Do you need Invisalign St John’s Wood?

When you look in the mirror, what do you see? Are you happy with the appearance of your smile, or do you find yourself wishing that your parents had got you braces when you were in school to realign your teeth? If you are feeling concerned about the aesthetics of your smile, it can affect your self-esteem and nobody wants that, especially when there is a way that you can realign your teeth discreetly and without people knowing that you are. At Aura Dental, we specialise in putting great smiles on patients’ faces. As finalists of the Private Dentistry Awards 2020, our reputation for doing what we do best is unequivocal. With Invisalign St John’s Wood, we treat mild to moderate alignment issues in a convenient and comfortable way.

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign St John’s Wood is a system that uses clear plastic aligners to apply pressure gently on teeth and make them move into the position that’s required. The aligners are worn like gum shields, but they are perhaps more comfortable thanks to their streamlined finish that is made bespoke to fit your mouth. You will be provided with sets of aligners to wear and change between on a fortnightly basis; this means you only need to come to see us for a check-up every 6 weeks. After your treatment has finished, you will then need to wear retainers.

Why Invisalign St John’s Wood?

Invisalign has many benefits for patients. Aside from the fact that they are virtually unnoticeable when worn, they are also removable. This means that you can take them out for up to 2 hours a day whilst you play sports or attend a special event. What’s more, you can also remove them while you eat and drink, which means that you won’t need to clean masticated food off your aligners! You will also be able to continue to eat whatever you like and you will be able to brush and floss as normal afterwards. This allows you to keep your teeth and gums in good nick!

Another benefit of Invisalign is that the aligners are very hard to break due to the plastic they are made of. This means that you shouldn’t need to take unnecessary time off work coming to see us for an emergency appointment. The treatment itself can be completed in as little as 6 months, which is great if you have a special event to attend. Another benefit of Invisalign is that when you have the iTero 3D scan of your mouth for us to get the prescription for your custom made aligners, we will also be able to generate an animation to show you what your teeth will look like upon completion of treatment, before you even get started! This technology is a great motivating factor to kickstart your Invisalign journey.

What next?

If you are keen to find out more about Invisalign and whether it is the right treatment for you, simply book in for an initial consultation. During this consultation, we can examine your mouth and discuss your concerns about your smile. We will be able to assess whether or not this is the right treatment for you or whether one of our other discreet treatments would be better. You can ask us as many questions as you like – we’re a friendly bunch! – and together we will put a treatment plan together that’s best for you. When you finish your treatment, we want you to be able to look in the mirror and feel proud of your smile.
