The Hampstead Orthodontic Practice, in association with Align Technology, offers you a revolutionary new way to straighten your teeth - without braces. Only an orthodontist with Invisalign accreditation can offer this innovative technology.
You may have heard about the new ‘invisible brace’ and wondered what it is all about. If you have teeth that are crowded, too far apart or have shifted since wearing conventional braces, Invisalign® may give you a new reason to smile!
Because it is nearly invisible, almost no one can tell you are wearing Invisalign®, so you can smile more during your treatment. The Invisalign® aligner is removable, so you can eat and drink what you like. Studies have shown that this can be better for your dental hygiene during treatment. With no metal or sharp edges, Invisalign® is comfortable to wear and does not cause allergies.
The convenience and ease of use have made it the choice of over half a million people, giving hundreds of thousands of people amazing new smiles.
How long will Invisalign®take?
Invisalign® only works while you wear the aligners. We recommend they are worn full time day and night (minimum of 22 hours). Each aligner is worn for 2 weeks, (before moving onto the next in the series), moving your teeth millimetre by millimetre, until you reach your desired result. The average length of treatment is fifteen months.

How many appointments will I need?
You will need an initial consultation with our Invisalign® accredited orthodontist, to determine whether you are a suitable candidate for treatment. During this consultation we can give you an indication of your final result, as well as the length and cost of your treatment.
Impressions, photographs, and x-rays of your teeth will be taken and sent to Invisalign®, to construct the 3-D image of how your teeth will look at each stage, from the beginning, to the end of treatment. The treatment software allows you to see a model of your teeth and the proposed treatment plan. We email this to you at the start of your treatment.
