Why Invisalign
Clear aligners that fitaround your everyday life.
Invisalign uses a series of custom-made clear aligners to move your teeth gradually into position — without brackets, wires, or putting your life on hold.
Removable when you need
Take them out to eat, brush and floss. No food restrictions and no wires to work around.
Gentler than fixed braces
Movement is planned in small, controlled steps, so treatment is typically more comfortable than traditional braces.
See the outcome before you start
A digital scan lets us map your treatment and show you the projected result at your very first appointment.

You might be wondering…
Common questions
How long does Invisalign take?+
It depends on your case. Minor corrections can take around six months, while more complex cases can run up to three years. We'll give you an estimated timeframe once we've scanned your teeth.
Will people be able to tell I'm wearing them?+
The aligners are clear and fit closely over your teeth, so they're very difficult to notice in everyday conversation.
Are they uncomfortable?+
You'll usually feel some pressure or tightness for a day or two after moving to a new aligner. That's the teeth shifting, and it settles quickly.
Can I eat and drink with them in?+
You take the aligners out to eat and drink anything other than water, then brush and pop them back in. That means no food restrictions.
How often do I need to come in?+
Most patients are seen roughly every 8–10 weeks so we can check progress and hand over your next sets of aligners.
Is the initial consultation really free?+
Yes. Your first Invisalign consultation is free and there's no obligation to go ahead. It's an assessment and quote only — no treatment is provided at that appointment.
How much does Invisalign cost?+
Cost varies with how much tooth movement is needed. We provide a written quote at your appointment, and any eligible health fund rebate is claimed on the spot through HICAPS.
