Straighten, Improve and Perfect Your Smile
Here at Park Street Dental Practice in Selby, we offer Invisalign® clear aligner treatment to help you achieve a straighter, more confident smile without the need for traditional metal braces.
Do you hide your smile in photographs or at special occasions?
Do you wish your teeth were straighter but feel unsure about fixed metal braces?
Would you like a discreet, comfortable and modern solution to teeth straightening?
Invisalign® is a virtually invisible aligner system designed to gently and effectively move your teeth into their ideal position. It is a popular choice for adults and teenagers who want to improve their smile without drawing attention to their treatment.
What is Invisalign®?
Invisalign® uses a series of clear, removable aligners that are custom-made to fit your teeth precisely. Each aligner gradually moves your teeth into position, following a carefully planned treatment pathway designed by your dentist.
The aligners are smooth, comfortable and discreet. Because they are removable, you can take them out to eat, brush your teeth, or attend important events, making them ideal for modern lifestyles.
Invisalign® can help treat:
- Crowded teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Crooked teeth
- Overbites and underbites
- Mild to moderate bite issues
Your Invisalign® Smile Journey
Your journey begins with a detailed consultation at our Selby practice. We will assess your smile, discuss your goals, and determine whether Invisalign® is the right treatment for you.
Digital scans or impressions are taken to create a personalised treatment plan. Using advanced technology, we can show you a preview of how your teeth are expected to move throughout treatment.
You will then receive a series of custom-made aligners. Each set is worn for approximately one to two weeks before moving on to the next in the series. For best results, aligners should be worn for 22 hours per day, removing them only for eating, drinking and brushing.
Depending on the complexity of your case, treatment can take as little as three months, with most cases completed within 3 to 12 months.
The Benefits of Invisalign®
• Nearly invisible appearance
• Removable for eating and brushing
• Comfortable, smooth aligners
• No metal brackets or wires
• Gradual and predictable results
• Suitable for many common orthodontic concerns
Because the aligners are removable, maintaining good oral hygiene during treatment is simple. You can continue brushing and flossing as normal.
