- The great news is that the field of orthodontics has come a long way over the past few decades. Thanks to Invisalign (the most popular US brand), it is now possible to use near-invisible removable aligners or invisible braces instead of fixed braces to straighten teeth.
- As they are removable you can brush and floss your teeth exactly as you normally would, allowing you to keep your teeth and gums healthy while you straighten and perfect your smile.
- As an Invisalign premium provider, smylife will develop a series of aligners custom made just for you. We use state of–the-art 3D printers create a series of aligners that are customized to fit only you and your changing smile.
- Each set of clear braces is worn for around two weeks, removing them only when you are eating, drinking, brushing, or flossing. You will visit us every six to eight weeks to check in and ensure the straightening process is progressing as it should. Over the weeks and months, as your invisible aligners are changed, your teeth will gradually move and straighten.
- The total treatment time typically ranges between 6 and 15 months, after which you will be able to reveal your perfectly straight smile to world!!
Who is Invisalign for?
- Invisalign is for anybody whose smile requirements can be met with this advanced alignment method. We recommend it to professionals and celebrities keen to keep their treatment private, but also those whose self confidence has already taken a battering because of their not-so-perfect smile.
- While lots of people are happy with conventional braces, some shy away and put off treatment because, for the foreseeable future, this method makes them as self conscious as their wonky teeth. This is where Invisalign comes to the rescue- a straightforward, discreet, comfortable solution with visible results. With Invisalign, people have no idea you are having your teeth straightened.
As an Invisalign patient, you will be in famous company: David Gandy, Tom Cruise, Khloe Kardashian and Oprah Winfrey are just a few celebrities who have used Invisalign to perfect their smiles.

- There are two main types of retainer- fixed / bonded & removable.
- What is a retainer & how important is it that I wear it??
- Retainers are designed to keep your teeth straight & can either be removable or fixed. Now that your teeth are straight, if you don’t wear your retainers, your teeth are likely to drift towards their original positions. If this does happen it may be difficult or impossible to correct.
How long will I have to wear the retainers ?
- Normally age changes occur in the human body; in the mouth, these changes show up as gum recession, increased lower front teeth crowding and increased turning of twisted or rotated teeth. Having orthodontic treatments does not grant immunity to these normal changes. These age changes vary in severity.
