Invisalign/ Clear aligners - Your Dentistree Mornington
Invisalign provides a convenient solution for clients of all ages who want to align their teeth without worrying about metal brackets and wires.
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign treatment uses a system of clear and removable orthodontic aligners to gently move your teeth. Each aligner will gradually move the teeth closer to achieving the dream smile that you have always wanted. These custom-made aligners are made from 3D computer-imaging technology. This means that results are predictable and it is easy to visualise your progress.

What Is The Treatment Process?
Initial Consultation
Our cosmetic dentists will start by listening to your smile goals and aesthetic needs.Together with an assessment of your general oral health, bite and facial profile, we will discuss your suitability and individualised treatment plan. If you are excited to commence your invisalign treatment, we will take scans and photographs of your teeth.
3D Scans
To create your personal and individualised set of aligners, Your Dentistree Mornington utilises the most advanced technology to create 3D digital scans of your teeth and bite. Using the virtual 3D treatment planning software will show you upfront what your teeth are expected to look like at the end of treatment. From the results of the software, your custom-made, precise aligners are manufactured specifically for you.
Your Invisalign Journey
You will begin your Invisalign journey with an initial set of aligners fabricated to gently move the teeth into correct alignment. Minimal preparation such as polishing and attachments may be required to help the teeth move accurately into position.
We recommend wearing a new set of aligners weekly, for 20-24 hours each day. We schedule treatment progress appointments every 4-6 weeks to prescribe the next set of aligners. At each of the treatments, you will be able to view the progress and improvements to your new smile.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Treatment Painful?
You may feel light tenderness or pressure on your teeth at the early stages of your treatment. This pressure generally subsides throughout the progression of treatment. Invisalign clients generally experience less pain or discomfort compared to traditional braces.
How Do I Eat With Aligners?
You can easily remove your Invisalign aligners to enjoy your favourite food and place them back in. Aligners are a more attractive option for those who enjoy a more care-free and dynamic lifestyle. This means you have more food options and less worrying compared to when wearing fixed braces.
Am I Able To Drink Staining Beverages Like Coffee and Tea?
Absolutely – you can easily remove your aligner and maintain good oral health hygiene after any beverage. We recommend rinsing with water after consuming these beverages to reduce overall staining.
