It’s completely normal to experience some very minor speech changes in the first few days of wearing your first aligners, such as a lisp.
You will find you acclimatise within a matter of days, with your speech returning to normal.
Straighten your teeth with a metal-free and invisible set of aligners that gives you the freedom to eat whatever you like during treatment.
Invisalign® is the revolutionary system that allows just that.
Invisalign® is a series of custom-made aligners. These aligners are worn in a sequence, with each new aligner moving your teeth into a pre-planned position. Once all of the aligners in the sequence have been worn (they are swapped over every 2 weeks), you will then need to wear a retainer at night to prevent your teeth from moving back out of place.
Every 6 weeks, your dentist will check your teeth over to make sure they are moving into the correct positions.
One of the main reasons our patients love Invisalign® is the lifestyle freedom the treatment affords them. Not only do Invisalign® aligners pose minimal alteration to the way your teeth look (since they are transparent aligners), but you can simply remove them each time you need to eat and brush.
This is a luxury that fixed braces do not allow, and one of the reasons so many adults increasingly choose to have their teeth straightened. Invisalign® is truly a teeth-straightening system for the modern adult.

Crowded teeth are a condition where you do not have enough room for your teeth to fit normally. This can cause plaque or tartar and other harmful bacteria to build up as it is harder for you to brush and floss well.
Gaps between teeth are when there is extra space between two or more of your teeth. This can cause pockets between your teeth and gums, causing food to get stuck and making them tender and sore. This might also lead to gum disease.
An open bite is when your upper and lower teeth don't touch when you close your mouth. An open bite can make it hard for you to chew or difficult to bite even the most common of foods like apples.
An underbite is when you close your mouth, and your lower front teeth are in front of your upper teeth. In many cases, this is actually a problem with your lower jaw being too far forward. An underbite can make it hard to chew properly and speak clearly, and it might cause your teeth to wear down more quickly.
An overbite is when your upper front teeth overlap with your lower front teeth. Most people have at least a little overbite. When your overbite is too large, your dentist might tell you that you have a deep bite. This can cause problems, from your teeth wearing down to pain in your jaw.
A crossbite is when you close your mouth, and yet some of your upper teeth sit inside your lower teeth rather than on the outside. A crossbite can make your teeth wear down or chip. It can also make your gums start to recede or make little notches above your gum line. This kind of damage can lead to painful gum problems or even bone loss.
Many people worry about the cost of Invisalign® braces, and so we have devised a number of payment plans to help you afford the right treatment with Invisalign®.
Learn MoreWe can create a 3D image of your teeth in just minutes using an iTero scanner, a leading digital scanner from the makers of Invisalign® clear aligners.
You will find you acclimatise within a matter of days, with your speech returning to normal.
The aligners are made from transparent polycrystalline alumina, a clear BPA-free plastic with smooth curves and grooves.
This is custom-shaped using digital impressions of your teeth, and no metal wires or brackets are included in the design (these can be obtrusive for many patients).
This gives you a substantial window in which to eat and brush each day.
The designation is awarded by Align Technology, the company behind the innovation of Invisalign.
