Invisalign in Oatley, NSW

Man holding clear aligners in Oatley, NSWInvisalign® is a modern alternative orthodontic treatment, where a series of invisible plastic trays, called aligners, are used to move your teeth gradually to achieve a functional bite and harmonious smile.

The invisible plastic aligners are fabricated using CAD/CAM technology based on data collected from your x-­rays, photos, models and clinical analysis. Depending on the individual cases, some minor reshaping and bonding on some teeth, with specifically shaped resin buttons that will be removed upon completion, may be required to move your teeth efficiently for an optimum outcome.

What Issues Can Invisalign Correct?

Invisalign helps with a wide variety of dental defects, including:

 

 

  • Gaps
  • Bite issues, including overbite
  • Crooked, twisted, and overlapping teeth gaps,

These problems are much more than a cosmetic issue. A well-aligned smile means strong, healthy teeth with fewer ongoing problems in the future.

You must wear each set of upper and lower aligners for at least 22 hours daily for two weeks before graduating to the next set. It's less intensive than traditional braces as these aligners move your teeth gently and slowly.

3 Practical Benefits of Invisalign

Invisalign may be the most popular clear orthodontic system available today. It is undoubtedly a name patients trust, and there are many advantages. Below, we outline just a few of the most practical benefits.

Discreet Treatment

With Invisalign, there are no brackets and wires to draw attention to your orthodontic treatment. This makes Invisalign ideal for patients who value discretion.

Removable Aligners

Removable aligners make Invisalign more user-friendly than traditional braces. Clean your teeth and enjoy your meals without restrictive wires and brackets.

Comfortable Care

The lab makes Invisalign of smooth plastic for maximum comfort. There are no weighty metals or tooth brackets to feel cumbersome in the mouth.

What Does Treatment Involve?

It begins with a consultation with Dr Boulos or Dr Ng, your dentists in Oatley, to determine if Invisalign is a suitable option for you.

Once that is decided, we will take x-­rays, photos and impressions of your teeth to assess your needs. The collected data is then sent to the Invisalign laboratories in the US for processing using their unique 3-D imaging software.

A virtual treatment video will be generated in two to three weeks to show the entire sequence of your treatment. Your dentist will further consult with you and explain the details involved, including how many sets of aligners are required, which indicates the length of your treatment.

  • We will then determine the total cost and progress payment method required of you.
  • We will determine the need for tooth reshaping or resin tags to guide tooth movement.
  • Treatment requires your commitment to self-­regulate throughout the programme.
  • We will need your authorisation to proceed and order the entire series of aligners.
  • Upon your authorisation, treatment can usually commence within four weeks.

After treatment, the dentist fits you with a retainer to keep your teeth from falling back into pre-orthodontic positions. 

Frequently Asked Questions

If you take care of your smile through brushing and flossing and see your Oatley dentist for check-ups and teeth cleans, you are more likely to be a candidate for Invisalign®. However, to be sure, we ask that you come into the clinic for a consultation with the dentist.

It may be that Invisalign is not suitable for your orthodontic needs and smile goals, that you’ll need pretreatments to come into candidacy or that Invisalign is the right option straight away.

Pretreatments for Invisalign may include addressing oral health issues like newly discovered tooth decay.

How Invisalign Works

Invisalign is a sequence of nearly transparent tooth aligners that gradually bring your teeth into position. You wear the first set of aligners for a week or two and then move on to the next. You stay on this course until you’ve used the last aligner. Periodically, you’ll visit us so the dentist can track your progress.

After Invisalign therapy, we fit you with a retainer.

Are You Considering Invisalign in Oatley?

If you would like to learn more about Invisalign or our other orthodontic systems, we encourage you to contact a dental team member today. Additionally, if you’re ready to book a consultation, we await your call.

Invisalign® is a modern orthodontic system that relies on clear aligners to correct issues like:

  • Overbite, underbite, openbite and crossbite
  • Unusual or inconsistent spacing between teeth
  • Crowded, overlapping and twisted teeth

Typically, Invisalign works well for mild to moderate orthodontic problems, but in some cases, it can correct more severe issues. Your dentist will evaluate your case to determine candidacy.

If Invisalign will not work for you or bring you to your alignment goals, your Oatley dentist can recommend an alternative treatment like braces.

Contributing to Invisalign Success

Following your dentist’s instructions is always the best course. Through consistency, you promote a predictable orthodontic result.

  • Change your aligners on schedule for the next set in the series.
  • Wear your aligners for at least 22 hours daily.
  • Continue to brush and floss your teeth regularly.
  • Continue seeing your dentist for checks, cleans and monitoring.
  • Be sure to keep your aligners clean.
  • See your dentist on schedule for orthodontic progress check-ins.
  • Never hesitate to contact us if you have questions or concerns.

About Invisalign in Oatley, NSW

Invisalign is a discreet system that brings your teeth into straighter and healthier positions. Our friendly dental team encourages you to call today to learn more about our orthodontic services or to book a consultation with the dentist.

Invisalign costs in Oatley, NSW, vary by patient and are determined by a few factors, including:

  • The complexity of your case
  • How long you’ll be in treatment
  • Whether you’ll need pretreatments

However, a consultation with the dentist addresses this concern. You’ll learn how long you’ll be in treatment, whether you’ll need pretreatments (extractions, etc.) and how much your Invisalign will cost.

If you’re not a candidate for Invisalign, the dentist will discuss alternative options, such as traditional bracket and wire braces.

When concerns are strictly cosmetic, we can also discuss fast braces. This system concentrates exclusively on your smile line, which allows for a shorter treatment timeline.

About Invisalign® Clear Braces

Invisalign uses clear tooth aligners fabricated from impressions of your teeth. You wear each set of aligners for a week or two before moving on to the next, allowing for a gradual movement of the teeth into straight positions.

After you’ve completed treatment, the dentist provides a custom retainer to help prevent orthodontic relapse. Typically, this is worn at night.

Your Invisalign Dentist in Oatley Welcomes Your Call

If you want to book your Invisalign consultation or have questions for the dentist, we encourage you to contact a dental team member today.

Invisalign® is the top choice among patients and the system they typically ask for by name. It is a way to correct orthodontic problems without wire and bracket braces. It offers discretion and comfortable plastic aligners to enhance your treatment months.

Oral Health Benefits of Invisalign® Clear Aligners

Besides being aesthetically transformative, Invisalign in Oatley promotes better oral and jaw joint health.

Straight teeth make brushing and flossing more productive because there are fewer tight spaces for bacteria and plaque to collect and hide. The system also reduces stress on specific teeth taxed with most chewing—a common problem with dental misalignment. Additionally, a level bite surface helps protect your jaw joint health against issues like TMD (temporomandibular joint dysfunction).

In many cases, straight teeth mean a healthier smile.
