Invisalign® NZ Aligners
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a cutting-edge dental technology that has revolutionized orthodontic treatment. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign offers a discreet and comfortable way to straighten your teeth.
This advanced system utilizes a series of clear aligners custom-fitted to your teeth, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a subtle and effective approach to orthodontic care.


Advantages of Invisalign
Aesthetic Appeal
Invisalign stands out due to its aesthetic appeal. The clear aligners are virtually invisible, allowing you to improve your smile without drawing attention to your orthodontic treatment.
Comfort and Convenience
The aligners are designed for maximum comfort. Crafted from smooth, BPA-free plastic, Invisalign aligners eliminate the discomfort associated with traditional braces. They are also removable, enabling you to enjoy your favorite foods without restrictions and simplifying oral hygiene.
Effectiveness and Efficiency
Invisalign is highly effective at addressing a wide range of orthodontic issues, including overcrowding, gaps, overbites, and underbites. These aligners are tailored to your specific dental needs, gently guiding your teeth into their desired positions over time, delivering optimal results with minimal discomfort.
Invisalign vs. Traditional Braces
Appearance
Traditional braces are noticeable and can lead to self-consciousness. In contrast, Invisalign's clear aligners are virtually invisible, preserving your natural smile throughout the treatment.
Comfort
Metal wires and brackets in traditional braces can cause irritation and discomfort. Invisalign's smooth plastic aligners are designed for comfort, ensuring a pain-free experience.
Maintenance
Maintaining good oral hygiene with traditional braces can be challenging due to the numerous crevices that trap food particles. Invisalign, however, is removable, allowing for easy brushing and flossing to keep your teeth clean throughout the treatment.
Treatment Time
Invisalign often provides faster results compared to traditional braces, thanks to its innovative technology and the ability to address a wide range of dental issues.
