Consultation and scan
The orthodontist assesses your bite, oral health and goals, then records the teeth when aligners are suitable.

Clear aligners, clearly planned
Digital orthodontic planning for suitable adult and teen smiles, with a sequence designed around everyday life.
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign moves teeth using a planned sequence of removable clear aligners.
Each aligner is worn according to your orthodontist’s schedule and applies controlled pressure to selected teeth. Digital records are used to plan movement, but in-person reviews remain important for monitoring fit, oral health and progress.
Could clear aligners suit you?
Invisalign can address many alignment and bite concerns, but suitability depends on the movement required and your ability to wear the aligners consistently.
- Alignment concerns
- Crowding, spacing and selected bite relationships may be suitable after orthodontic assessment.
- Wear routine
- Aligners are commonly worn around 20 to 22 hours a day and removed for eating and cleaning.
- Oral health
- Teeth and gums should be healthy before active orthodontic movement begins.
- Complexity
- Some movements may need attachments, elastics or a different orthodontic approach. Your clinician will explain the options.
