those with problems like bruxism, our highly trained team recommends NTI splints Weybridge to reduce night-time tooth clenching and grinding which may misalign teeth and cause problems like headaches and migraines.
