Invisalign Llanelli
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign in Llanelli can be a great alternative to conventional braces for many patients. They are a series of clear, removable trays that are worn to straighten your teeth. This is without the need for the traditional “train track” braces. So basically, Invisalign rethinks the whole braces concept. The trays are custom made they fit your teeth and are removable. Therefore, every time you change your retainer your teeth are moving little by little. From there you are another step closer to your perfect smile, here at your local Dentist in Llanelli!
Benefits of Invisalign
Virtually invisible
As the retainers are clear Invisalign is a discreet way to straighten your teeth. White filling material (composite) is placed on several teeth to assist the retainers in moving your teeth. These can be visible if you are very up close to a person. But are a lot more subtle and discreet than your usual metal attachments.
Removable
Each of the trays can be removed allowing you to clean your teeth effectively and also allowing you to eat in comfort. All retainers need to be worn for 22 hours a day to ensure your teeth maintain the correct position.
Decrease self consciousness
Many people are put off having braces especially later on in life by the thought of everyone knowing that they are having braces. Having Invisalign in Llanelli can decrease patients’ anxiety regarding dental orthodontic treatment.
Less surgery time
Traditional braces can involve many time-consuming orthodontic appointments. Whereas Invisalign can half these appointments in most cases!
Works fast
You could see results in as little as six months depending on the complexity of your case.
Reliable and trusted
Invisalign has helped over 10 million patients achieve their perfect smiles so you know you are in safe hands. Regular reviews with your Dentist mean you can keep an eye on your progress and know that you are on track.
The Invisalign journey
Initial consult
Your Invisalign journey begins with an initial consultation appointment! Our Invisalign Llanelli Dentist will ask you some questions about your desired smile, past dental treatment and take some photographs of your teeth. At the end of the consultation, we can let you know if you are a suitable candidate for Invisalign treatment. Also, this appointment gives you a chance to ask any questions you may have.
If you decide to go ahead with your plan for your perfect smile you will be invited back for a scan appointment. At this appointment, we use our in-house scanner to scan your teeth in detail. This is a small device that takes thousands of photographs per second and this detail is then sent to Invisalign so your treatment is completely customised to you.
ClinCheck appointment
This is where the fun begins! At this appointment, you get to see how your teeth will move during your Invisalign treatment using computer software to visualise the changes to your teeth. It allows you to see what the end result will look like and how long approximately the changes will take.
Fit appointment
Finally, the big day has arrived. During this appointment, a series of attachments – white filling material- is placed on the surface of your teeth. If space needs to be created some teeth are slenderised during this appointment to make the space. Your fully customised Invisalign aligned are then fitted and checked for comfort – et voila! You have started your Invisalign journey!
Review appointments
To ensure that your teeth are moving in the predicted manner you will have a series of review appointments with your dentist every couple of weeks. These allow us to check the fit of your retainers, check on the attachments and see if any alterations need to be made. These appointments also allow you to check on the progress and see how your teeth are moving!
Vivera retainer appointment
Now you’ve got your perfect smile we want to keep it that way! Once your treatment has finished a customised vivera retainer will be made for you which is 30% stronger than other leading clear retainer materials.
