The clear choice for
effective tooth straightening

Invisalign® can help to treat a variety of orthodontic concerns including teeth which are crooked, crowded or with gaps – but because it is clear, removable and comfortable, it won’t interfere with your life.

Your treatment is nearly invisible, almost no-one can tell you are wearing Invisalign®. You can smile more during your treatment because you can remove Invisalign.® You can also eat and drink what you like. Studies have shown that it can be better for your dental hygiene during treatment as well. With no metal or sharp edges, Invisalign® is comfortable to wear and does not cause allergies. So far over 8 million patients worldwide have more reasons to smile – thanks to Invisalign®. Clear, removable, comfortable.

Patient journey

1. Your consultation

Invisalign® treatment starts with a visit to Donna our Invisalign Treatment coordinator.

Your next stage would be a Comprehensive Examination with one of our Invisalign dentists, who will examine you and develop a computer model of your treatment. Together with your Dentist you can review and agree on your treatment before we make a series of aligners that will fit only you.

Patient journey

2. Your treatment

Each aligner is slightly different, moving your teeth gradually into the desired position. You wear each aligner for 1 week, before moving on to the next in the series.

Patient journey

3. Aftercare

Clean your aligners daily with lukewarm water and a soft toothbrush to keep them fresh and bacteria-free. Wear your aligners for 20-22 hours a day, only removing them for meals and oral hygiene.

Invisalign FAQs

  • Invisalign treatment is specific for each patient, but we’re able to give you a really good idea before you finally commit yourself to treatment. It can be as short as 3 months, and it can be as long as 18 months. Most of our patients find their treatments last about 12 months. Invisalign treatment used to take a long time, but Dr Toy was involved with research which enabled him to halve the time to put Invisalign in.

  • The worst feeling you’ll get is like a really good scale and polish, where you get some vibration and a lot of water. At any time, you can put your hand up and your dentist will stop straightaway. No injections are required throughout the whole Invisalign process. Once the aligners are fitted, the worst feeling you’ll get is some slight discomfort.

  • Many people actually find they prefer to wear the aligners, although at the start it may be difficult to try them on. Your teeth may be in slight discomfort when they move, but because they’re protected by the aligners, it’s not something that will bother you on a daily basis. Invisalign are better than fixed braces in this regard, because fixed braces can be very painful. Fixed braces can rub your lips and cheeks, and they certainly hurt your teeth when the practitioner tightens up those wires.

  • As well as providing expert clinicians, and effective teeth straightening treatment, we provide:

    • 3 sets of Vivera retainers
    • Dental monitoring app to save time travelling to appointments.
    • Free home tooth whitening or 20% off Zoom whitening.
    • Foam cleaning agent

  • Invisalign aligners can correct mild to moderate cases of crowding, gaps, overbites, underbites, and crossbites.

  • They are virtually invisible, allowing you to smile confidently throughout your treatment. Invisalign’s removable design means you can enjoy your favourite foods without restrictions and maintain optimal oral hygiene. The smooth, custom-fit aligners provide superior comfort, eliminating the discomfort often associated with wire adjustments. Plus, Invisalign treatment often requires fewer office visits and may provide faster results

“I don’t think a review can do enough justice to my superb experience at High Street Dental. I had numerous treatments from Invisalign to composite bonding and the outcome far exceeded what I had hoped for. I have had so many compliments!!”
