What it's for

Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, virtually invisible aligners to move your teeth gently into place. No metal brackets, no wires.

Treatment starts with a digital 3D scan of your smile, so you can see a simulation of your result before you begin.

We welcome Invisalign patients from Roodepoort, Wilgeheuwel, Johannesburg and across Gauteng.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

  • A consultation and smile assessment
  • A digital 3D scan and a personal treatment plan
  • Your series of custom clear aligners
  • Regular progress reviews
  • A retainer at the end to protect your new smile

What happens, step by step

  1. 01

    Consultation

    An examination and an honest conversation about your goals, timeline and budget.

  2. 02

    Digital smile scan

    A 3D scan of your teeth, used to plan your treatment and preview your result.

  3. 03

    Your aligners

    A series of clear aligners made for your smile, changed as your teeth move.

  4. 04

    Progress reviews

    Regular check-ins to keep everything on track, then a retainer to hold your result.

How you'll feel after

You may feel mild pressure for a day or two each time you switch to a new aligner. That's normal and settles quickly.

AFTERCARE

  • Wear your aligners for the number of hours you were given each day, usually 20 to 22 hours.
  • Take them out to eat or drink anything other than plain water.
  • Brush and floss before putting your aligners back in.
  • Clean your aligners every day with a suitable cleaner and cool or lukewarm water.
  • Avoid hot water, which can bend the plastic out of shape.
  • Keep your aligners in their case when you're not wearing them.
  • Come to your review appointments, and contact the clinic if an aligner cracks, is lost or no longer fits properly.
