Invisalign FAQs
Invisalign treatment is a series of nearly invisible, removable aligners that are custom made to gradually straighten your teeth. Each Invisalign clear aligner applies gentle pressure to your teeth to slowly move them, until they have straightened into the final position prescribed by your dentist or orthodontist.
Invisalign aligners are completely clear and virtually invisible, with no train track brackets and wires. They’re comfortable to wear and completely removable, which means you can eat and drink whatever you like during treatment. You can also remove your aligners to brush and floss your teeth, so you can maintain the very best oral hygiene.
Invisalign aligners have straightened over 18 million smiles worldwide, and are backed by years of research and results – more than any other clear aligner.
Invisalign is one of the most trusted teeth straightening treatments in the world. To date, more than 18 million patients have been treated with Invisalign across the globe.
At MiSmile Birmingham, we have created more than 6,000 straight smiles with Invisalign, and are the UK’s top Invisalign provider.
We understand that cost is an important consideration. Exact treatment costs are dependent on your individual requirements, but typically Invisalign treatment is comparable to traditional fixed braces. In fact, Invisalign could cost you from as little as £56 per month.
Yes, Invisalign treatment is a dentist or orthodontist led teeth straightening treatment. This means your smile journey is carefully monitored to ensure you stick to your treatment plan, and any issues are picked up quickly.
No, Invisalign treatment is not available on the NHS as it is considered a cosmetic dental treatment. However, at MiSmile Birmingham we help make Invisalign affordable, and a straight smile could be yours from just £56 per month with finance.
Invisalign aligners apply gentle pressure to move your teeth in stages. Each Invisalign aligner moves your teeth around 0.25mm, and you change your aligners every one to two weeks. The movement of each aligner is carefully worked out in your personalised treatment plan, so only certain teeth move at a certain time. This means you achieve results efficiently and comfortably.
Invisalign aligners are made of a strong medical grade, virtually invisible thermoplastic called SmartTrack material. Only Invisalign aligners are made from SmartTrack material, which has been specially engineered for the Invisalign system. This means Invisalign aligners can straighten your teeth more predictably, and are more comfortable to wear and easier to put on and take off.
Invisalign treatment should not be painful. You may experience some minor discomfort at the beginning of each new stage of treatment, typically described as a feeling of pressure. This is normal, and is a sign the aligners are working. Any discomfort should go away after a couple of days.
Anything you like! Invisalign aligners are completely removable, so that means that you are free to eat and drink whatever you want. Just take your aligners out before eating and drinking and, to ensure good hygiene, you should brush and floss your teeth after you’ve eaten, before putting your aligners back in.
You need to wear your Invisalign aligners 22-24 hours a day, to make sure your teeth move as per your treatment plan. You should only take your aligners out to eat, drink, brush and floss your teeth.
Most patients have no problems with their speech at all, however you may find there is a minor adjustment period while you get used to wearing your aligners.
No. We advise that you remove your aligners for all meals, snacks, chewing gum, smoking or vaping to avoid breakage or staining, and to keep your aligners clean and bright.
You should brush and clean your aligners regularly using lukewarm water. We also recommend using Retainer Bright a couple of times a week to keep your aligners fresh.
Don’t forget to brush your teeth after each meal and before putting your aligners back in to help maintain good oral hygiene.
Yes. After any teeth straightening treatment you will need to wear a retainer to make sure your smile stays perfect. We offer different retainer options depending on what works for you, like removable ones you can wear at night, and more permanent options too.
