Invisalign treatments are the newest and most advanced technological way of moving teeth and improving smiles.

Across the world, the last few years have seen the growth of Invisalign therapy in all countries due to the advancement of 3D medical imaging.

Some clients will have problems suitable for Invisalign, whilst others will still be recommended to have fixed appliances due to certain factors that will be explained at your first appointment upon dental examination. 

Invisalign can Treat a Variety of orthodontic cases

Invisalign can treat a variety of orthodontic cases. With the newest clear aligner technology, Invisalign provides a hassle-free way to straighten a wide range of concerns, including crowded teeth, teeth with spaces and overbites.

At your first appointment, we will assess your teeth via digital scans, which will provide a complete digital treatment plan.

THE Invisalign

Orthodontic Process

Is Invisalign for me?

Invisalign is a good option for those that have mild and moderate orthodontic problems. Some complex problems may also be treated with Invisalign, but not all. At your first consultation, we'll undertake x-rays, photos and digital scans of your teeth, which we’ll use to tailor a treatment plan to you, for the best possible results.

Custom-Made Aligners

As the most advanced system in Orthodontics, each set of custom-made aligners will be worn consistently removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.

Orthodontic Check-Ups

One of the biggest advantages of Invisalign is once your custom clear aligners have been made, patients will not have to attend as many check-ups. As there are no wires or brackets, there is no need for tightening or fixing.

Remote Monitoring

These technologically advanced treatments can be monitored online through 'virtual care' and this will save time and reduce the number of visits required.

This is a really positive factor for clients who work away, or who need to isolate/shield during the Covid pandemic.

What Our Clients Say

FAQ's

Most Frequently Asked Questions

An attractive smile can bring life-long benefits in terms of self-confidence, socialising and even career opportunities.

In addition to the cosmetic/social advantages of having a beautiful smile, well-aligned teeth are easier to clean. Patients who have had orthodontic treatment will gain long term health benefits by maintaining better dental hygiene.

After extensive scientific research and many technological advances, orthodontic treatment is easier than ever. Treatments are now shorter, more comfortable, and require fewer visits. Orthodontics is now a realistic option for anyone regardless of age or previous dental care. 

The type of brace you need depends on what your desired results and existing concerns you have. The choice of brace depends on the severity of the problem and the goals of treatment.

Invisalign and clear braces are similar in that they are much more difficult to detect than metal braces. While the two treatments have the same mission, there are stark differences between them.

  1. Invisalign provides virtual transparency, which is often unnoticeable in patients. While clear braces blend into the patient’s teeth, the brackets are more noticeable than Invisalign’s transparent retainer.
  1. Invisalign can be removed to wash and floss teeth. Ceramic braces are fixed to the tooth and won’t be able to be removed until the treatment course has been completed.

 

As with any type of orthodontic treatment, it does take a while to adjust to wearing aligners, and you may find them uncomfortable at first. Overall, once teeth have adapted, the treatment process is pain-free as your teeth should respond to ongoing orthodontic treatment.

Here at Donegal Orthodontics, our aim is to ensure our treatments match as closely as possible to the outcome you desire.

The first appointment is an opportunity for us to understand your teeth and bite in detail to plan your future treatments according to your orthodontic needs. Invisalign could be the solution for you but we will take x-rays, scans and a A 3D preview of your future smile to find the specific solution for your needs.

Throughout your treatment, you will wear your aligners nearly all of the time, with the exception of when you are eating and brushing your teeth. Invisalign treatments are different for each individual patient, but most patients can achieve their ideal smiles within 6 months to two years.  During that time, you will be expected to make occasional dental visits to monitor your progress.
