Invisalign Scotland
What is Invisalign and how does it work?
Invisalign straightens your teeth using a series of nearly invisible, removable aligners that are custom made specifically for your teeth. As you replace each aligner every 2 weeks, your teeth will move gradually towards the projected final position. Invisalign can be used to correct a wide variety of cases of crooked teeth, overbites and crowding and can be used for gap closure.
What are the advantages of Invisalign over fixed braces?
What are the benefits of the Invisalign aligners for the patient?
- Customised - Impressions of teeth produces personal, custom made aligners
- Clear - Virtually invisible so only you will know you're straightening your teeth !
- Removable – Flexible to your life -> remove aligners to eat, maintain good oral hygiene and you can choose to remove them for special occasions
- Effective - Even before treatment is finished, you can start to see and enjoy the benefits of a better smile.
- Comfortable - Aligners are comfortable to wear – no metal wires or brackets to irritate your gums.

We offer 0% Finance over 12 months and interest bearing over 2/3 years. Our Invisalign dentist Mr Murphy, will dicuss the treatment plan at your consultation and provide an estimate of the cost.

What is the ClinCheck treatment plan and what does it show?
