Invisalign is a revolutionary orthodontic treatment for straightening teeth using a series of precision-made clear aligners. Each set of clear aligners are tailored to fit each patient comfortably, which then then applies gentle pressure to re-position the teeth. The length of time the treatment takes depends on how complex your case is, which can last anywhere between three months to two years.
An appealing, alternative orthodontic treatment to classic fixed braces, Invisalign clear aligners are almost invisible and therefore barely noticeable. As they are removable, Invisalign is to designed to work with your lifestyle, so you can eat and carry on with your life with little disruption.

Engineered to treat a wide range of issues, they are highly flexible and tailored to fit, so are more comfortable.
