Invisalign in Loughborough

"I cannot recommend Katy and her team enough! I had my Invisalign treatment done by Katy and I felt like she really, really cared. She was extremely friendly and I always felt relaxed. Katy seemed realistic in her goals when talking through the Invisalign plan with me.

The outcome was UNREAL! My teeth and overall dental hygiene have vastly improved. I would never go to anyone else other than Katy and her team!

I AM A PEACOCK NOW!!!"

A beautiful, smile is a powerful thing. It can change your outlook, help you overcome inhibitions and give you greater confidence – in both your professional life and when you are out socialising.

If you've ever thought about improving your smile, Invisalign could be the clear way forward.

What is Invisalign?

Developed by Align Technology together with leading orthodontists in 1997, Invisalign straightens your teeth using a series of custom-made clear aligners. Comfortable, clear and removable – Invisalign transforms your smile without disrupting your life. Something that over 8 million people worldwide have already discovered

Invisalign Aligners...​
  • Are comfortable and nearly invisible.
  • Gently and continuously move your teeth in small increments.
  • Are worn for approximately two weeks. Then you switch to a new set of aligners.
  • Are removable so you can eat whatever you want and maintain good oral hygiene.
Treatable issues...​

By using advanced technology, Invisalign can treat a broad range of dental and orthodontic issues that were previously treated with traditional braces – from minor tooth movements to more complex cases. These issues include:

  • Overly crowded teeth.
  • Widely spaced teeth.
  • Cross bite.
  • Deep bite.
  • Under bite.

Step 3
We'll give you a series of aligners to wear every day and change at home – on average every 1-2 weeks (as directed by your Dentist). You can comfortably wear your aligners for 22 hours a day (the recommended daily wear). And because they're removable, it's easy to maintain your normal oral hygiene routine and enjoy your usual diet.

We'll invite you back to the practice around every 4-6 weeks to monitor progress and hand over your new aligners. At the end of your treatment, you will need to wear your retainers to maintain your new smile.

How does the treatment work?

It takes approximately between 9 and 18 months to create a new smile using Invisalign. Getting there takes just four simple steps:

  1. You meet with an Invisalign Provider for a consultation about your treatment., based on your treatment plan and your dental records, a virtual 3D treatment plan is generated that shows you the expected movement of your teeth from their current position to the desired final position.
  2. Once you and your Invisalign Provider have approved the treatment plan, the aligners are custom-made to fit your teeth. The number of aligners varies for each person.
  3. You wear your aligners about 20 to 22 hours every day, except to eat, brush, and floss, or for a specific occasion.
  4. Every two weeks, you switch to a new set of aligners. The aligners will gradually move your teeth towards their final prescribed position.

The Benefits.

Custom-made to fit your teeth and your lifestyle, Invisalign offers many benefits beyond your brand-new smile:

  1. Nearly-invisible aligners mean hardly anyone will notice that you are straightening your teeth.
  2. The removable aligners allow you to maintain your dental hygiene, brushing and flossing as usual.
  3. You can also remove the aligners briefly to eat, drink or for special occasions.
  4. Even before you start treatment you'll know how long your treatment may take and what your teeth are expected to look like at the end.

What are Clear Aligners?

There is a solution to having straighter teeth without having to wear metal braces. Known as invisible orthodontics, this type of treatment offers you the choice of wearing a clear and sometimes removable appliance while straightening and aligning your teeth.

This is often a favourable option for adults who have professional careers and don't feel comfortable wearing unsightly 'train track' braces for months on end. The technology behind invisible orthodontics is highly advanced and often gives patients a much shorter treatment time, depending on their individual cases.

Benefits of this type of treatment include having teeth straightened in a generally shortened period of time, straighter teeth and alignment of your top and bottom jaws. You can also enjoy the flexibility of your braces being hidden from an untrained eye, making you feel less self-conscious when socialising or speaking in public. With removable devices you can also take them out to eat or for special occasions, so they fit around your lifestyle.

It is important to remember that straighter teeth are healthier teeth. When your bite is properly aligned and your teeth are straightened, there are less gaps and areas for food to get trapped and plaque to build up on the teeth, causing decay. In that sense, invisible orthodontics is a long-term investment in your oral health.
