What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is the world’s most advanced clear teeth aligning system. These custom-made removable aligners do not use brackets or wires. The unique flexible SmartTrack material is laser-trimmed to the gum line for greater comfort. A series of clear aligners are used in the treatment process to gradually straighten teeth, from simple fixes to complex shifts.
Why is Invisalign a popular option compared to regular braces?
Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign is virtually transparent. It means others cannot spot your ongoing orthodontic treatment. Most children and adults feel self-conscious when wearing metal braces, which can be highly noticeable. The flexibility to remove the aligners when cleaning teeth, eating, or when necessary is a benefit regular braces do not offer.

Benefits of Invisalign
- The name hints at its biggest benefit. The invisible quality of the aligners makes them undetectable, making your treatment process discreet.
- The Invisalign treatment is non-restrictive. You can choose the 20-22 hours you have to wear the aligners. They can be easily removed when necessary.
- Maintaining dental hygiene is not complicated. You have to remove the aligner trays to clean your teeth. There’s no need to carefully brush around wires or glued brackets.
- Made with smooth plastic to fit snugly against the teeth and gumline, Invisalign is more comfortable to wear. There are no obtrusive metal brackets, wires poking your cheeks and soft tissue, and no painful wire tightening.
- It is especially beneficial to adults who do not want to wear braces that draw attention.
- There are no food and drink restrictions that come with metal braces. And you don’t have to worry about breaking brackets and food getting stuck in the braces when eating.
What are Invisalign aligners made of?
Invisalign aligners are made of medical-grade, high molecular weight thermoplastic polymers. The patented SmartTrack material offers a better fit and comfort and more predictable, controlled tooth movements. They are custom-trimmed based on your gum line.
What are the dental concerns that can be corrected through Invisalign?
Invisalign can correct a range of orthodontic issues in children and adults. Treatment time and requirements can vary depending on the severity or combination of the issues.
- Crowded Teeth
- Crossbite
- Gap Teeth
- Misaligned Teeth
- Open bite
- Overbite
- Underbite
Is Invisalign the right choice for my smile makeover?
Invisalign is capable of improving your smile from simple straightening to bigger fixes. However, you need to consult an Invisalign-trained dentist to understand the nature of your malocclusion or orthodontic issues and determine the most effective treatment suitable. You might need more than one dental treatment or, in extremely complex cases, fixed braces.
Invisalign at Mouth Dental
During the initial Invisalign consultation, we evaluate your smile to map out a precise, customised digital treatment plan with a 3D digital scan using iTero Element Scanner. It reveals the step-by-step transformation of your smile. Once you approve your smile-correction plan, we send the digital scans to Invisalign technicians, who will create your clear aligners. When your first set of clear aligners is ready, we will notify you. Our consultants will guide you through the process of wearing them. Every 1 to 2 weeks, you will receive a new set of aligners to fit your newly-aligned teeth.
If you need root canal treatment or teeth whitening, we perform these treatments before you start wearing your Invisalign trays.
How long do the results last?
The results are designed to last a lifetime. Dentists recommend wearing retainers after the completion of an orthodontic treatment to prevent teeth from gradually shifting back to their initial position. We look at each case to determine whether you need retainers to maintain your brand-new perfect smile.

Aftercare – How to take care of your teeth and aligners
Straight teeth give you a confident, beautiful smile. However, to protect the beauty of your smile, you should maintain healthy teeth and gums. That means brushing and flossing without failing. Use fluoride toothpaste for brushing your teeth twice a day. If your teeth are cavity-prone, use a fluoride mouthwash after brushing.
Regular dental checkups and cleaning ensure problems are spotted early and your teeth remain white without discolouration. Regular visits to your dentist enable your doctor to evaluate the condition of your retainers if you are wearing any.
Eat a balanced diet to get the nutrition your teeth and gums need to remain healthy. Cut down on sugar and starch, the biggest culprits of tooth decay.
Wear a mouthguard when playing energised sports, especially contact sports, to prevent dental trauma during accidents.

Invisalign treatments at Mouth Dental start from £2,095. 15 minutes of consultation with the dentist is provided free of charge.

Frequently asked questions
How does Invisalign work?
Invisalign aligners gently move your teeth by applying controlled pressure to a specific area over a determined period of time. Each set of trays is designed to move teeth into a particular position. Once the teeth move, the aligners become redundant, and you move on to the next set.
Is Invisalign right for me?
Yes! Invisalign is for both adults and teens looking to correct teeth alignment issues. It can fix nearly all common teeth straightening and bite issues, from simple to complex, discreetly and comfortably.
How long does Invisalign take?
Depending on the complexity, it can take anywhere from 6 months to 18 months. Most people feel a difference after 3 months, and results become noticeable after 6 months. Wear-time and case complexity are determined by your dentist.
How long should I wear Invisalign in a day?
For optimum results, you must wear the aligners for 20-22 hours a day, except when you are brushing your teeth or eating.
Will Invisalign affect my speech?
No, it is very unlikely. Invisalign clear braces are made from thin, flexible, and smooth plastic that does not take up much space in your mouth.
What happens if I lose a tray?
If you lose one or both trays, get in touch with us promptly. Meanwhile, switch back to your previous trays if they are not causing discomfort. We will help you move on to your next set or decide whether you can wear your previous trays.
Can I get Invisalign on the NHS?
HNS does not provide Invisalign. Dental braces available on a set fee band within the NHS treatment portfolio are traditional metal braces.
Can I smoke while wearing Invisalign?
While it is possible to smoke, please be aware that it can stain the clear plastic. Dentists recommend not smoking during the treatment period.
Can I chew gum wearing Invisalign?
We advise you not to as it can damage the precision construction of the plastic.
Is there anything I should not eat wearing Invisalign?
You should remove your aligner to eat and drink.
Can I wear Invisalign if I have veneers, dental implants, crowns, and bridges?
While it is possible, it is best to talk to your orthodontist about these procedures before going ahead with Invisalign.
