Invisalign
Discreet, effective orthodontic treatment for a straighter smile
Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible and designed to move your teeth gently and effectively, so you can live your life freely during treatment.
The beauty of Invisalign is you get many of the benefits of braces, and in most cases, without the need for a specialist.
Here at Ashgrove Dental, we will always be upfront with you if we feel Invisalign isn’t the right solution for you. For complex cases we will refer patients to an orthodontist to receive the best care based on individual needs.
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a set of custom-made, clear aligners (similar to a retainer) that pushes teeth into the ideal position without the need for traditional wire braces.
Each Invisalign treatment plan is fully customized to the patient. We work backwards from your ideal smile, to create a series of aligners that will gradually shift your teeth into a new position. Every one to two weeks, you’ll switch to a new aligner, and each set gets you closer to your dream smile.

FAQs
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
The length of treatment will depend on how many aligners you need. You can expect the process to range from 20 – 60 weeks. Your dentist will share with you an estimated timeframe for treatment.
What is the minimum and maximum age to get Invisalign?
As a general rule, anyone who has all their adult teeth can get Invisalign! However, we don’t often recommend young children to have Invisalign because their adult teeth may still be coming through.
How often do I have to wear my clear aligner/Invisalign retainer?
During treatment, you’ll need to wear it 22-23 hours of the day. After treatment, we recommend wearing retainers every night to prevent your teeth from moving back to their original position.
