Most people finish Invisalign in 6 to 18 months. Minor gaps or slight crowding can take around six months, and more complex cases usually need 12 to 18 months.
How long you’ll need depends on how far your teeth have to move. At your first appointment, we scan your teeth and show you a 3D preview of the whole journey, so you know your finish date before you commit.
The aligners only work if they’re in your mouth for 20 to 22 hours a day. Take them out to eat and brush, then put them straight back. Skipping hours is the most common reason treatment overruns.
Check in with us every six to eight weeks so we can make sure each stage is on track. After the final tray, you’ll wear a retainer at night to keep your teeth where they’ve landed. Visit YOR Dental at Unit 1 Digital Park on Pacific Way in MediaCity, Manchester (postcode M50 1DR) to see your treatment preview.
