Invisalign in Croydon
Let’s get you a new smile without anyone knowing!
Invisalign Treatment—an Overview
Crooked teeth have been a cause of concern for both teenagers and adults for decades. While they long for a picture-perfect smile, the clunky metal braces giving off Ugly Betty looks are often discouraging.
Modern dentistry has resolved this problem and offered a path-breaking solution in the form of aligners. One name that stands out in this space is Invisalign. If you’re looking for a way to straighten your teeth without the hassle of traditional metal braces, Invisalign in Croydon offers a modern and discreet solution. You can smile at the camera, take a close-up selfie, attend face-to-face meetings, socialise and more confidently without having to purse your lips and hide your teeth with Invisalign on!
What is Invisalign?
If you are keen to learn the meaning of Invisalign, here it is. Invisalign is a system of custom-made, clear, resin-made (plastic) trays that snugly fit over all the upper and lower teeth and gently shift them into their ideal position. They are custom-made using precise 3D digital scans of your mouth, making them precise and tailored to meet your needs.
Dentistry has evolved since the days of metal bands, brackets, buttons, and wires that were conventionally used to align teeth. The benefits of Invisalign treatment help you achieve a healthier smile while avoiding the pain, bruises and social embarrassment of the visible traditional braces.
Do You Need Invisalign?
Yes, if you are looking for user-friendly, discreet teeth straightening options, Invisalign is the way to go—it is also removable, so you can eat, drink, and brush your teeth as usual. We regularly provide consultations for Invisalign therapy to patients from Croydon, Addiscombe, Shirley, West Wickham, Thornton Heath, and Addington.
Benefits of Invisalign
There are several advantages of invisalign:
Invisible and aesthetic
Invisalign treatment can ‘invisibly align’ teeth and correct issues like gaps, overcrowding, or overbites and underbites.
Painless and easy to use
Unlike braces, Invisalign aligners are soft and pliable, making them comfortable and painless.
Customised treatments
We use advanced 3D digital scans, virtual AI planners and smile previews to ensure you feel confident in your treatment.
Fast results
Worn for 16–22 hours per day—they apply light constant forces on the tooth, making them more effective for faster results.
Less dental appointments
You’ll typically only need to visit every 6–8 weeks for a quick check-up, saving you time.
Cost-effective in the long run
The initial costs may be high, but at Smile 4U, the Invisalign cost in Croydon has flexible payment options.
What Our Patients Say
Frequently Asked
Questions
Find the answers to the most commonly asked questions regarding the treatment below:
How do I clean Invisalign aligners?
Simply clean your aligners with lukewarm water and a soft brush. It’s also a good idea to rinse them after every meal to keep them fresh and free of food particles. Many OTC aligner cleansing tablets are available to keep them hygienic.
Can I eat and drink with the aligners?
No, you should remove your aligners while eating or drinking. This lets you enjoy your meals without worrying about damaging or staining the aligners and ensures that your teeth remain clean and healthy.
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
Treatment duration varies based on different teeth alignment issues, but on average, Invisalign treatment takes anything from 3 to 12 months.
