Beautiful straight teeth doesn’t mean you have to spend months wearing unsightly metal braces. Now, you can straighten teeth quickly and discreetly with Invisalign.

Invisalign is made up of a series of clear, removable aligners which straighten teeth so discreetly that no one will realise you’re wearing braces.

Thousands of patients from Shepperton, Littleton, Upper Halliford, Lower Halliford, Chertsey, Walton-on-Thames and throughout Surrey are using Invisalign clear braces to get a stunning new smile.

Many adults dream of straighter teeth but hesitate due to the metal brackets and wires of traditional braces. Fortunately, there’s a discreet alternative. With Invisalign® clear aligners, you can straighten your teeth almost invisibly. Over half a million people worldwide have trusted Invisalign® to create their perfect smile — and you can too.

HOW INVISALIGN
BRACES WORK

After your initial consultation, precise 3D digital images of your teeth are taken using our advanced iTero scanner. These visuals show how your teeth look now and how they will move with Invisalign treatment, right through to your final result.

Patients from Littleton, Chertsey, Walton-on-Thames, Shepperton, Upper Halliford, Lower Halliford particularly love this stage because it reveals exactly how their new smile will appear after completing Invisalign treatment.

The 3D scans guide the creation of your custom-made aligners, which generally take around two weeks to prepare.
At your next visit, your dentist will fit the first set of aligners. Depending on your case, you may have several tiny attachments added to your teeth, giving the aligners something to hold onto. These tooth-coloured attachments are discreet, comfortable, and completely painless.

You’ll then receive multiple clear aligners, which you’ll switch weekly as your smile transforms. For best results, Invisalign aligners must be worn for at least 22 hours a day, removing them only for eating, drinking, and brushing your teeth.

FAQs

How long does Invisalign treatment take?

Duration of Invisalign treatment varies depending on each patient’s needs. Minor teeth straightening can take approximately 3 to 6 months, while more complex cases may require up to 18 months. On average, most patients complete their Invisalign treatment within 12 months. A personalised assessment is necessary to determine your exact timeline.

How do I care for my Invisalign aligners?

To keep your Invisalign aligners clean and in good condition, gently brush them with a toothbrush and a small amount of toothpaste. Always remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than cold water to prevent staining or damage.

What happens if I don’t wear my Invisalign aligners for 22 hours a day?

Wearing your Invisalign aligners for the recommended 22 hours per day is essential for effective treatment. Skipping or reducing wear can delay your progress, as your teeth may not move into the correct position on schedule, preventing you from advancing to the next aligner.

Why do I need to remove my Invisalign aligners to eat and drink?

You should remove your Invisalign aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water. Eating with them in can damage or stain the aligners, as they are made from thin, flexible plastic. Removing them protects your aligners and helps maintain a clean, comfortable, and effective treatment experience.

What should I do if I damage or lose my Invisalign aligners?

If you damage or lose your Invisalign aligners, contact our Shepperton dental practice immediately. We will advise whether you should move on to the next set or continue wearing your previous aligners. To avoid interruptions, always keep your current aligners until your treatment is complete.
