Invisalign is a set of clear trays made to fit your teeth. Each one moves your teeth a tiny bit, and over a few months they end up where your dentist planned.
It starts with a 3D scan of your teeth, so no messy moulds. You also get to see a digital preview of your smile before you decide anything. Your aligners are made and sent to you in two to four weeks. After that, you wear each set for one to two weeks, about 22 hours a day. They only come out to eat, to drink anything other than water, and to clean your teeth. We check in every six to eight weeks. Most people finish in six to 18 months, and you’ll get an estimate before you start.
Once you’re done, you get a retainer. Wear it as advised, because that’s what keeps your new smile where it is.
Are Invisalign aligners right for everyone?
Not always. They work well for most mild to moderate problems, like crowding, gaps and bite issues. Some trickier cases need a different approach. Your dentist will tell you once they’ve looked at your teeth.
How much does Invisalign cost?
It depends on your case. We also offer 0% finance to help spread the cost. Curious about Invisalign? Contact YOR Dental, Unit 1 Digital Park, Pacific Way, MediaCity, Manchester (M50 1DR) on 0161 503 0915.
