Invisalign Clear Braces
Straighten your teeth the invisible way
No matter what age you are, straightening your teeth can be life changing. Straighter teeth are easier to clean than crooked ones and gums fit more tightly around straight teeth. And of course, there’s the confidence boost that comes with a beautiful smile.
Invisalign® treatment uses a series of custom-made, virtually invisible aligners, that you change every two weeks for a new set. Each aligner is individually made to fit you perfectly ensuring maximum comfort. It’s the perfect orthodontic choice for modern life.
Why Choose Invisalign?
- Low visibility – no metal at all, hardly anyone will notice them
- Removable – Invisalign can be removed for meals, cleaning your teeth and special occasions
- Healthy – as the aligners are not attached to your teeth they allow for normal brushing, meaning it’s easier to maintain healthy teeth and gums during treatment
- Comfortable – no metal brackets or wires to irritate your gum or the inside of your mouth.
What’s your orthodontic problem?
Is Invisalign® treatment right for you? For many people, the answer is yes, for example if you have one of the common orthodontic problems listed below.
Whether you just want to be able to smile freely without worrying that your teeth let you down, or you’re a parent with a child whose teeth seem to be growing less than straight, or a teenager who feels conscious about their smile, see what Invisalign Treatment could do for you and your family.
Crowded teeth
This occurs when there is not enough room in the upper and lower jaws to fit all your growing teeth, which can then become misaligned or crooked. It’s hard to effectively clean misaligned teeth so problems of gum disease and tooth decay are more common with crowded teeth.
Overbite
This happens when the upper jaw abnormally overlap the lower jaw. An overbite can cause wearing of teeth on lower jaw and joint problems.
Underbite
Insufficient growth of the upper jaw or missing upper teeth can cause the lower jaw to protrude and give rise to an underbite. This hinders the normal functioning of the front teeth and can cause jaw pain.
Crossbite
When one or more teeth from the upper jaw, bite on the interior of the lower set of teeth, it’s referred to as a crossbite. This happens when both upper and lower jaws are misaligned. It can cause your teeth to chip and wear down.
Gapped teeth
Gaps in between teeth can occur due to abnormal jawbone growth or when, due to lack of teeth, neighbouring teeth shift from their respective positions into the extra space. Gapped teeth can give rise to gum problems and periodontal disease.
Open bite
An open bite occurs when some teeth on the upper and lower jaws are unable to meet each other. Genetics, poor chewing habits and excessive sucking on thumbs can cause an open bite.
You just want straighter teeth
You generally like your smile – but you really want to love it and you know it could look better. Maybe you have a special event coming up, or you want to increase your confidence at work or at school. Small fixes can make a big difference.

Straighten and Whiten your teeth!
An added bonus is that the clear aligners used in Invisalign are very similar to home whitening trays. Many patients have found this to be a good opportunity to whiten their teeth, not only further enhancing the benefits of orthodontic treatment but also reducing the cost of the treatments separately.
