Invisible Clear Aligner Orthodontics

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is a revolutionary orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually straighten teeth. Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign offers a discreet and comfortable way to achieve a beautiful smile.

The aligners are custom-made to fit your teeth precisely, and they’re designed to be worn for 20-22 hours per day. As you progress through the treatment, you’ll receive new aligners that gradually shift your teeth into their desired positions. Invisalign is ideal for patients with mild to moderate orthodontic issues, including crowding, gaps, overbites, underbites, and crossbites.

The Invisalign system and technology can be fitted at our Solihull dental clinic and has been designed to:-

Fit in with your lifestyle
Not use metal wires, brackets or bands, for a comfortable and enjoyable treatment
Not effect your confidence when you are smiling
Be completely discreet, no-one will even know you are even wearing them!

Why choose Invisalign?

Increasingly popular with adults and teenagers, Invisalign offers a discreet, minimally invasive, and highly effective way to change the appearance of your smile. It allows you to achieve your dream straighter smile in comfort, without any metal brackets or wires digging in and irritating your skin.

Invisalign is extremely easy to use, as custom-made aligners gradually move the positions of your teeth. Invisalign blends perfectly into your everyday life and requires no changes to your diet or lifestyle as the aligners can be removed for eating, drinking, and brushing your teeth.

Invisalign’s innovative clear aligners are virtually invisible in the mouth when worn, giving a confidence boost even during treatment. No one needs to know you are on a journey to beautifully straight teeth until they notice you smiling much more once your treatment is complete!

How Does Invisalign Work?

Invisalign technology and treatments consist of a series of aligners that will gradually align and straighten your teeth. Each aligner will roughly be worn for two weeks before you start wearing the next in the series (exact times will vary from patient to patient). Each aligner in the series will be slightly different from the last and will gently apply more pressure to the teeth that are being straightened. For more information, please refer to our blog post on how Invisalign works.

Though the aligners are removable, they will need to be worn day and night and only be removed for:

Brushing
Flossing
Eating
Drinking

Please note: By not consistently wearing your aligners, your teeth can start to move back to their original position, and treatment times can take considerably longer.

Can teenagers and adults have Invisalign?

Invisalign can be used to treat both teenagers and adult patients depending on the suitability of the individual. Invisalign is one of the more popular treatments with our adult & teenager patients as it allows them to discretely straighten their teeth, whilst easily fitting into their lifestyle.

The convenience, effectiveness, and easy-to-use nature of Invisalign have made it the straightening system of choice for millions of patients looking to improve their smiles worldwide. It’s the clear choice for patients looking for a cosmetic approach to their orthodontic treatment, eliminating the worry that they will feel self-conscious wearing traditional metal braces. Invisalign offers a very successful way to boost confidence and achieve a dream smile.

Invisalign After Care

After you have completed the Invisalign programme, we will *whiten and recontour your teeth (if required). *Please Note: You must be at least 18 years old and suitable for teeth whitening.

Tooth re-contouring will treat any minor chips or blemishes you might have had before having Invisalign, which will truly complete your new smile.

You will need to wear retainers to keep your teeth in their new positions following your Invisalign treatment. Teeth have a habit of moving out of place, so you will need to wear retainers on a part-time basis (usually overnight) for as long as you wish your teeth to stay straight. You will be given fixed or removable retainers.

How long does Invisalign straightening take?

This will be case-dependent, based on the severity of your needs. Typically, Invisalign can use between 18-36 aligners (both upper/lower arches), which takes around 9-18 months to complete the treatment.

During the treatment, you will need to visit your dentist every 4-6 weeks for a progress check-up, and you will also be given your next series of aligners. If you are looking for a quicker alternative to Invisalign (and you are suitable), we also offer 6-month smiles.

Are the aligners comfortable?

Yes, Invisalign aligners have been designed with comfort in mind, enabling you to easily wear them for up to 22 hours a day. They fit snugly over the teeth and have no metal brackets or wires to irritate the skin.

How long do I need to wear the aligners for each day?

You need to wear your aligners for around 22 hours a day in order for your treatment to be most effective. You can take them out for eating, drinking, brushing your teeth, and playing contact sports.

What are Invisalign aligners made of?

The Invisalign aligners are made from strong medical-grade thermoplastic material, which has been uniquely developed for the Invisalign system.

What should I do if I lose an aligner?

Scott Araya

Put off visiting a dentist for some years and need a host of work undertaking. Laura and her assistant Georgie were great. Very professional and compassionate about relieving my anxiety about visiting a dentist. A friendly vibe throughout all the staff creates a relaxed atmosphere I’d reccomend to anyone.

Biscoff Lover

I had a great experience with Yasmin being my Dentist at Ascent. She reassured me every step of the way throughout my journey. I had my teeth whitened, a new crown fitted and some composite bonding. I was so happy with the final result. Thankyou! 🤍 …

David Sage

For many years I felt self conscious about my teeth which inhibits the ability to smile, so I eventually decided to get something done and approached Ascent Dental Care in Dorridge. From the initial visit they were professional and efficient. The treatment from Yasmine and the team at Ascent was excellent, perhaps a little uncomfortable at times but not painful. The results are fantastic and now I just have to get into the habit of smiling and showing my wonderful new teeth.

I want to say a huge thank you to: Jaz, Faresh & all the staff that took care of me throughout my treatment.
I never used to smile and show my teeth on photos.
I can now smile with confidence, as my smile has been returned.
Anyone who is considering undergoing dental treatment should definitely speak with Ascent Dental first.
As they listen to what you are trying to achieve, and make you feel safe, reassured and satisfied.
Thanks guys

Linda Wadley

As someone who has a dreadful fear of the dentist chair, I would like to thank both Laura for sorting out my emergency tooth problem and Jaz for his kindness and for his approach to my fears. Thank you all for your professionalism and most of all your kindness to someone who has a huge fear of dentists

I recommend Ascent Dental to everyone!

Alison-Frances McKnight

I had my two front crowns taken out and replaced with implants and a further crown fitted by Faresh and have nothing but praise for the whole team. The Surgery is welcoming and peaceful and the staff are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Faresh is not only extremely skilled in the mechanical and surgical sides of dentistry, he also has an excellent chair-side manner and makes you relaxed and confident. The process was long and at times painful but the treatment and support was first rate and the result was worth it. I am a very satisfied and happily smiling customer!! Thank you Ascent Dental
