Invisalign in Quakers Hill

Invisalign uses a series of custom-made clear aligners to gradually move teeth into position. The aligners are removable and virtually invisible when worn, making them a discreet option for adults and older teenagers who want to straighten their teeth.

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is a clear aligner system that uses BPA-free transparent plastic trays, each worn for approximately one to two weeks, to progressively shift teeth. Each set of aligners moves teeth a small amount, guided by a detailed digital treatment plan.

Because the aligners are removable, you can eat and drink without restriction and maintain your normal oral hygiene routine.

When is it suitable?

Invisalign can suit a range of orthodontic concerns. During a consultation we assess whether it’s a good fit for you.

Questions we get asked about aligners

Treatment length depends on your individual needs. We give you an estimated timeframe after assessing your teeth and discussing your goals.
Aligners are generally worn for most of the day and night, and removed for eating, drinking, and cleaning your teeth. We explain the routine at your consultation.
Some people notice mild pressure when they start a new set of aligners, which usually settles within a day or two. Tell us if anything feels off and we’ll check it.
Yes. Because the aligners are removable, you take them out to eat and drink, then clean your teeth and put them back in.

Only half sure about aligners?

You can have the scan, see the simulation, and still decide against it. Plenty of people do, and we won’t chase you about it.

Why you won't find results photos here

We only publish before-and-after photographs of our own Invisalign patients, shot at the same angle and lighting, and only where the patient has given us written consent. We would rather show you nothing than show you someone else’s teeth.

Ask at your consultation and we can go through cases we’ve treated on screen, including the ones that took longer than planned.

Aligner results depend on how consistently they’re worn. Nothing here is a guarantee of outcome.
