What is Invisalign in Luton?

Invisalign is a popular brand provider of clear aligners, and an effective brace option for patients at our clinic within Luton. Clear aligners answer the demand for discreet forms of orthodontics within the field of dentistry, and are clinically proven to realign and therefore straighten the patient’s teeth. Invisalign is becoming increasingly popular, due to their invisible appearance and fast acting dental results.

Is Invisalign in Luton right for me?

If you are a patient who is suffering from an overbite, overcrowding, or spacing of the teeth, then clear aligners may be a good orthodontic fit for you. Invisalign may be suitable for patients of the older generation, and for those who do not wish for obvious dental work. Unfortunately, Invisalign is not suitable for children and can only be used for our patients with fully formed adult teeth. If you are interested in receiving this form of brace, you may be curious as to how the treatment actually works.

How does the Invisalign in Luton treatment process work?

At our clinic in Luton we strive to make the treatment process as stress free and therefore as simple as possible. After our dentists have determined that Invisalign is right for you, we can take digital impressions of your teeth. Thanks to modern dental advancements, we have eliminated the need for messy dental putty, meaning we can create your trays with a few simple steps. After your impressions have been taken we can send your scans to Invisalign who can create your clear aligners!

The final results

Our digital impression system allows our patients to see their expected dental results, as well as the expected treatment time, and the exact number of clear aligner trays that are required. Our modern digital system allows a reduced number of dental appointments to be required, meaning a decline in treatment costs for our patients.

How to maintain your new smile

After you have completed your Invisalign treatment, you may be wondering how to maintain your smile, the answer would be retainers. Retainers are created using impressions of your teeth and essentially ensure your teeth remain in the desired position. Initially you may have to wear your retainers often, although the frequency may decline as the months pass.

How to start your treatment journey

Patients may be unsure of how to start their treatment journey, however it may be simpler than they initially believe. Located on our website, we offer our patients a direct telephone number, however we also offer an online application form, which may be preferred by many.

Pressed for time?

Many of our busier patients may not have time to book an initial consultation over the telephone, which is why we offer an online application form. Patients have to fill in a few simple details, saving them bags of time, and ensuring even our busiest patients can achieve their dream smile!

How expensive are Invisalign?

It is always hard to give our patients an exact price for their chosen dental treatment, as the cost may vary depending on the individual case presented to us.
