Treatment Procedure
Here is what your Invisalign journey looks like from your first appointment to your final smile.
Start with consultation: We discuss your smile goals, check your teeth and gums, and confirm whether Invisalign is the right treatment for you.
3D digital scan: Using an iTero scanner, we take a precise digital impression of your teeth. No messy moulds. This scan also shows you a simulation of your final smile.
Treatment plan review: Your dentist presents your full ClinCheck plan showing every stage of tooth movement and the estimated treatment length.
Aligner fitting: Your custom aligners arrive and are fitted at the clinic. Your dentist checks the fit and explains exactly how to wear and care for them.
Wearing your aligners: You wear each set for 20 to 22 hours a day and change to a new set every one to two weeks as your teeth gradually shift into position.
Progress check appointments: You attend short check-up appointments every six to eight weeks so your dentist can monitor progress and make any adjustments needed.
Post-Treatment Procedure
Once your teeth are straight, this next stage protects your results long term.
Final aligner removal: Your last set of aligners comes out and your dentist checks your bite and the overall position of your teeth carefully.
Retainer fitting: A retainer is fitted to hold your teeth in their new position. Without this, teeth can drift back over time.
Retainer wear guidance: Your dentist explains how long and how often to wear your retainer each day. Most patients wear it nightly long term.
Optional cosmetic finishing: Many patients choose to whiten their teeth after Invisalign for a bright, polished result to match their new smile.
Composite bonding option: If any teeth have small chips or shape differences, composite bonding can be added after treatment for a complete finish.
Long term care: Regular hygienist visits keep your teeth clean and your results looking good for years ahead.
