The Invisalign cost has interest free payment plan from $25/week. Many find the Invisalign cost to be justifiable as this type of oral treatment will be able to help make them look and feel good in the process.
Invisalign treatment is suitable for teenagers and adults. Your qualified dentist will be able to tell you if Invisalign treatment is suitable. We must first examine your teeth to make sure there are no gums or dental problems.
Yes. Invisalign has corrected millions of smiles around the world and is well-documented to work predictably.
Each Invisalign aligner is made slightly straighter than the current position of the teeth so wearing it will move the teeth into a new position. When the aligners are worn in sequence, the teeth will progressively become straighter.
Advantages:
- The clear aligners are very discrete so patients can straighten their teeth without the look of braces
- The aligners are removable for better oral hygiene
- It can be cheaper than braces
Disadvantages:
- It relies on patient compliance – it needs to be worn 20-22 hours per day for it to work effectively
- Cannot correct severe bite problems
Invisalign can fix mild to moderate overbites in 6 to 12 months.
Depending on the severity, Invisalign can work just as well as braces to correct overbites.
Depending on the severity, Invisalign can be as fast as 4 months or take up to 18 months.
The dentist will examine your teeth and bite, and then discuss whether you are suitable for Invisalign. They will also discuss how it works, approximately how long your case will take and whether you need any additional treatment.
The teeth may be tender or ache slightly when they first start moving. This usually settles after a few days and may be tender with each new aligner change. It may be a low dull ache which is easily managed with a painkiller such as Panadol or Nurofen. Braces and Invisalign will feel the same as both are moving the teeth.
Invisalign treatment that is correctly planned will not damage or ruin your teeth. A poorly planned treatment or aligner treatment done through a DIY service has potential to cause irreversible tooth damage.
Invisalign can broaden the smile so that more teeth are shown when smiling. Changing the overbite may change the lip profile slightly.
Unfortunately, Invisalign treatment will not work predictably if only worn at night as the teeth will have a chance to relapse during the day and won’t stay in their new straighter position.
If the Invisalign is not worn for 24 hours or a week, the teeth will start moving back to their original positions. This is not ideal and it is recommended only have the Invisalign out for a few hours at a time.
After the Invisalign treatment is finished, retainers must be worn every day to prevent the teeth from moving back (relapsing).
