Invisalign®

Are you searching for a more subtle orthodontic solution that doesn’t detract from your smile? Invisalign® is a revolutionary system that uses advanced technology to help patients achieve straighter teeth without needing visible metal braces.

Ballina Coast Dental is proud to offer convenient orthodontic treatment with Invisalign clear aligners in Ballina, NSW.

Invisalign gives patients the opportunity to live life on their terms while attaining a healthier, more symmetrical smile. We invite you to schedule an orthodontic consultation with our team to learn if Invisalign is right for you. 

Your Dream Smile Is Possible with Invisalign

Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that corrects bite imbalances for adults and teens. Invisalign can treat mild to moderate orthodontic concerns, such as:

• Crooked teeth
• Underbites
• Overbites
• Open bites
• Crossbites
• Gaps between teeth 
• Overcrowding

Invisalign uses clear plastic aligner trays to fit your unique oral blueprint precisely. The clear aligner trays gently reposition your teeth and jaws until treatment is complete. Your dentist may recommend wearing a new set of trays every two weeks for 20–22 hours each day. Average treatments last 12–18 months, depending on each patient’s case. 

How Does Invisalign Work?

Invisalign clear aligners are plastic trays that fit over the teeth and gradually move them into position. Your dentist will take a digital impression of your mouth and collaborate with our trusted, Australia-based laboratory partners, where an Invisalign specialist fabricates the aligner trays. When the trays are complete and ready to wear, we invite you to return to our dental clinic for a fitting. We check the aligner trays during this appointment to ensure they’re comfortable. You can then begin your Invisalign journey! 

Caring for Your Invisalign Clear Aligners 

Patients should regularly sanitise Invisalign clear aligners before and after wearing them. We recommend using an Invisalign sanitation kit or a soft-bristled toothbrush and a gentle, clear liquid soap to remove food particles. After brushing your aligners, rinse them thoroughly and store them in a vented, protective case when you’re not wearing them. 

Though Invisalign trays are made from strong plastic, they’re not indestructible. Invisalign trays should not come in contact with heat or not water, or they will warp or break. If your trays are damaged, please do not continue wearing them, as they can hinder your progress. Instead, we invite you to contact us so we can send you a replacement set of trays to wear.

If virtually-undetectable treatment is your style, Invisalign clear aligners in Ballina may be the solution for you! Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign clear aligners are removable, so patients can still enjoy their favourite meals without restrictions. Maintaining good oral hygiene with Invisalign is also easier because your smile will be free of metal wires and brackets. Another benefit of clear aligners is patients can receive other treatments, such as teeth whitening, during their Invisalign journey.
