At Purley Dental Care, we believe that everyone deserves a smile they can be proud of. Invisalign treatment is a modern, discreet solution that helps you achieve straighter teeth without needing to have traditional bulky metal braces. Whether you’re a teen or an adult, Invisalign offers a comfortable and virtually invisible way to transform your smile.
Invisalign is a modern orthodontic system that uses a collection of clear, custom-made aligners to gradually straighten your teeth. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign aligners are made of smooth plastic and are barely visible when worn, making them an ideal choice for those who want a discreet treatment option.
Each set of aligners is personalised to fit your teeth perfectly, applying gentle pressure to move them into the desired position. As you progress through your treatment, you’ll switch to a new set of aligners every one to two weeks, gradually bringing your teeth to their final straightened position.
Invisalign can help with a wide range of orthodontic issues, including crowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. The treatment is appropriate for both adults and teenagers, offering a flexible and effective solution for achieving a beautifully aligned smile.
Discreet Appearance: One of the most significant benefits of Invisalign is its near invisibility. The clear aligners are virtually undetectable, making them a great option for those who prefer a more subtle approach to teeth straightening.
Comfort: Invisalign aligners are made from smooth, BPA-free plastic, which means no uncomfortable metal brackets or wires. They are custom-fitted to your teeth, reducing the chance of irritation or discomfort.
Removability: Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign aligners can be removed for eating, drinking and cleaning your teeth. Unlike traditional braces it allows you to maintain your regular teeth cleaning routine and enjoy all your food without any restrictions.
Effective Results: Invisalign is highly effective in treating a variety of orthodontic issues, from minor adjustments to more complex cases. With frequent wear, you can expect noticeable improvements in your smile.
Convenience: Invisalign aligners require fewer dental visits for adjustments compared to traditional braces. Your progress can be monitored easily, making it a convenient option for busy individuals.

At Purley Dental Care, we guide you through every step of your Invisalign journey, ensuring that your treatment is tailored to your unique needs and goals. Here’s what you can expect:
Your Invisalign process begins with a comprehensive first consultation at our Purley clinic. During this visit, we will assess your dental health, discuss your treatment aims, and find out if Invisalign is a good option for you. We will take digital impressions and X-rays of your teeth to create a 3D model, which will be used to design and create your custom aligners.
Based on the 3D model of your teeth, we’ll develop a personalised treatment plan that shows the exact movements of your teeth and the expected timescale of your treatment. You’ll even get a preview of how your smile will look once the treatment is complete.
Once your custom trays are ready, you will return to our clinic to receive your first set. Our dentist will check they fit well and provide you with important details on how to wear and care for them. Typically, aligners should be worn for 20 to 22 hours a day, only removing them for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.
Throughout your treatment, you’ll visit us every six to eight weeks so we can monitor your progress and provide you with the next set of trays. These appointments are quick and simple, allowing us to ensure that your treatment is on the right track.
Once your treatment is complete, we will make you a retainer to help maintain your new smile. Wearing a retainer as instructed is important to keep your teeth in their newly aligned positions. We will also arrange follow-up appointments to monitor the long-term stability of your results.
The cost of Invisalign treatment at Purley Dental Care varies depending on the complexity of your case and the duration of your treatment. However, we strive to make Invisalign affordable and accessible to all our patients.
We offer flexible payment plans and financing options to help spread the cost of treatment over time. Additionally, if you have dental insurance, it may cover a portion of the treatment cost. During your consultation, we’ll provide a detailed breakdown of the costs involved and discuss the best payment options for you.

The timeframe for Invisalign treatment varies depending on each individual. Typically, treatment takes between 12 to 18 months, but some patients may achieve their desired results in as little as six months.
Invisalign is suitable for most adults and teenagers who want to straighten their teeth. However, it may not be the best option for complex orthodontic cases. During your consultation, our dentist will evaluate your teeth and be able to determine if Invisalign is right for you.
For the best results, Invisalign aligners should be worn for 20 to 22 hours a day. You should only remove them for eating, drinking and cleaning your teeth.
We recommend you remove your Invisalign aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water. Eating with aligners can damage them, and drinking coloured or sugary drinks can cause staining or tooth cavities.
After your Invisalign treatment is completed, you’ll need to wear a retainer to maintain your new smile. Retainers can prevent your teeth from shifting back to their original positions. We will provide you with a custom retainer and instructions on how often to wear it.
